If you’re stuck in a cycle of burnout, bloating, mood swings, or you just don’t feel like yourself anymore... today’s episode is going to connect the dots in a way that finally makes sense.

I’m joined by Victoria Lefebre, a Holistic Midlife Strategist, nervous system educator, and the creator of the Chaos to Confidence™ Method. She’s also the author of Chaos, Clarity, and Confidence, a book that’s helped thousands of women regulate their stress response and reconnect with who they really are.

In this episode, we’re breaking down:

  1. Why stress is the root of hormone chaos
  2. How to know if your nervous system is stuck in fight-or-flight
  3. What nervous system regulation actually looks like in a busy woman’s real life
  4. And the rituals that help you feel safe in your body again, without overhauling your life

So if you’ve been craving clarity, calm, or just want your body to feel like it’s on your team again—this conversation is for you.
