Listen "Is Stress Wrecking Your Health? Understanding Internal vs. External Stress + How to Actually Heal"
Episode Synopsis
Are you really "not stressed"—or have you just gotten used to living in survival mode? In this episode of The Wellness Effect, we dive deep into the sneaky ways stress shows up in the body (spoiler: it's not just anxiety and burnout). From hair loss and hormone imbalances to stubborn belly fat and gut issues, we break down the difference between internal and external stress and how to know when your body is waving the red flag. We unpack what's really going on with your HPA axis, why minerals and nourishment matter more than you think, and why rest isn't a luxury—it's essential for healing. If you've been feeling like something's "off" but can't pinpoint why, this episode is your roadmap to uncovering the root cause. In this episode, we discuss… What internal stress actually is (and how it mimics external stress in your body) Why cortisol isn't the villain—and how to support your adrenals for long-term resilience The real reasons so many women are undernourished (even if they're eating enough) How your environment, trauma, light exposure, and even your friendships affect your stress load What the HPA axis is and how it connects your gut, hormones, and nervous system Why you can't "out supplement" internal stress—and the foundational habits that move the needle How to start replenishing your body's "bank account" through food, sleep, nervous system support, and boundaries Resources & Links Mentioned S02E20 - Endocrine Disruptors: 5 Hidden Toxins That Could Be Wrecking Your Hormones HTMA and GI Map testing for deeper insight into mineral and gut health 12-Week Root Cause Reset Program — DM us on our Instagrams "RESET" to join Want more from us?
