You Can Do Amazing Things

Do you feel like something is draining you and you can’t figure out WHY?  You ask yourself  “What is it??  Why am I so exhausted??”  Today we look at energy through the lens of extroversion and introversion, and how we can get some of it back.

NOTE:  As I mentioned in this episode, I'm taking a short break from the podcast.  Breaks are good for the soul - they allow you to recharge and refocus. I look forward to chatting with you again soon! Connect with me on Instagram or send me a voicemail - links below!  xo-Hollie

One of the most powerful tools we have is our ability to choose.  Sometimes - we don’t realize what an impact this can make on so many aspects of our life - especially how we FEEL.  How do we want to feel each day?  How can we do a reset on some of the choices we have in our daily life?

“Your labs look normal - you must be a busy mom,” your doctor tells you.  ‘Normal?  How can that be?  I can hardly function, I’m so tired,’ you think to yourself.  Or maybe you have other hormonal symptoms - no libido?  Weight gain?  Mood shifts?  Loss of energy? 

My guest today is Marcella Hill.  She is not only an entrepreneur, speaker and author, but she is your go-to person for eye-opening videos and conversations about symptoms that aren’t always talked about when it comes to perimenopause and hormones.

Marcella is building a fantastic community of women that is full of hope, information and resources you need on how to get help - what to do next - and how to get back on track to feeling good again.  I'm excited for you to hear her story.

Note: This is not medical advice in any way - but sharing our journeys can be so helpful. It's important to remember that every person's experience with hormones - perimenopause/menopause is unique, and what works for one person may not work for another. Seeking guidance from a healthcare provider who specializes in hormone management can be helpful in finding the right treatment plan for your needs.

"Why am I so tired?"   "What's wrong with me - I feel so "off!"   "I am so exhausted..."  Have you ever said any of those things to yourself?  Do you feel like something is wrong or not right but don't know what to do - or where to start so you can feel better again?

I'm sharing my journey with you - and today, we talk about so many things.  Maybe something I share will hit you like - “OMGosh  - that’s ME!”  and it will be a starting point for you to look into an idea you didn’t know about, and you will find something - that hopefully - can give you relief.

We feel like we are just going through the motions.

Have you ever taken the time to think about what your needs are - to really understand them? 

We are ALL so busy with so many different things and activities.  It's so easy to get caught up in the demands of daily life and put our own needs on the back burner, trying to do everything for everyone else. 

Knowing and understanding your needs - good, bad or indifferent - is critical for your overall well-being and happiness, it will keep you from feeling empty or burned out - and it’s like oxygen, as you feel more understood and respected in your relationships.
