The cruelest lie women over 40 tell themselves is that their exhaustion is a character flaw. That if they just had more willpower, more discipline, more grit, they'd be doing better. In this episode, Jason Cook dismantles that lie completely — and replaces it with the physiological and emotional truth of what depletion actually is, where it comes from, and what it takes to genuinely recover from it. This episode is for every woman who has called herself lazy when the real word was depleted.
