✨What if you’re not broken… you’re depleted?✨
In Episode 52 of SoulShift, Ali and Mindy sit down with Dori Martin to explore a question so many women in midlife are quietly asking:
“Why am I doing everything right and still not feeling like myself?”
Dori is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and HTMA practitioner who helps women connect the dots between mineral balance, stress, metabolism, hormones, nervous system capacity, and energy.
After experiencing profound burnout through years of caregiving and chronic stress, Dori discovered that the answer wasn’t simply to push harder, exercise more, take more supplements, or keep searching for the next wellness strategy.
Sometimes, the body is asking us to slow down.
In this conversation, we explore what can happen when years of being a high achiever, caring for everyone else, and constantly pushing beyond our capacity finally catch up with us.
We talk about mineral balance and HTMA testing, why standard blood work may not tell the whole story, why supplements aren’t automatically the answer, and why taking more of something simply because it’s “low” can miss the bigger picture.
But this episode goes far beyond labs.
It’s about learning to listen to your body, rebuilding your capacity, returning to the foundations, and letting go of the belief that you have to keep doing more to be okay.
And Dori gives us one beautiful reframe to remember:
We’re complicated plants living in a modern environment that doesn’t always fit our physiology or psychology. 🌱
If you’ve been feeling exhausted, depleted, stuck, or like the things that used to work just aren’t working anymore, this conversation is for you.
