Built to help women have a 360° approach to health through perimenopause to post-menopause.
When you think about the sources of stress in your life, what typically comes to mind? For many, it’s the everyday challenges—unexpected bills, tense meetings with bosses, relationship struggles, and the constant juggling of daily tasks. It’s natural to attribute stress to external factors, but the truth is, not everyone reacts the same way to these situations. Some individuals thrive in the face of adversity, suggesting that the primary driver of non-life-threatening stress resides within.
The real impact on our stress levels is rooted in our thought processes rather than the sheer volume of tasks or challenges we face daily. While life may throw genuinely difficult situations our way, a significant portion of stress stems from the perception of pressure, urgency, and concern about others’ opinions. Our deep-seated need for approval leads us to place immense pressure on ourselves, striving to embody qualities like capability, responsibility, efficiency, kindness, generosity, caring, success, or hard work.
Many of us find ourselves running on overdrive, attempting to fulfill every expectation and climb the career ladder—all because being perceived in a certain way takes precedence over our well-being. It’s not a conscious decision; our daily actions reveal our priorities. If skipping a nourishing home-cooked meal to squeeze in more work becomes routine, we unintentionally signal that work holds greater importance than our health.
Of course, bills must be paid, and families need support. However, it’s crucial to honestly assess how much extra time and energy you invest in your job beyond expectations. Challenge yourself to explore why you go above and beyond—approach this self-inquiry with curiosity, free from judgment. Understanding these motivations can be a key step toward a healthier, more balanced life.
