Why You Can't Find Your Keys: The Cognitive Cost of Being Overloaded (Women Healers 50+)
Are you a brilliant woman healer over 50 who keeps forgetting why you walked into a room, blanking on names you know, or secretly fearing that your brain is failing you?
Take a deep breath: You are not losing your edge, and this isn't early decline. This is cognitive burnout. For women over 50 and healers, your brain has been pushed past human limits by years of holding space for others. You are overwhelmed not because you are aging, but because your "hard drive" is full. Your nervous system is triaging information for survival, dumping the "small stuff" to keep you functioning in high-stakes environments. This forgetfulness is a loud signal of exhaustion and compassion fatigue.
In this neuroscience-backed episode, Dr. Juls explains why your brain is acting this way and why it is happening specifically now. You will learn to stop the anxiety spiral and start honoring your capacity. Discover:
- The "Survival Triage" Mechanism: Why forgetting details is actually a sign your nervous system is trying to protect you from total collapse (and how to lower the load).
- The Midlife Perfect Storm: How the combination of burnout and hormonal shifts directly impact your focus (and why this is temporary, not permanent).
- The Shame Spiral: How to stop the cycle of believing you must be "flawless" to be competent, and practical strategies to reduce decision fatigue and regain your clarity immediately.
Your brain isn't broken; it is just busy protecting you. Press play to stop panicking about your memory and reclaim your mental health.
This podcast supports women healers over 50 navigating burnout, compassion fatigue, and midlife transitions with strategies for nervous system regulation, trauma-informed boundaries, and chakra alignment to heal resentment and self-neglect while cultivating soul joy, radiance, and a purposeful next chapter of freedom and inner peace.
THE DIAGNOSIS: Are you the Martyr who can't say no? Or the Warrior who fights until she collapses? You cannot heal what you cannot name.
