WHY WOMEN BURN OUT AND HOW TO FIND YOURSELF AGAIN | Lindsey Lang

What happens when you spend so much time taking care of everyone else that you lose touch with what you actually need?

In this episode of The Human Health Collective Podcast, Dr. Libby Schwartz sits down with Lindsey Lang of Lindsey Lang Life Coaching for a conversation about women’s burnout, confidence, boundaries, self-worth, mindset, and what it takes to reconnect with yourself.

Lindsey works with women who feel exhausted, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next. Her coaching focuses on helping women rebuild energy, self-worth, identity, and confidence so they can move beyond simply surviving and begin creating a life that feels more aligned.

Together, Libby and Lindsey explore why burnout is about much more than being tired. They talk about people-pleasing, perfectionism, struggling to say no, constantly meeting everyone else’s needs, and the difficulty many women have identifying their own needs in the first place. Pasted text

What happens when you’re doing all the “right” things for your health, but your body still feels stuck in stress mode?

In this episode of The Human Health Collective Podcast, Dr. Libby Schwartz sits down with Dr. Chris Collins, chiropractor and owner of Axia Chiropractic in Chattanooga, to talk about nervous system regulation, upper cervical chiropractic care, stress, recovery, and what it can look like to take a more whole-person approach to health.

Chris explains why chiropractic care can involve much more than treating neck pain or back pain. His work focuses heavily on the upper cervical spine, C1 and C2, the nervous system, and the relationship between the spine, brain, and body.

They also explore what it may feel like when the body struggles to shift out of fight or flight, including difficulty winding down, poor sleep, feeling constantly “on,” and struggling to recover even when you’re working on nutrition, movement, stress management, and other healthy habits.

This conversation goes beyond chiropractic adjustments and into something much bigger: how we think about preventative care, nervous system health, consistency, collaboration between healthcare providers, and building a relationship with your health before something goes wrong.

IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:

• What “stuck in fight or flight” can actually feel like
• Nervous system regulation and chronic stress
• The relationship between the spine and nervous system
• What upper cervical chiropractic care means
• Why C1 and C2 are important
• Proprioception, balance, vertigo, and migraines
• Chiropractic care beyond neck and back pain
• Nervous system testing and thermography
• Why objective health data can be useful
• Preventative care vs. waiting until something hurts
• Creating sustainable health habits
• Whole-person healthcare and collaboration
• Why health should not be approached as a quick fix
