132 // Spoon Theory & Hashimoto's Fatigue

Ever feel like you're constantly running on empty, struggling to explain why simple tasks sometimes feel impossibly hard with Hashimoto's?

Living with Hashimoto's can feel like an endless battle with your energy levels, especially when others don't understand why you can't "just push through." This episode introduces the Spoon Theory created by Christine Miserandino. It's a simple yet profound way to understand and talk about your daily energy that will change how you navigate life with Hashimoto's.

 

Join me as we explore:

• how this theory can help communicate our invisible battles to family and friends.
• how to ask for support when we run out of "spoons."
• tips to manage fatigue better and discuss how understanding our energy limits is a strength, not a weakness!

Listen now, because understanding your energy limits isn't weakness, it's wisdom.
