The Engines: Powering Your Change with Brain and Emotion Energy
What if your struggle to follow through on healthy habits wasn’t a willpower problem?
What if it was an energy problem?
In this season of life, most women I coach aren’t lazy, undisciplined, or unmotivated. They’re just running on fumes—mentally and emotionally. And no amount of “try harder” is going to refill the tank.
That’s why today on the podcast, I’m walking you through the second component of the Aging Flipped Flight Plan:
The Engines—your internal systems for brain power and emotional energy.
When those engines are offline, change feels like a chore. But when they’re up and running? That’s when things begin to lift off.
🧠 Your Brain Needs Fuel—Not More Pressure
Your brain is incredible, but it doesn’t run on pressure. It runs on clarity, structure, and support. Most women I work with don’t need more rules—they need more margin. More curiosity. More connection.
If you’ve ever felt foggy, scattered, or like every “tiny habit” feels too big, this episode will give you tools to start getting your mental clarity back.
💛 Emotional Capacity > Emotional Control
We’ve been taught to “manage” our emotions, but rarely to nurture them. This episode shares how emotional energy works with your brain—not against it—and how you can build more capacity (instead of stuffing feelings down or buffering with food, TV, or busyness).
🔧 A Simple Energy Check-In
I also walk you through a 2-part check-in you can use right now to assess your mental and emotional fuel levels. Because real change doesn’t come from shame—it comes from knowing where you are and honoring what you need next.
