Have you ever looked around at your life and thought, “It’s fine… so why do I feel so off?”
You’re not depressed, exactly. Not sick. But something feels… off.
You’re tired when you wake up, even after 8 hours.
Your emotions are more reactive than you’d like (hi, random tears or unexpected rage).
Focus? Forget it.
Your body is begging for coffee at 10 am and wine at 7.
And the worst part? You can’t pinpoint why.
If that’s you, you’re not alone—and you’re definitely not broken.
Let’s talk about what’s really going on.
What you’re feeling is more common than most women admit. Especially in our 30s and 40s, when we’re juggling careers, caregiving, maybe living abroad or starting over… and quietly wondering why things feel so heavy.
These symptoms aren’t random. They’re signals.
Your body isn’t sabotaging you—it’s trying to communicate something.
The Silent Saboteur: Stress Accumulation
Most of us think of stress as a big, dramatic thing—deadlines, emergencies, conflict.
But for women 30+, stress often looks like:
- Constant decision fatigue
- Trying to do everything right (and not drop any balls)
- A to-do list that refills itself
- Hormonal shifts that feel like a plot twist
Your body keeps score. And over time, the effects of stress accumulate, especially when there’s no real time to reset.
I’ve Been There Too.
When I first started feeling “off,” I blamed everything from my pillow to perimenopause. I tried more supplements, stricter routines, and even said “yes” to things that drained me because I thought more effort would fix it.
Spoiler alert: It didn’t.
The breakthrough came when I realized my body wasn’t the enemy—it was the messenger.
Here’s What Helped Me Start to Feel Normal Again:
1. Gentle morning routines (no scrolling allowed)
Even 5–10 minutes of stillness or movement helped calm the chaos before it began.
2. Mineral support + hydration
So basic, so overlooked. When I added magnesium and real hydration to my day, my brain fog started lifting.
3. Using essential oils strategically
I’ll never stop talking about how oils like lavender, frankincense, and bergamot literally helped me breathe deeper and feel grounded.
4. Learning how to switch out of “survival mode”
Through specific daily habits (the same ones I now teach), I learned how to signal safety to my body—and wow, the difference that makes.
