What Is Cortisol Really? (It's not the bad stress hormone)

In today's episode, we're talking about cortisol. If you wake up tired and wired… your cortisol rhythm is likely flipped. And no amount of coffee is going to fix it.

I see and hear the scenario on repeat. Stress, stress, stress…must have too much cortisol, belly fat is accumulating, sleep is fleeting and now the person is convinced they have ADHD.

Sure cortisol is related to stress metabolism, but that's only a small part, say 5% of its actual role in the body. Cortisol is really our rhythm regulator, the hormone that decides whether our brain is focused or foggy, our mood is stable or chaotic, and our energy is consistent and lasts through the day or tanks after lunch.

Today, I'm going to show you exactly how cortisol is supposed to work, why your rhythm might be off, and what you can do in the first 60 minutes of your day to completely transform your energy curve.
