031- From Burnout to Balance: Micro-Pivots to fight fatigue

Ever wake up already exhausted, wondering where your energy went? If you’ve been surviving on caffeine and sugar but still hitting that afternoon slump, it’s time for a reset. 

In this episode of Smash the Crash, we’re tackling midlife energy crashes—what’s causing them and how to pivot in just five minutes a day (without relying on another cup of coffee!).

🔹 Why midlife energy dips happen – Hormone fluctuations, stress, and blood sugar roller coasters
🔹 The power of protein – How adding just one protein source to your meal can stabilize energy
🔹 Mindset shifts – Overthinking and decision fatigue are real—here’s how to break the cycle
🔹 Simple movement strategies – Why just five minutes of intentional movement can change everything
🔹 The long-term impact of inaction – Brain fog, exhaustion, and cravings don’t have to be your norm

Challenge of the Week: Pick one small tweak—protein at breakfast, a deep-breathing break, or five minutes of movement—and start today!  tag me on IG @itsMelissaHinman
