Courage & Purpose

Ep 22: Your Body Is Speaking—Are You Listening? Rethinking Stress, Energy & Movement


Listen Later

In this energizing episode of Courage & Purpose, I’m joined once again by Marcy Luna—Certified High Performance Coach and Exercise Physiologist—for a conversation that will completely reframe how you think about energy.

We go beyond the basics of sleep and nutrition and dive into how your nervous system, stress levels, and emotional state directly affect how you generate, protect, and sustain energy throughout your day.

Marcy and I unpack how body awareness, recovery, and movement are key to high performance—not just in your workouts, but in your relationships, leadership, and creativity. If you’ve been waking up exhausted despite doing all the “right things,” this episode is your wake-up call.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why energy is your greatest asset—and how to structure your day around protecting it

The surprising role of hormones (like cortisol and irisin) in how you perform and feel

How to shift from punishment and hustle to nervous system-supported growth

Why fatigue, cravings, and resistance aren’t weakness—they’re signals

Tools for checking in with your body and making aligned adjustments without self-sabotage

The difference between survival energy vs. sustainable energy—and how to feel the difference

🧠 Key Insight:

“Your body is always talking—fatigue, cravings, and resistance are often signals, not flaws. Energy is your most precious currency, and how you use it determines the life you create.”

🌟 Whether you’re leading a business, a team, or your family—this episode will help you reclaim your energy and show up with clarity, confidence, and intention.
