Lately, in my own quest for health answers, I've observed a pattern with people, specifically women, facing mysterious or persistent health issues.They’re all high-functioning. Thoughtful. Disciplined. Self-aware.They move their bodies. They nourish their families. They lead in their work. They have supportive partnerships.And yet, something’s breaking down.In nearly every case—including my own—the common thread I've found in every potential diagnosis isn’t just age or genetics. It’s stress. But not just stress from “a lot going on.” We’re talking decades of performance. Years of pushing. A lifetime of being “on.” It’s like we’ve been conditioned to carry the world, and our bodies are finally saying, “I can’t do this anymore.”We were never meant to move at this pace. We were never meant to feel like the world would fall apart if we slowed down.But now? The price is showing up in symptoms, discomfort, and a body that no longer responds the way it used to.What if the health issues we’re facing aren’t random—or just “part of getting older”—but the cumulative effect of a lifestyle we were never meant to sustain?As the saying goes...You can have 1000 problems in your life until you have a health problem. Then you only have one.This week’s post is about the quiet consequences of decades of stress, performance and pushing through. And the lifestyle design shifts that are sometimes the only real way forward.✨ Members - simply scroll down for a personal guided reflection and links to the community conversations this week.
