Ever heard someone say exercise raises cortisol—and felt confused about whether that’s helping or hurting your stress levels? In this episode, we’re breaking it all down in a way that actually makes sense.
I’m sharing the real deal about how movement impacts your stress hormones, why that cortisol spike during a workout isn’t something to fear, and how exercise actually helps you build more energy and emotional resilience over time.
We’ll chat about:
<ul>
<li>
Why cortisol isn’t the enemy (it’s actually kind of amazing)
</li>
<li>
The difference between short-term stress and long-term burnout
</li>
<li>
How moving your body helps with emotional regulation + mental clarity
</li>
<li>
Why the type of movement matters way more than intensity
</li>
<li>
What to do when you're exhausted but know you need to move
</li>
</ul>
This episode is your permission slip to rethink your relationship with working out—whether you’ve been overdoing it, avoiding it, or just want to feel better in your body and brain.
