Episode 22: Why You Feel Tired, Wired and Not Quite Like Yourself with Kimberly from Life + Lemons

There is a kind of exhaustion that sleep doesn’t seem to touch. The kind where you wake already tense, your mind won’t switch off at night, and you move through the day foggy, overstretched, and quietly wondering what is happening to you.

In this episode, I’m joined by Kimberly, founder of Life + Lemons, to explore why so many women feel tired, wired, overwhelmed, and unlike themselves — and why these experiences are often more connected than we realise. We talk about stress, hormones, cycles, nervous system load, and what begins to shift when we stop seeing symptoms in isolation.

In this episode, we explore:

why so many women feel exhausted, foggy, anxious, and “not quite themselves”

what it means to feel tired and wired

how chronic stress can affect sleep, energy, hormones, and capacity

the pressure women carry to keep functioning at full capacity

why information overload and doom scrolling can deepen overwhelm

what changes when we start looking at the bigger picture
