Description

Could your struggles with motivation and follow-through have less to do with discipline—and more to do with what’s happening in your mitochondria?


In this powerful episode, Dr. Sarah breaks down the surprising connection between mitochondrial health, hormones, and the brain’s reward system. She reveals why so many women feel “stuck” in cycles of fatigue, cravings, and overwhelm despite doing all the “right” things—and why the missing piece often lies in how energy is produced and used in the body. This isn’t about another supplement stack or quick fix; it’s about learning how to work with your body’s deepest operating system. By the end, you’ll see that real confidence and resilience don’t come from hacks or trends—they’re built on the cellular foundations of health.


Key Takeaways:

1. The Foundations of Mitochondrial Health

2. The Loop of Dysfunction and Overwhelm

3. Motivation, Reward, and Hormonal Influence


If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who’s been struggling with fatigue, motivation, or “doing all the right things” without results. Don’t forget to leave a review—it helps spread the word and bring this life-changing approach to more women.
