Dr. Jen Wagner joins the DisruptHer podcast to talk about burnout, sleep, and why women in midlife need a new kind of care team.
Burnout doesn't announce itself. It creeps in through missed sleep, skipped workouts, and a body that no longer responds the way it used to. Canyon Ranch’s Chief Health and Performance Officer, Dr. Jen Wagner, recently joined Dr. Somi Javaid on her DisruptHer podcast to talk about what's really happening inside a burned-out body and why women in midlife deserve a different model of care. Press play to hear Dr. Wagner break down the physical signs of burnout, why sleep is the foundation for everything else, how movement should change with age, and the two tests every woman should ask her doctor for.
