Episode Synopsis

Have you ever wondered why you’re doing everything “right” but still feel unwell?I'm joined by Justin Janoska for a conversation that I know will expand how you think about your health. We explore the complexities of autoimmune conditions, particularly Hashimoto’s, and why these illnesses are increasingly impacting women in midlife. But more importantly, we unpack what’s often missed in conversations about health: how your emotional patterns, the stress you carry, and your lifelong habits of doing more can quietly shape your wellbeing.Justin shares how chronic dieting can contribute to chronic stress and autoimmunity, and why it’s time to rethink the “fix it with food” mindset so many women feel stuck in. We talk about the importance of silence, solitude, and stillness - three things many of us resist, but that can change everything.We’re unwrapping in our conversation:Why autoimmune conditions are on the rise, particularly for women in midlife.How chronic dieting and restriction can add to the stress driving illness.The role of hormonal changes in menopause and why they can be the “final straw”.Why your emotional patterns and history matter in your health journey.How perfectionism and people-pleasing drain your energy and affect your wellbeing.The importance of silence, solitude, and stillness for true healing.The mind-body connection and how it impacts your health more than you think.Why it’s not about doing more, but often about learning to do less.About Justin Janoska:Justin is on a mission to revolutionise the way we approach healing from autoimmune disease.
