207. Is Stress Killing You?! The Hidden Dangers of Chronic Stress and What You Can Do About It

 In this episode of [Your Podcast Name], Tanya dives deep into the surprising and dangerous health effects of both chronic and hidden stress. As Christian women in leadership and healthcare, we often wear invisible capes while juggling roles, expectations, and emotional burdens—leaving our bodies and spirits running on empty.

Tanya unpacks how stress, both known and hidden, impacts hormones, gut health, immune function, and even spiritual well-being. She also shares how chronic stress can lead to adrenal dysfunction, mood swings, thyroid issues, and the stubborn fatigue and weight gain many busy women face.

You'll leave this episode with practical tools to start supporting your body and soul today—rooted in faith and functional health principles.

If you're a professional woman looking for more energy, peace, and clarity while leading well, this one is for you!

Key Takeaways:

• The visible and hidden sources of stress most women overlook
• The cascade of health issues chronic stress triggers, including hormonal imbalances, adrenal dysfunction, and gut health disruption
• How spiritual depletion is connected to physical burnout
• Practical, faith-based strategies to support your nervous system and reduce stress starting today

 

I hope this episode blesses you!
