In this episode, I’m breaking down what’s actually happening inside the body when energy intake doesn’t match training and life stress—and why your metabolism adapting is a protective response, not a failure. We’ll talk about: What people really mean when they say their metabolism is “broken” How adaptive metabolism works (in plain English) Why runners are uniquely vulnerable The sneaky habits that keep the body stuck in protection mode How to support metabolic recovery without dieting harder This episode is part physiology, part reassurance, and part “let’s stop blaming women’s bodies for doing exactly what they’re designed to do.” ✨ Spoiler: You don’t need to fix your body. You need to work with it.
