Women rush, all the time and it’s affecting our mental and physical health. Why do we do it? The answer may surprise you. In this episode the wonderful Dr Libby unpacks Rushing Woman’s Syndrome with her trademark compassion, scientific insights and practical advice. We talked about the stress response, which fuel (glucose or fat) the body uses preferentially depending on the state of our nervous system, weight gain, hormones, the relaxation response, the question we can all ask ourselves to answer the question I posed above and much more.
