INSIDE THIS WEEK'S EDITION:
❤️🔥WHAT YOUR BODY IS TRYING TO TELL YOU 🗳️THIS IS POLITICAL (AND PERSONAL) 🧘♀️ONE THING TO RELEASE THIS WEEK 🧹TOOL I'M TESTING 🌙COSMIC CORNER
Happy Tuesday, Reader!
This one's for you. ❤️🔥 Starting today, Wicked Informed is evolving. It'll have the same honest voice, same no-fluff format (because I listen to you, ADHD besties!) and now we're going deeper.
We're diving into burnout that lives in the body and energetic field, living by your Human Design, looking to the stars for guidance, and into healing that shows up in your lab results and therapy sessions when you finally tend to the whole picture.
If you've been here for business content, thank you! You're going to love the new direction we're going in. One of my core beliefs is that we run our businesses as WHOLE people, aka we're much more than our careers.
(And yes, the branding is changing too. We're creating something completely new!)
So let's do this! 👇

❤️🔥WHAT YOUR BODY IS TRYING TO TELL YOU
The Energetic Side of Cortisol
If you're doctor has mentioned adrenal fatigue, burnout, or that your cortisol is a little off, first let me begin with, SAME. Most of us are running with a nervous system that has been running an emergency protocol for so long it's forgotten what normal feels like.
Cortisol is supposed to spike when there's a threat and drop when the treat is gone. But most of us can't tell the difference between a genuine threat and an email in our inbox. Which is kinda part of the grand design of those in power as if the news wasn't enough to keep us stressed the eff out (hello Hanta virus outbreak!).
Our bodies aren't getting the "all clear" signal so we're just in a continual low boil state of stress. Your energetic body is holding onto that stress because you haven't been able to process it yet. Thankfully, you can do something about it. My first recommendation would be to put your phone down in another room and do something analog once in a while.

Burnout ≠ a willpower problem. It's rooted in your nervous system and has an energetic root. When you treat both, your entire system responds. |

🗳️THIS IS POLITICAL (AND PERSONAL)
The Unpaid Work Nobody is Counting, Except Your Body
Did you know the latest reports say that unpaid care work (cooking, cleaning, being your family's unofficial chauffer, managing appointments, remembering everyone's everything) is worth somewhere between $10 and $15 trillion annually in just the United States?
Some states have launched their paid family and medical leave programs this year, but most of the US is far behind. While paid family and medical leave isn't a cure-all, it can certainly help pick up some of the slack our nervous systems are begging for.

🪤THE TRAP
Internalizing the exhaustion as personal failing or as something that will never change.
|
|
💪THE MOVE
Name it out loud, at a minimum. If you have capacity, contact your reps to encourage them to introduce legislation that takes the pressure off women, caregivers, and marginalized populations.

🧘♀️ONE THING TO RELEASE THIS WEEK
Release the Belief That You Have to Earn Rest
Rest is not a reward. It's a literal biological need. So, in case you need to hear it again, get some rest! When you're well-rested, your brain makes better decisions, you can listen to that inner wisdom voice, and clarity becomes something you just have and don't have to continue chasing.
YOU DID ENOUGH YESTERDAY. YOU'RE GOING TO DO ENOUGH TODAY.
