If your burnout, brain fog, or body has been trying to tell you something, you’re being invited to listen.
In this episode, Executive Life Strategist Jessica Cumming sits down with Anne Trager, executive coach, 5-time entrepreneur, and national martial arts champion at 50. Together, they explore how the body’s “symptoms” are really signals—data points calling you back to balance, energy, and self-understanding.
Anne’s story moves from early loss and reinvention to global entrepreneurship, biohacking, and becoming a French National Champion in martial arts at midlife. It’s proof that clarity doesn’t come from pushing harder, it comes from paying attention.
