S2E6 How Your Self-Talk Can Shape the Way You Feel

2026-10-0515:49

Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney Show! In this solo episode, I’m talking about the stories we tell ourselves and how the language we use about our bodies, our health, and our lives can keep us stuck in patterns we may no longer want. Whether it is saying “I’m so busy,” “I’m always tired,” “I can’t lose weight,” or “my body hates me,” those phrases can become part of the way we experience ourselves. This does not mean ignoring real symptoms or pretending everything is fine. Instead, it is about ...

Today is a very special day: The Cortisol Cure is officially out in the world! To celebrate, I’m sharing something a little different on the podcast, an exclusive excerpt from the audiobook, read by me.

Epstein-Barr virus can stay dormant in the body for years after the initial infection. But when your immune system becomes overwhelmed or your body is under prolonged stress, the virus can reactivate and become a m...

S2 E3: Stop Saying You’re So Busy: How Language Shapes Your Stress

2026-08-3116:48

Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney Show! In this solo episode, I’m talking about what happens in your brain and body when you constantly tell yourself and others, “I’m so busy.” After noticing how often this phrase came up in conversations, I started experimenting with not saying it, and instead talking about calm, rest, gardening, reading, and the things I was doing to protect my peace. I dive into how the stories we repeat shape our nervous system, why “busy” keeps the body in a cortisol spend ...
