If you start January strong but feel exhausted or discouraged a few weeks later, this episode is for you.

In this Coaching Perspective episode of The Transformation Show, Janell Yule explores why so many women struggle to sustain momentum and why the problem is not discipline, motivation, or willpower.

What most people call motivation is often a stress response. It works for a short time, then the body moves into protection mode. The result is burnout, frustration, and the familiar all-or-nothing cycle.

In this episode, Janell breaks down:
• The burnout loop that shows up every January
• How perfectionism and productivity-driven identity fuel exhaustion
• What is actually happening in your nervous system
• Why momentum requires safety, pacing, and rhythm
• Practical ways to build consistency by doing less, better

This conversation will help you shift from force-based action to regulated action so change feels sustainable instead of overwhelming.

Follow the show so you do not miss future episodes.
And if this resonated, share it with someone who needs a gentler way forward.

If you’ve tried to “fix” your hormones by restricting food, cutting calories, or starting another plan, this episode offers a different approach.

Hormones don’t reset through discipline. They respond to nourishment, rhythm, and safety in the body. When stress is high and the nervous system is overwhelmed, restriction often makes symptoms worse.

In this episode, Janell Yule explains how to support hormone balance naturally without dieting, extremes, or quick fixes.

You’ll learn:
• why dieting often backfires when hormones are already stressed
• how nourishment and consistency support hormone signaling
• the role of the nervous system in hormone regulation
• what a true hormone “reset” actually looks like
• simple, supportive shifts you can begin right away

This episode is for women who are tired of pushing their bodies and want a more sustainable, body-aware approach to hormone health.

If you’ve been struggling with sugar cravings and wondering why willpower isn’t enough, this episode will help you understand what your body is actually asking for.

Sugar cravings are often treated like a discipline problem, but most of the time they’re driven by physiology. Gut imbalance, blood sugar swings, cortisol patterns, and nervous system stress all play a role.

In this episode, Janell Yule breaks down the three most common drivers behind sugar cravings and how to tell which one may be affecting you.

You’ll learn:

• why cravings are not a personal failure

• how gut health influences blood sugar and appetite

• the role of hormones and stress in craving cycles

• how the nervous system signals safety through food

• simple ways to respond to cravings with support instead of restriction

This episode is especially helpful for women who feel stuck in craving cycles and want to work with their biology, not against it.

If you’re feeling behind after the holidays, this episode is for you.

January often comes with pressure to “start strong,” fix what you think you messed up, and push your body back into discipline. But if you’re feeling tired, bloated, unmotivated, or craving sugar, your body isn’t failing — it’s communicating.

In this episode, Janell Yule explains what’s actually happening inside your gut, hormones, and nervous system after the holidays, and how to support your body in a way that feels safe, grounded, and sustainable.

You’ll learn:

• why post-holiday fatigue and cravings are physiological, not personal failures

• how stress and pressure impact your nervous system

• what it really means to reset from a place of safety

• simple stabilizing habits you can start this week

This episode is especially for high-achieving women who are tired of shame-based resets and want to work with their body instead of against it.

Transcript

Join us on this transformative episode of The Transformation Show as Janell dives deep into the fascinating and complex world of gut health, with a particular focus on Leaky Gut Syndrome. Often misunderstood, this condition is at the heart of a wide range of health challenges, from autoimmune disorders to everyday ailments. As Hippocrates wisely said, "All disease begins in the gut," and today, we explore just how true that is.

In this episode, we uncover the intricate connections between gut health and overall well-being, highlighting the often-overlooked subclinical levels of gut permeability that can wreak havoc on your health. Janell sheds light on how a damaged intestinal lining can lead to an imbalance in gut bacteria, tipping the scales in favor of harmful pathogens and setting the stage for various health issues.

We talk about the role of gluten as a key player in promoting intestinal permeability, triggering autoimmune responses, and exacerbating Leaky Gut Syndrome. But that's not all—our conversation spans the gut-skin axis, revealing how poor gut health can manifest in skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne. We also explore the gut's influence on hormones, from estrogen metabolism to cortisol regulation, and how this can impact everything from weight management to stress levels.

Janell doesn’t just highlight the problems; she also offers practical solutions. Discover actionable strategies to identify, manage, and heal Leaky Gut, including dietary adjustments, stress management techniques, and the importance of regular exercise. Learn how healing your gut can lead to improved energy levels, better skin, balanced hormones, and an overall higher quality of life.

We also take a look at cutting-edge therapies for gut health recovery, such as fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) and personalized medicine, which represent the future of treating gastrointestinal diseases. Janell discusses the immense value of community and support networks in this healing journey, emphasizing how sharing your health transformation with others can make the process more manageable and fulfilling.

Tune in to learn:

• The connection between gut health and autoimmune disorders, skin conditions, and hormone balance
• The impact of gluten on gut permeability and overall health
• How to identify the symptoms of Leaky Gut and take steps to heal your gut
