Burnout is no longer just emotionalโฆitโs hormonal.
In todayโs always-on world, chronic stress has become the norm. Long workdays, poor sleep, constant stimulation, blood sugar spikes, and mental overload all place pressure on the bodyโs hormone system.
When stress becomes chronic, hormones donโt simply โbalance themselvesโโฆthey adapt in ways that can lead to long-term health issues.
