EPISODE 152 - Signs your body may be in survival mode
Do you feel exhausted, stuck, or like your body just isn’t cooperating no matter what you do?
You might be insurvival mode—and you’re not alone. Many women are unknowingly running on cortisol and stress, keeping them in a constant state of fight-or-flight.
In this episode, we dive into:
What survival mode actually is and why it’s more common than you think
Physical signs your body is stuck in survival mode, like:
- Struggling to eat in the morning
- Chronic bloating and stubborn weight gain
- Hormonal symptoms like PMS, PCOS, irregular cycles
- Hair loss, thinning or acne
- Cravings for sugar, caffeine or salty foods that you just can’t shake
- Sleep issues, brain fog, and feeling exhausted no matter how much you rest
But also:
- Avoidance patterns in relationships, finances, or emotions
- Overthinking, decision fatigue, self sabotage, and perfectionism
- Feeling stuck in repetitive patterns, despite wanting change
- Struggling with boundaries, numbing with food or your phone, and feeling disconnected from your body
Why willpower alone isn’t enough to break free from these patterns
How your nervous system and subconscious beliefs can keep you trapped in survival mode and repeating patterns - but they are also the answer to get you unstuck
The deeper work needed to shift from just surviving to truly thriving
Your body isn’t failing you—it’s trying to keep you safe. But youdon’t have to stay stuck here.
