Episode 106 - When "I'm Fine" is the Warning Sign - Interview with Dr. Stephanie Stoddart

What happens when you keep caring for everyone else while ignoring the signals coming from your own body?In this episode of The Nourished Life for Christian Women, Tracy talks with Dr. Stephanie Stoddart, a dentist and coach who experienced burnout after years of pushing through fatigue, skipped meals, physical pain, and the pressure to keep performing.Dr. Steph shares how her body eventually forced her to slow down—and what she learned about rest, faith, self-trust, and the cost of believing everyone else’s needs matter more than your own.Together, they explore:- Why high-achieving women often overlook the early signs of burnout- How your body communicates through fatigue, tension, pain, and uneasiness- Why it can feel selfish to pause when other people genuinely need you- The difference between noticing your body’s signals and actually responding to them- How faith and a deeper relationship with God can change the way you view rest- Why you do not have to earn your right to take a break -How to recognize when the life that looks good on paper is no longer nourishing you- Why small discomforts can be information rather than something to judge or ignoreThis conversation is especially for Christian women, caregivers, professionals, mothers, and high achievers who are tired of pushing through but are not sure how to slow down without feeling guilty.Your body should not have to scream before you are willing to listen.Pause. Notice. Pay attention. What you are feeling may be an invitation—not a failure.Connect with Dr. Stephanie Stoddart:https://www.stoddartcoaching.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/stoddartdmd/Email me at [email protected] Or text (530)329-4234 for more info.Join my email list here: https://bit.ly/NBS_Email_List
