Signs Of Stress You Might Be Ignoring

Send us a text

What if the stress you’re experiencing isn’t coming from “doing too much” - but from the signals you’ve been taught to ignore?

In this episode, we explore the often-overlooked signs of stress that quietly shape our behaviors, our bodies, and our emotional lives. Stress doesn’t always look like panic or burnout. More often, it shows up as constant busyness, perfectionism, emotional shutdown, or physical symptoms we normalize and push through.

We explore:

  • How stress frequently disguises itself as productivity, control, or “coping well”
  • Why patterns like overworking, people-pleasing, and withdrawal are nervous system responses - not personal failures
  • The ways the body communicates stress through pain, fatigue, tension, and hormonal shifts
  • How ignoring stress signals can deepen disconnection from your body and emotions
  • Personal stories that illustrate how subtle stress patterns develop - and how awareness begins to change them
  • Why self-compassion and curiosity are essential tools for stress regulation, not luxuries

Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the importance of learning to listen to the body’s cues with honesty and care. Stress is not a weakness to overcome - it is information asking for attention, support, and regulation.

We also share details about our course designed to help you decode your body’s stress signals, build deeper self-awareness, and connect with a supportive community as you learn to respond to stress in more sustainable ways.
