If you’ve been asking yourself “Why does everything feel harder than it should?” or “Why can’t I just get it together lately?”—you’re not alone.This episode unpacks what’s really happening during those low-capacity seasons when life feels heavy, even if nothing specific is “wrong.” We’ll look at what might be affecting your energy—like nervous system fatigue, emotional overload, or the pressure to keep pushing through—and why these dips don’t mean you’re failing.If you're exhausted but can’t explain why, stuck in a loop of self-judgment, or just trying to figure out how to move through a hard season without making it worse—this episode offers a grounded perspective.We’re not trying to fix it. We’re just naming what’s real—so you can stop internalizing what isn’t yours.🧘🏼♀️ If that’s where you are right now, you might also appreciate Claim Your Calm, a 15-day audio series with simple ways to reconnect with yourself when life feels off.
