Cortisol, Burnout & the Female Stress Response

60 Minutes | Burnout isn’t a personal failure – it’s a physiological response.

In this educational, grounding talk, naturopathic doctors Lauren Myers and Natalie Hennessey explores how stress affects female hormones, energy, mood, sleep, and weight, and why women often experience burnout differently than men. You’ll learn what cortisol actually does in the body, how chronic stress can leave you feeling tired but wired, anxious, or stuck, and how to begin supporting your nervous system in realistic, sustainable ways. This session focuses on simple, evidence-informed strategies to calm the stress response – no supplements, no extremes, no overwhelm. Perfect for anyone feeling exhausted, stretched thin, or curious about working with their body instead of against it.
