🔍 In this episode, we unpack:

• What your adrenal glands are and what they produce
• How your adrenals step in to carry hormone production during perimenopause and postmenopause
• Why mitochondria are your cellular “powerhouses” and what happens when they shift into the cell danger response
• The difference between functional vs. dysfunctional mitochondria—and what each state means for your energy
• Why cortisol is both good and bad
• Why you may feel more exhausted after exercise
• Ways to restore your fight-or-flight response: blood sugar balance, fat digestion (see Ep.14), and replenishing outlier hormones like pregnenolone, DHEA, and progesterone 
• How poor fat digestion sabotages hormone building blocks, neurotransmitters, and even cell membranes

📖 Scripture + Reflection:
Matthew 11:28–30 (The Message)
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

✨ Sometimes the exhaustion we feel isn’t just physical—it’s a signal that our bodies and souls are both crying out for true rest.
