The Day Your Body Betrays You

There’s a kind of tired that sleep doesn’t touch. In this episode, I talk about the exhaustion that comes from living in a body that needs more than the world expects you to give. Not just physical fatigue but emotional, mental, and nervous-system tired. We talk about why rest doesn’t always help, how chronic illness changes your relationship with energy, and what it feels like to be expected to “push through” when there’s nothing left to push with. This isn’t about solutions or productivity. It’s about naming something many of us live with every day and finally feeling less alone in it.
