In today's episode, Coach Courtney is diving into a topic every woman over 40 needs to hear — how people-pleasing and chronic overgiving aren't just personality traits, they're stress patterns that keep your body stuck in burnout.

We cover:

• Why people-pleasing shows up physically, not just emotionally
• How always putting yourself last keeps your nervous system in survival mode
• Why burnout often comes from emotional labor, not just doing too much
• Simple, actionable steps to start protecting your energy without guilt

If you're doing all the right things but still feel depleted and exhausted — and can't figure out why rest alone isn't helping — this episode is for you.
