Episode 15 — What I Wish I Knew in My 30s

Episode 15 — What I Wish I Knew in My 30sIn this more personal episode, I share the lessons I wish someone had told me in my 30s — when I believed health meant pushing harder, doing more, and staying disciplined at all costs.We talk about how chronic stress, under-fueling, overtraining, and lack of rest quietly impact hormones, energy, and resilience over time — and why midlife often becomes the moment when the body asks for a different kind of support.This conversation is about shifting from control to partnership with your body — and learning to listen before burnout forces you to slow down.In this episode, we cover:Why pushing through exhaustion backfires long termThe hidden stress effects of calorie restrictionWhy rest is a biological need, not lazinessHow sleep, alcohol, and late-night habits affect recoveryLearning to interpret your body’s signals instead of overriding themIf you’ve ever felt like what used to work for your health no longer does — this episode will help you understand why.If this episode resonated, share it with a friend who might need this reminder too.
