80. What actually happens when you do too much

from Break the Rules · host Annie Ellis

Ever had one of those weeks where everything just feels harder? You’re more irritated by people. Snapping at the kids. Feeling less patient. More “on edge.” Food feels louder. Your body feels more triggering. Tiny things suddenly feel massive. You feel less like yourself somehow… but you can’t really explain why.Most women assume they just need to push through…Or maybe you just brush it aside as “hormones”But what if those moments are actually telling you something really important and can be avoided in the future?In this episode, I’m talking about the signs that you might be doing too much, physically, mentally or emotionally and repeatedly walking the path to burnout, hitting a wall or bingeing through the cupboards at 9pm again…especially if you’re someone who’s high-achieving, used to carrying a lot, or has a complicated relationship with food and exerciseWe’re getting into:why the usual signs of overdoing it often go unnoticedthe subtle shifts that tend to happen long before burnout or breakdownwhy exercise affects different women completely differentlythe hidden emotional weight movement can start carryingand the question I now use with both myself and clients instead of “am I doing too much?”If you’ve ever felt like your capacity for life keep dipping in and out and you’re not sure why and it creeps into your relationship with food, your ability to handle things or your relationships with the people around you, this one’s for youAnd if this conversation feels SUPER familiar and you’re realising your relationship with food, body and movement are taking up far more space in your life than you want or not giving you the sustainable health and joy you wish they would - 1:1 coaching is where we change that - apply here
