In this episode, we dive into the journey of  Karly Arber, a former investment banker who thrived in a high-stress, male-dominated environment—until she didn’t. While she loved her work, the constant pressure to hustle, compete, and prioritize others over herself eventually led her down a path of burnout and chronic fatigue.

At her breaking point—bed-bound and diagnosed with chronic fatigue—she began the journey of transformation. She discovered the power of curating a lifestyle that supported her health and happiness rather than undermining it. Now, with non-negotiables firmly in place and a renewed trust in her intuition, she explains how small, intentional changes have reshaped her life.

In this episode, we’re diving into the complex relationship between stress, thyroid health, and the adrenal glands, focusing on how they’re all interconnected within the body’s delicate endocrine system. Chronic stress can significantly impact thyroid function, often leading to imbalances that result in symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, and low energy. This connection, known as HPA axis dysfunction, affects communication between the brain and adrenal glands, creating a cycle that can lead to burnout, adrenal fatigue, and thyroid issues.
