We keep hearing the same thing from high-achieving women: “I eat well, I sleep, I move, I plan my week, but I still feel exhausted.”
In this episode, Sarah Elisabeth sits down with Emily Ramsden, Leadership and Business Consultant, to unpack why so many ambitious women are running on empty even when they’re ticking all the right boxes.
Together, they explore the most common patterns they see among high performers: being busy but not productive, leaking energy through over-functioning and emotional labour, and confusing efficiency with effectiveness.
You’ll learn how to spot your biggest energy drains, redirect your focus toward what actually moves the needle, and start creating an “energy culture” both personally and within your teams.
This conversation bridges leadership and physiology, blending mindset, strategy, and nutrition to help you understand how to protect, direct, and regenerate your energy so you can perform sustainably without burning out.

If you’ve ever found yourself rereading the same sentence, forgetting what you just said in a meeting, or struggling to make decisions you’d usually find easy, this episode is for you.
Brain fog isn’t just tiredness or “stress.” It’s a physiological signal that your brain is under strain, often driven by what’s happening in your gut.
In this episode, Sarah unpacks the real science behind brain fog: how gut inflammation, blood sugar fluctuations, and hormonal shifts impact focus, memory, and decision-making. You’ll learn how neuroinflammation slows down brain signalling, why digestive health plays such a key role in mental clarity, and the practical steps you can take to restore sharpness and confidence.

You’ve been told your thyroid labs are “normal,” but you still feel exhausted, your hair is thinning, your cycles are irregular, and your body just isn’t responding the way it used to. In this episode, I break down why standard thyroid tests often miss the full picture, the crucial role of T3, and how thyroid function affects your hormones, mood, and metabolism. I’ll also share how key micronutrients like selenium, zinc, and iron can make or break thyroid health, and why low levels can leave you with hypothyroid symptoms even if your bloodwork looks fine. If you’ve ever felt dismissed because your labs came back “normal,” this conversation will help you understand what’s really going on and what to look at next.
