EP 153: How to Stop Making Excuses and Start Seeing Results

Reset Your Life: Healing Through the Chaos is a personal growth and mental health podcast for burned-out, overwhelmed women who feel stuck, exhausted, or caught in a constant state of pressure, emotional overload, and survival mode.

Hosted by life coach Eva Rodriguez, the podcast focuses on burnout recovery, nervous system regulation, emotional regulation, and personal reinvention. Each episode helps women understand what's happening beneath the surface when they feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, mentally exhausted, or trapped in repeating patterns — and how to reset your life in a way that creates real, doable change.

Episodes explore nervous system dysregulation, chronic stress, emotional exhaustion, and overwhelm, along with practical tools to help listeners reset their nervous system, rebuild self-trust, and move into their next chapter with clarity and intention. 

Topics include subconscious rewiring, hypnotherapy, somatic healing, mindset work, and identity-level change to help break cycles that lead to burnout and long-term stress.

Reset Your Life goes beyond coping strategies. The show focuses on identity shifts, future self work, embodiment, self-concept, boundaries, and intentional decision-making. Conversations cover personal reinvention at any age, healing emotional wounds, releasing limiting beliefs, and becoming a calmer, more grounded version of yourself — even during demanding seasons of life.

The podcast also supports women with ADHD and high achiever burnout. As a late-diagnosed woman with ADHD, Eva brings both professional training and lived experience to conversations about emotional intensity, overstimulation, ADHD burnout, nervous system support, productivity without burnout, and routines that actually work for ADHD brains.

Listeners will hear practical, compassionate guidance on resetting your life after burnout, regulating emotions, creating routines that support mental and emotional health, and making changes that fit real life — not perfection. This is a space for women who want to heal while still living their lives and build a future that feels calmer, clearer, and more supportive.

If you're looking for a podcast about burnout recovery, nervous system healing, emotional regulation, ADHD overwhelm, self-trust, or personal reinvention, Reset Your Life is for you.

Previously known as Lose the Weight, Keep the Curves, this podcast reflects an intentional evolution toward healing from burnout, nervous system regulation, and whole-life transformation.
