#110: Why Healing Isn't Working: The Stress Mistake That's Keeping You Stuck

What if your self-care routine—the habits, the supplements, the recovery strategies—was actually keeping you stuck instead of helping you heal? Sounds impossible, right? But by the end of this episode, you might be saying, "I never knew that!"

In this episode of Critical Conversations, we're uncovering a missing piece in the wellness puzzle: the stress adaptation spectrum—and how being on the wrong side of it could be the reason you still feel exhausted, inflamed, and frustrated with your progress.

We'll break down:
 - What the stress adaptation spectrum measures
 - How healing itself can be a stressor—and why it matters
 - How to assess whether you're in allostatic load or insufficiency
 - Small, research-backed shifts that can actually move the needle

If you've ever thought, I'm doing everything right, so why do I still feel like this?, this episode will change how you approach your health for good.

Tune in now and learn how to stop spinning your wheels—and start making real progress toward feeling better.
