Jessica Frederick, licensed clinical social worker, yoga teacher, and somatic therapist, joins Jenni Berman for an important conversation about stress, emotional health, and the reality many high-functioning women face behind the words, “I’m fine.” Together, they dive into the connection between emotional well-being, cortisol, hormones, and whole-body health—bridging the gap between therapy and functional medicine. In this episode, they discuss how chronic stress can show up as fatigue, irritability, sleep struggles, anxiety, weight changes, and feeling “off,” even when life looks good on paper. Jessica shares her holistic approach to somatic therapy, helping clients reconnect with the body, regulate the stress response, and build tools that go beyond simply masking symptoms. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, stuck in survival mode, or like you’re carrying everything while trying to hold it all together, this episode is packed with practical takeaways and reminders that true healing starts by addressing the root cause—not just the symptoms.
