Why the Fast Food Crew Feels Fine and The Health Conscious are Stuck in Symptom Cycles

Why do some people in the wellness space seem always sick, those of us doing “everything right” are exhausted, bloated, anxious, and burned out? While others who eat fast food, junk food, never practice mindfulness, and never meditate, feel totally fine, like my husband?

In this episode, I dive into the wellness paradox and breaks down why the health-conscious are often stuck in cycles of symptoms. From hyper-awareness to nervous system overload, to the invisible mental load women carry daily, it’s not just what you eat, it’s what you believe and what you carry.

I explore how:

• ​ Stress and over-responsibility affect female hormones and gut health
• ​ Wellness can quietly become a new identity that keeps us in “healing” mode and constantly personal development mode.
• ​ The pressure to be perfect in health adds more stress than it solves

This one’s for every woman who’s ever thought: Why am I doing all this and still not feeling well

I also talk about the hidden side of chronic symptoms. You’ll learn how belief, stress, and mindset shape the body, and why doing all the “right” things isn’t the full story.
