Anxiety and Stress & Overwhelm: Take Back Control of Your Life
Feeling Stuck in a Cycle of Anxiety or Stress and Overwhelm?
Lately, I’ve noticed a pattern in my clinic—Anxiety or Stress and Overwhelm.
The stories may differ, but the themes are the same:
- Women doubting themselves, focusing on what they’re not instead of who they are.
- Feeling trapped in self-judgment—“I’m not enough,” “I’m being judged,” “I’m unlovable.”
- Taking antidepressants yet still feeling stuck in sadness.
- Relationships unraveling, leading to heartache and uncertainty.
- Friendships breaking down over small misunderstandings.
- Losing passion for work and feeling disconnected from life.
- Teenagers struggling to see a bright future.
- Aging parents facing health declines, bringing tough decisions.
Now, imagine dealing with more than one of these at the same time.
No wonder anxiety feels all-consuming. But you don’t have to stay stuck.
The Toll Stress Takes on Your Body
Your adrenal glands are working overtime—nonstop.
- Your heart races.
- Your hands feel unsteady.
- You crave sugar, caffeine, or alcohol to cope.
- Your shoulders feel like bricks, tense and burning.
- The tight band around your temples just won’t let up.
How long can you live like this? It’s time to say, “Enough.”
This cycle is stealing space from a life that could be calm, joyful, and fulfilling. You don’t have to stay in survival mode.
The Three Stages of Adrenal Fatigue
1 – Alarm Phase
Your body is in high alert, producing stress hormones at full speed. Symptoms include:
- Anxiety & panic
- Irritability
- Sugar cravings
- Hot flashes
- Weight gain (especially around the midsection)
- Increased heart rate & blood pressure
- Insomnia
2 – Adaptation Phase
Your body is trying to cope, but the cracks start to show:
- Feeling drained but still wired with adrenaline
- Struggling to sleep—especially if you stay up past 10 PM
- Feeling worse after exercise
- Mood swings & low libido
- Blood sugar imbalances
- Muscle pain & inflammation
3 – Exhaustion Phase
Your body is running on empty, making recovery feel impossible:
- Chronic fatigue
- Depression
- Waking frequently throughout the night
- Complete physical and emotional burnout
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. But ignoring it won’t make it go away.
Take Action Before It’s Too Late
If left unchecked, stress can spiral into:
- Food sensitivities
- Leaky gut
- Insulin resistance
- Autoimmune diseases
- Chronic inflammation
By Stage 3, your body is in full burnout mode. At this point, management—not recovery—may be the only option.
But it doesn’t have to get that far.

If you’re ready to make a change, I’m here to help.
Here’s what the lovely Jenny had to say after just four weeks of working together:
“Thank you, Julie. I can’t believe how much better I feel in just four weeks! You’ve opened my eyes to a new way of thinking and given me the tools I need. I finally have the energy to handle life again. I’m excited for the future—thank you!”
You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’ve been there too.
But here’s the truth—doing nothing leads to more suffering. Waiting only makes healing harder.
