Healthcare Burnout + Hormones: What's Actually Going On? With Guest Expert Sarah Salain!
from Shift Happens: The Health Podcast for Healthcare Workers
I'm sitting down with Sarah Salain, RN (aka the queen of hormones) to talk about what's actually happening in your body when you're working long shifts, living in fight-or-flight, skipping meals, and wondering why your energy, mood, cycle, or even fertility feels off. Sarah shares her own ER-to-holistic-health pivot after burnout + health issues hit hard, and we get into the real connection between stress, cortisol, progesterone, and why your body stops caring about "thriving" when it's stuck in survival mode. We also keep it real about making hormone-supportive choices without needing a million supplements or a Whole Foods budget — plus we nerd out about cyclical nutrition, the Dirty Dozen/Clean 15, and of course… border collies (because apparently we both have a type 😅).
