Supporting Your Anxious Squirrel Brain: Routines, Supplements & Strategy
Description
Ever feel like your brain is both wired and exhausted at the same time? You're not alone. In this episode, Haylee and Jess get real about what it’s like to live with “anxious squirrel brain” — whether it’s linked to ADHD tendencies, anxiety, executive dysfunction, or just a season of overwhelm.
They open up about coming off anxiety medication, navigating dopamine dips, and how they’ve learned (and are still learning) to work with their brains instead of against them.
Inside, you’ll learn:
How neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and GABA impact your focus, mood, and gut
Why your gut health and blood sugar swings might be messing with your mental clarity
The morning routines that actually work (no 5am cold plunges required)
Nutrition, sleep, and supplement strategies that help calm the chaos
What’s helped Haylee and Jess (and their clients) feel more grounded, functional, and in control
This episode isn’t about being perfect. It’s about building awareness, ditching the “shoulds,” and finding tools that support your unique brain.
