The Hidden Struggles of High Achieving Women | Guest: Michelle McCoy // 323

CONSIDER JESUS; A Biblical Mindset into Intimacy, Marriage, and Christian Living

Hey there friend...

Do you find yourself constantly tired, exhausted, fatigued, with little to no energy...on a regular basis? SPOILER ALERT...that's not normal! Why is it that we as women just think it's normal to be wiped out on a regular basis and just keep going?

Today I'm talking to my friend Michelle McCoy who is the host of the Treasured Wellness podcast where she energizes Female Christian Leaders in Midlife to take control of their high functioning fatigue & foggy brain. Using targeted support combined with renewed biblical mindset shifts; she teaches women to treasure their temple for a lifetime of good health.

God called Michelle to pursue holistic health when conventional medicine failed her sick daughter. Living out a health crisis herself brought her even closer to her purpose. She learned to turn to the ONE who created her for HEALING & RESTORATION from autoimmunity & a debilitating fatigue condition. Michelle is happily married to her best friend of 32 years; they have 2 adult children and their spouses and 3 grand dogs! Michelle and her husband are currently thriving during this phase of living in an empty nest. I hope you find value in today's episode. xx, michelle
