My Biggest Health Wake-Up Call Wasn't What I Expected with Dr. Michelle Peris (Part 1)

Delighted to have Dr. Michelle Peris, host of the Wild Medicine podcast, naturopathic doctor, speaker and women’s empowerment advocate, back for another 2-part conversation! In this episode, we dive into the topic of recovery, something that so many high achievers, entrepreneurs and ambitious women quietly struggle with.After recently completing a comprehensive executive health assessment, one thing that became crystal clear to me was working on my recovery and rest! That realization led Dr. Michelle and I into an honest conversation about burnout, nervous system resilience, and why taking care of ourselves isn't something we earn after working hard. It's an essential part of performing and feeling our best.In this episode, we explore:• Why recovery isn't the opposite of productivity, it's what allows you to sustain it.• The role nervous system resilience plays in stress, performance and overall health.• Dr. Michelle's personal burnout journey and the difficult decisions that ultimately changed her life.• Common signs of burnout that are often overlooked, especially by high performers.• How breathwork, presence and simple daily practices can help you respond to stress instead of constantly reacting to it.One of my biggest takeaways from this conversation was the reminder that we don't earn rest after we've exhausted ourselves. Recovery is part of the process, not a reward at the end of it.I'd love to know what resonated most with you!
