What if your exhaustion isn't "just aging" — but nervous system burnout?

In this episode, Michelle sits down with women's health expert Kellie Lupsha to explore how women in midlife can reclaim energy, regulate their nervous system, and become the CEO of their health. If you're navigating perimenopause, burnout, hormone shifts, sleep struggles, or chronic stress, this conversation will change how you think about your body.

You'll learn:

• Why high-achieving women often live in hidden nervous system overload

• How chronic stress impacts metabolism, hormones, and energy

• Simple daily resets that restore clarity, strength, and vitality

• Why lifting weights and metabolic resilience matter in perimenopause

• How to shift your identity from "pushing through" to leading your health

This episode is for women in sales, leadership, and performance-driven roles who want sustainable energy without hustle culture.

Midlife isn't decline.
It's leadership.

I recently had the opportunity to guest coach in an amazing program led by Dr. Stacy Heimburger Smalley. We explored what it really takes for high-achieving women to rebuild self-trust, confidence, and sustainable success — without burnout or perfectionism.

Together, we unpack why so many driven women set powerful goals… yet still feel disconnected or frustrated in the process. This episode is a grounded conversation about identity, nervous system awareness, and redefining success in a way that actually supports your energy.

Inside this episode:

• Why consistency (not perfection) builds real self-trust
• How to stop moving the goalpost and acknowledge progress
• The power of setting intentions based on how you want to feel
• Why small, aligned actions create lasting confidence
• How to define success for your current season of leadership

If you're a woman in sales, leadership, or a performance-driven role who wants growth that feels grounded instead of exhausting, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are.

Most high-performing women don't struggle because they lack skill or experience.
They struggle because they don't fully trust themselves.

In this episode of It's Your Time, Michelle explores the hidden cost of not trusting yourself — especially for women in sales, leadership, and high-responsibility roles. When capability becomes your identity, self-trust quietly erodes, leading to burnout, over-functioning, and stalled growth.

In this conversation, you'll learn:

• Why capability without self-trust leads to exhaustion, not confidence

• How nervous system conditioning keeps women stuck in over-responsibility

• The emotional, financial, and identity costs of waiting for permission

• What shifts when self-trust becomes your internal authority

Michelle also introduces the Self Trust Audit, a practical tool to help you identify your self-trust pattern and begin rebuilding agency through small, nervous-system-safe shifts.

This episode is for women who are done pushing harder — and ready to lead themselves with clarity, permission, and trust.
