237. What’s Secretly Draining Your Energy in Midlife

You’re doing all the “right” things—getting enough sleep, eating healthy, even squeezing in workouts—but you still feel tired all the time. Sound familiar? In Episode 237: What’s Secretly Draining Your Energy in Midlife, we’re uncovering what’s really behind that constant fatigue—and why more effort isn’t the answer.

Midlife women are often told to try harder. Sleep more. Eat cleaner. Push through. But here’s the truth: your exhaustion might not be about what you’re doing—it’s about what’s quietly draining you. These are energy leaks—the hidden mental, emotional, and physical drains that slowly wear you down no matter how much you try to recharge.

Think of your energy like a bucket. You keep pouring in rest, food, and self-care, but if there are holes in the bottom, it’ll never stay full. This episode breaks down the three biggest energy leaks most midlife women deal with: saying yes to everything but yourself, mental overload and decision fatigue, and the “someday” mindset that delays your needs.

You’ll learn why doing more isn’t helping and what to do instead. We’ll shift your focus from trying to boost energy to protecting it and redirecting it toward what fuels you.

This episode isn’t about hustle—it’s about reclaiming your spark. You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective and practical ways to stop the leaks, protect your energy, and start feeling like yourself again.

Because you don’t need more motivation, you need a new strategy.

Ready to get your energy back, without doing more?

Then press play. Your midlife doesn’t have to feel like a never-ending to-do list. It’s time to make space for you.
