72. Rebuild Years: When Life Falls Apart

72. Rebuild Years: When Life Falls Apart

So many of my clients are in the same exact season right now. Divorce, career pivot, moving countries, leaving corporate, becoming a mom. The life they used to have is gone and the next one hasn't taken shape yet. And they're just sitting in the middle going, what the fuck is even happening. I'm right there with you. I got deported from Australia with 28 days notice after eight years of building a life there. I left a relationship my visa hinged on. I walked away from a corporate career with stock options and a team I loved to start something with zero guarantees. Now I'm in Bali with no idea where I'll be in two weeks, and I had to learn fast that this in between season isn't something to survive. It's the actual work. In this episode I'm breaking down what a rebuilding year really is, why most people waste theirs, and what separates the women who come out the other side completely transformed from the ones who stay stuck. Save this for when life feels like it's falling apart. This is the pep talk you need for your rebuilding year. ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

71. Be More Selfish: Here's Why

I've been thinking about the word "selfish" a lot lately. And I want to drag it out of the trash can where society has put it and actually look at what it means, because I think we've gotten this wildly wrong. The women in my life who are "selfish" about their self-care? They have the body you want, the energy you want, the presence you want. And the women who sacrifice everything for everyone? They're exhausted, inflamed, resentful, and often dealing with autoimmune conditions they keep ignoring. This episode is about blowing up the story that putting yourself first is a moral failure. Because it's not. It's actually the most strategic and selfless thing you will ever do. ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

70. Big Tech Careers, Brain Fog & Burnout: Chelsey's Story

I met Chelsey when we worked together in eco at Reebok. She was the tech lead person everyone from the team needed at all times. Always on, always needed, always giving her time and working late. Duncan Nitro cold brew in hand, a protein bar in the other, convinced she was being healthy. She came to me about two years ago completely burned out, anxiety through the roof, carrying a layer of fluff she couldn't move. Managing accounts at Amazon, Google, Nike, with her nervous system running on edge 24/7. Anxiety was her baseline. She was working out, lifting, running, and her body wasn't responding. Her goal, written in her journal on day one: just have more good days than bad. She just showed me her Oura ring. Sleep crown almost every night. And she lost nearly 30 lbs on the way. This one is for you if you're in tech, e-comm, or any role that never really lets you clock off. ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

69. The Vacation Crash: Why You're Exhausted Even on Vacation

I used to come home from vacation more exhausted than when I left. Five days in Montana with my family, the Ariana Grande collab had just gone live at Reebok, I finally slept 10 hours and woke up horizontal for three days feeling worse than on my busiest office days. At the time I thought I was just broken. Turns out I was running on stress hormones as my primary fuel source. And the second the threat disappeared, my body crashed and sent me the bill. If vacation is supposed to be rest, why do you come home feeling destroyed? Let's unpack what's up with your hormones and how to fix it.   LINKS * Join the retreat waitlist: https://chelseamcleod.com/retreat-waitlist  * Electrolytes: https://us.fullscript.com/plans/healthyhustle-pantry-essentials [https://us.fullscript.com/plans/healthyhustle-pantry-essentials] * Blue Blocker Glasses: use code CMHEALTH for discount https://boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses?rfsn=7236550.af5a97 [https://boncharge.com/collections/blue-light-blocking-glasses?rfsn=7236550.af5a97] * Opal - to block apps on phone (code PAXEZ 30 days free): https://apps.apple.com/app/id1497465230?mt=8  ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?

68. Glowing Up After a Toxic Workplace: Tanya's Story

I get DMs almost daily from women who've done the naturopath, the supplements, the spin classes, the green smoothies, the therapy. Done everything, spent thousands, and still feel like their body is just...not cooperating. Tanya is one of those women. She had a wellness blog. She knew the stuff. She was consistent. And her body still didn't give a shit. When I ran into her in the Sydney Botanical Gardens 18 months ago, she chased me down and said "I need to do your course." And I said, babe, I've got you, let's walk and talk. What followed was one of the most layered cases I've worked with. PCOS, insulin resistance, ferritin under 30, cortisol through the roof, a mum going through chemo, a toxic workplace hemorrhaging cash, a relationship she didn't realize was abusive. And a nervous system that had been in survival mode for well over a decade. This is not a weight loss story. It's a root cause story. And the ending is genuinely cool. ☀️ For even more hormone healing & down and dirty tips to release weight and feel amaze, let’s connect on Instagram,  [https://www.instagram.com/healthywithchels/] TikTok, [https://www.tiktok.com/@healthywithchels]& LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/chelsea-mcleod]   ✨ Grab your Busy Girl’s Guide to Hormonal Weight Loss [https://chelseamcleod.com/busy-girl-guide]    Ready to figure out if your hormones are at the root of your weight loss, energy, sleep, or cravings struggle?
