In this episode of Mind Over Matter, we dive into the hidden chemistry of burnout, performance, and confidence with Jenny Evans — global speaker, resilience coach, and founder of Powerhouse Performance and Solon Fire. Jenny explains how cortisol, often misunderstood as just a "stress hormone," quietly sabotages mental clarity, energy, and decision-making. More importantly, she unpacks simple, science-backed rituals for reversing cortisol's effects — without a lifestyle overhaul. From micro-bursts of movement to redefining confidence as action over emotion, Jenny’s insights will help you regain control, protect your energy, and reconnect with purpose in high-pressure environments.

Key Takeaways:
Cortisol isn't the enemy — chronic exposure is. Microbursts of physical activity (30–60 seconds) are the fastest way to reset.
High achievers often confuse endurance with resilience; recovery is not optional.
Confidence is not a feeling, it’s a skill — built by taking action before you feel ready.
Purpose is the fastest mindset reset: if the task doesn’t align with your mission, it’s a red flag.
Micro-recovery (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual) throughout the day sustains peak performance longer than grinding ever will.
