If you're successful on paper but running on adrenaline behind the scenes, this episode will land. In this Legacy Series conversation, I sit down with Robina Abramson Walling, board-certified health and life coach and doctoral candidate in natural medicine, to talk about what's actually happening in the bodies of high-achieving women. We break down why so many ambitious women lose their edge, struggle with energy, focus, hormones, and confidence, and why pushing harder is often the worst possible response. This episode bridges science, energy, and leadership in a grounded way, without fear-based hormone narratives or surface-level mindset advice. In this episode, we cover: What chronic stress actually does to the nervous system and hormones Why burnout often shows up as high-functioning depression How energy dysregulation impacts leadership capacity Why perimenopause is misunderstood and over-pathologized How the Regulated CEO leads without sacrificing herself This is for the woman who knows her next level won't be built on pressure, hustle, or adrenaline.
