268. How Stress is Wrecking Your Health (Even If You're "Fine")

Описание: Book a FREE functional health discovery call HERE (https://calendly.com/tengesether/30min) .



You might say you’re “fine”… just tired.

Still functioning. Still leading. Still taking care of everyone.



But what if the symptoms you’ve been brushing off — fatigue, brain fog, bloating, hormone shifts, cravings, sleep issues — are actually signs of chronic stress living in your body?



In this episode, I begin a new series focused on one of the biggest root drivers of midlife health struggles: stress. Not just emotional stress — but the physiological stress response that affects digestion, hormones, blood sugar, immunity, and even how clearly we think and lead.



We talk about:




• Why stress is not just emotional — it’s biochemical






• How the stress response was designed for short-term survival, not long-term living






• What happens in the body when cortisol stays elevated






• Why digestion, hormones, weight, mood, and energy are often stress-related






• How chronic stress impacts the brain and leadership capacity






• Why your body isn’t broken — it has adapted






• What Scripture says about rest, striving, and God’s design for rhythm








If you’ve felt like your body is working against you lately, this episode offers a different perspective: your body may actually be trying to protect you.



Awareness isn’t diagnosis — it’s direction.

And healing often starts with understanding what stress has been doing behind the scenes.



I hope this episode blesses you!



Xoxo,



Tanya
