Why Cortisol Is Wrecking Your Sleep and Health – Solutions from Stress Nation|331
from Fit Girl Magic | Healthy Living For Women Over 40 · host Kim Barnes Jefferson
This week I sat down with Justin Hai, the guy who basically said "yeah… stress is the villain in your midlife story" and then wrote a whole book proving it. Spoiler: he's right. We dig into: • Why cortisol is out here acting like a drama queen • The sleep-stress-hormone Bermuda Triangle making belly fat stick around • How tech is low-key ruining your metabolism • The truth about hot flashes that'll make you rethink what's really "stressful" • Why weights beat cardio every damn time • How to set yourself up for a night of actual sleep, instead of scrolling your soul away Plus, Justin shares what REALLY works for calming that buzzing nervous system without giving up your phone forever or moving to a cave. If you've ever said "this is just my life now"… listen up. It's not. PRESS PLAY Then come tell us your biggest "ohhhh THAT'S why" moment.
