2. The Cortisol Panic Is Getting Out of Hand

Cortisol gets blamed for everything right now: belly fat, poor sleep, stress, fatigue, hormone issues, and even people’s workouts. But is cortisol really the villain, or has the internet turned a normal human hormone into another thing to fear? In this episode, Coach JK shares his perspective on the cortisol conversation in a way that is less panic-driven and more practical. He looks at what cortisol is, when it is actually useful, where the fear-mongering goes too far, and why a 30-second social media checklist should not be treated like a diagnosis. This episode is for anyone who has heard about “cortisol belly,” wondered if their workouts are stressing their body too much, or felt like every symptom online somehow gets turned into a hormone problem.
