Why do some people drink a whole cup of coffee… then knock out like a phone on 1%? Funny on the surface, but darker underneath. This episode digs into hyperarousal fatigue — the survival-mode exhaustion that caffeine can’t touch. We’ll talk childhood stress, emotional burnout, and why some of us treat coffee less like a stimulant and more like a hug we never got. A comforting, honest look at the kind of tired you can’t fix with a nap… or a venti cold brew.
