Feeling drained, overcommitted, or like life is running you instead of the other way around?
In this episode of Giggles & Glutes, Zoë and Donaé dive into the idea of a Feminine Reset — focusing on energy boundaries, nervous system regulation, and reclaiming your personal space without guilt.
We talk honestly about why so many women feel exhausted even when they’re “doing everything right,” how overcommitment impacts stress hormones and sleep, and why saying no is one of the most powerful forms of self-respect. This episode blends science-backed insight with relatable stories, practical rituals, and realistic action steps you can start using immediately.
If you’re ready to protect your energy, rebuild confidence, and move through life feeling more aligned and intentional, this conversation is for you.
