    Chronic Stress Symptoms: Why You Feel Fine Until You Don’t

    Stress doesn’t always feel like stress. Many people living with chronic stress symptoms are still functioning, coping, and getting through their days until suddenly they can’t.

    How to Get Your Energy Back When Rest Isn’t Working

    If you’ve been resting more, doing less, and still feel tired, this episode explains why rest alone often isn’t enough to restore energy and what actually helps. In this episode of The Good Health Podcast, Nicole Good unpacks why low energy can persist even when you’re doing “all the right things,” and why trying harder or adding more routines often makes exhaustion worse instead of better. 04:05 — Why Rest Alone Doesn’t Restore Energy 06:15 — The 3 Pillars of Safe Energy Rebuilding 06:50 — Pillar 1: Timing (Working With Your Body’s Rhythms) 08:25 — Pillar 2: Foundations (Stabilising Before Optimising) 10:00 — Pillar 3: Feedback (Listening to Your Body’s Signals) 11:45 — The Core Problem With Energy Recovery 13:15 — What the Good Health Studio Is Designed to Support You’ll learn what’s really happening inside the body when energy is low, including how stress signalling, blood sugar instability, sleep disruption, and nervous system overload can prevent rest from becoming restorative.

    The 4 Most Common Low Energy Patterns (And How to Recognise Yours)

    Low energy isn’t one single experience, and that’s why so much generic advice fails. In this third episode of the Energy series, we explain the four most common low energy patterns we see repeatedly in clinic, helping you understand why your fatigue shows up the way it does. Rather than labels or diagnoses, this episode focuses on biological patterns that reflect how the body adapts to stress, illness, inflammation, and prolonged demand. 02:50 — Why Low Energy Looks Different in Different People 05:20 — Pattern 1: Wired But Tired (Chronic Stress & Nervous System Overdrive) 13:40 — Pattern 2: Flat Fatigue (Energy Conservation & Reduced Output) 20:10 — Pattern 3: Post-Viral or Immune-Driven Fatigue 26:10 — Pattern 4: Burnout-Style Fatigue (Loss of Adaptive Capacity) 30:50 — What All Low Energy Patterns Have in Common Each pattern is explained in clear, relatable terms so you can see yourself in the physiology — not judge yourself for it. If you’ve ever felt tired all day but alert at night, struggled to recover after illness, felt heavy and unmotivated for no obvious reason, or wondered why rest doesn’t restore your energy anymore, this episode will help you make sense of it.

    The Biology of Energy: Mitochondria, Hormones, Blood Sugar & Inflammation

    Energy is often treated as a mindset problem, something to fix with motivation, discipline, or better routines. But real, sustainable energy is created inside the body. In this episode, we break down the biology of energy, explaining why fatigue is rarely about one single issue and why “doing all the right things” doesn’t always translate into feeling energized. 00:50 – Energy Is Not a Mindset Problem 03:00 – How Energy Is Created at a Cellular Level 06:00 – Cortisol, Circadian Rhythm & Energy Timing 08:40 – Blood Sugar Instability & Energy Crashes 11:10 – Low-Grade Inflammation & Immune Activation 13:30 – A New Framework for Supporting Energy If you struggle with persistent low energy, afternoon slumps, feeling wired at night but exhausted in the morning, or fatigue that doesn’t improve with sleep or nutrition alone, this episode will give you a clear, systems-based framework for understanding what your body is responding to.

    Why Feeling Tired All the Time Isn’t Normal (What Your Body Is Telling You)

    Feeling tired all the time has become so common that many people stop questioning it, but persistent fatigue is not normal, and it isn’t a personal failure. In this episode of The Good Health Podcast, we reframe fatigue as data, not a character flaw. You’ll learn why low energy is often your body’s way of communicating that something needs support, rather than a sign that you need more discipline, motivation, or caffeine. We walk through the early warning signs of fatigue most people overlook, including unrefreshing sleep, brain fog, reliance on stimulants, crashing after work or weekends, and taking longer to recover from stress or illness. This episode also explains the cost of pushing through fatigue, and why compensation (running on stress hormones and adrenaline) is not the same as true recovery. 00:50 – Why Feeling Tired All the Time Isn’t Normal 05:10 – What Actually Determines Your Energy Levels 06:50 – Early Signs of Fatigue Most People Ignore 09:20 – Compensation vs Recovery 10:40 – The Long-Term Cost of Pushing Through Fatigue 12:20 – A New Way to Respond to Fatigue If you’ve ever wondered why rest doesn’t seem to restore your energy anymore, or why “I’ll rest later” stops working, this conversation will help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
