If your body feels like it's stuck in overdrive—wired, tired, inflamed, and just plain off—it might not be just stress. It could be high cortisol.

In this first episode of Alive & Well, we’re pulling back the curtain on your body’s main stress hormone.

Because if you’ve been walking around feeling anxious, foggy, overstimulated, or exhausted by 2 p.m., there’s a good chance your cortisol levels are out of whack—and your nervous system is sounding the alarm.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why common symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog could all be traced back to high cortisol
• How chronic stress disrupts your energy, sleep, focus, and mood
• The science behind your stress response (no jargon—just what you actually need to know)
• 4 simple, science-backed ways to calm your nervous system and bring your body back into balance
