    Calling all control freaks: if you’re exhausted from trying to hold everything and everyone together, this episode is for you. Join me as I sit down with Olga Lacroix (Registered Social Worker and Master Certified Coach) to explore one of the biggest hidden drains on our energy: the need to control everything. We unpack why so many high-achieving women feel responsible for everyone else's happiness, why checking all the boxes still doesn't make us feel like we're enough, and how perfectionism quietly fuels burnout.Together, we explore the difference between control and trust, why boundaries are really about changing our own behaviour—not someone else's—and how shifting from an outcome-focused mindset to a process-focused one can create more peace, confidence, and joy. We also discuss practical strategies like conducting an energy audit, noticing negative self-talk, practicing mindfulness, and redefining success in a way that actually supports your well-being.If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" but still feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or like you're never quite enough, this conversation will leave you feeling lighter, more compassionate toward yourself, and with practical tools you can start using today.Key Takeaways:Why trying to control people and outcomes is one of the fastest ways to drain your emotional energy.The surprising relationship between perfectionism, achievement, and chronic fatigue.How childhood experiences often shape our need for control and external validation.Why success doesn't automatically lead to fulfillment and what actually does.The difference between an outcome mindset and a growth mindset.How self-compassion helps reduce burnout more effectively than self-criticism.Practical ways to challenge negative self-talk and become aware of your inner critic.Why boundaries are about what you will do, not changing someone else's behaviour.How to perform an energy audit to identify what's filling and draining your emotional, mental, and physical energy.Why measuring your life by joy instead of productivity can completely change the way you make decisions.Additional Episodes You Might Enjoy: 49.

    53. The One About Getting Out of Fight or Flight Mode with Valerie Beaulieu
    2026/07/01
    Nervous system dysregulation, chronic pain, migraines, fatigue, and perfectionism are all connected in ways most of us were never taught to understand.In this episode, I sit down with Valerie Beaulieu (former Athletic Therapist, Migraine and Neuroplasticity Expert) to explore what the nervous system actually does, what nervous system dysregulation looks like in real life, and why so many high-achieving women find themselves stuck in cycles of exhaustion, pain, people-pleasing, and survival mode.We discuss the role fear plays in chronic symptoms, how fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses show up in everyday life, and why silence can feel so uncomfortable when your nervous system is constantly scanning for danger. Valerie also shares the latest thinking on neuroplastic pain, including how the brain can continue to generate pain signals even after an injury has healed, and how our beliefs, emotions, and internal narratives can influence healing.If you've ever wondered why you feel stuck despite doing all the "right" things, this conversation offers a fascinating perspective on the connection between your brain, body, emotions, and energy.Key Takeaways:Your nervous system is constantly gathering information and determining whether you are safe or under threat.Many women spend years operating in survival mode without realizing it.Fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses can show up as perfectionism, overworking, people-pleasing, procrastination, or feeling stuck.Fear is often at the root of chronic stress patterns, even when it appears as anger, guilt, shame, or frustration.The stories and beliefs you attach to your symptoms can influence how your brain experiences pain and fatigue.Neuroplastic pain is real pain generated by learned brain pathways rather than ongoing tissue damage.Chronic pain and chronic fatigue are not "all in your head," but your brain plays an important role in how symptoms are experienced.Additional Episodes You Might Enjoy: 32.

    If you’re struggling with fatigue, abdominal weight gain, brain fog, and cravings, you may be dealing with a very common metabolic dysfunction: insulin resistance.

    In this episode, Dr. Sarah Vadeboncoeur unpacks one of the most common—but often overlooked—causes of low energy: insulin resistance. You'll learn what insulin resistance actually is, why it can develop years before prediabetes, how muscle, sleep, stress, and hormones influence blood sugar regulation, and which lab tests can help identify it early. Most importantly, you'll walk away with practical, sustainable strategies to improve insulin sensitivity without restrictive diets or all-or-nothing thinking.

    If you've ever been told your blood sugar is "normal" but you still feel exhausted, this episode is for you.


    Key Takeaways:
    • Insulin resistance often develops years—or even decades—before prediabetes or Type 2 diabetes is diagnosed.
    • Normal blood sugar does not necessarily mean your insulin levels are normal.
    • Common symptoms include:
      • Afternoon energy crashes
      • Brain fog
      • Increased cravings for sugar or carbohydrates
      • Feeling irritable or "hangry" when meals are delayed
      • Weight gain around the midsection
    • Muscle acts as one of the body's biggest glucose sinks, making strength training and movement powerful tools for prevention.
    • Chronic stress, poor sleep, perimenopause, PCOS, a history of gestational diabetes, and certain medications can all increase risk.
    • Waist circumference is one of the strongest predictors of future insulin resistance and metabolic disease.
    • Whether or not Continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) are helpful for understanding your blood sugar levels
    • Which exact labs can show early signs of insulin resistance
