In this episode of Ever Forward Radio, we sit down with wellness experts and holistic nutritionists from Ancient + Brave, Dana James and Madison Miller, to unpack the modern epidemic of \"wellness fatigue\"—why more information, supplements, and optimization tools aren't necessarily making us healthier. We dive deep into the hidden role of stress, the nervous system, and gut health, revealing how chronic cortisol, subconscious belief systems, and overcomplicated routines may be sabotaging progress. From practical insights on sleep, nutrition, and supplementation to deeper discussions around emotional patterns, breathwork, and identity-driven behaviors, this episode reframes what it truly means to optimize your health in 2026.
