197. You Think You're Not Stressed Until You Experience This. Here’s What Your Body Is Trying to Tell You

This episode is for you if you keep telling yourself, “I’m not that stressed” but your body is saying otherwise. When I talk to my clients, especially Asian women and women of color who are first or second gen in leadership and holding a lot. They rarely say, “I’m overwhelmed.” They say things like, “It is what it is,” or “I just have a lot on my plate right now.”

And in that process, they’re skipping meals, running on low energy, starting Monday feeling like they’re catching up from the week before, their brain feels foggy… and they’re wondering why they don’t feel like themselves anymore when they look in the mirror.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how stress is already showing up in your day-to-day life even if you don’t label it that way and what it actually looks like to start taking care of yourself in a season where your capacity is low.

Here’s what we get into:

- The small habits that are actually signs you’re stressed

- The first place to focus when everything feels overwhelming, so you can start getting your energy back without trying to fix your whole routine

- How to regain your energy back with the time you have
