    45. The One Where You Feel Safe to Speak Up with Elise Besler
    Jan 21 2026
    Have you ever swallowed your words, softened your boundaries, or kept quiet to avoid conflict, only to feel exhausted afterward? In this powerful episode of The Fatigue Fixer, Dr. Sarah Vadeboncoeur sits down with Somatic Voice Coach Elise Besler to explore how self-silencing and holding back your truth can drain your energy more than you realize.Elise shares the transformative practice of voice liberation: not about singing perfectly or speaking loudly, but about letting your truth move through your body instead of staying stuck. Together, they unpack why the voice is deeply connected to the nervous system, how suppression creates chronic tension and fatigue, and why using your voice (even through something as simple as humming) can help you feel more alive, grounded, and energized.Whether you struggle to speak up at work, set boundaries, or express your needs in relationships, this episode offers compassionate insight and practical tools to help you reclaim your voice, one small step at a time.What You’ll Learn:What Voice Liberation Really MeansWhy liberating your voice is less about performance and more about allowing energy, authenticity, and truth to flow through your body.The Energetic Cost of Self-SilencingHow not speaking up can contribute to migraines, chronic fatigue, IBS, anxiety, PMS, and burnout and why your body responds this way.Voice, Safety & the Nervous SystemWhy your voice shuts down when your nervous system doesn’t feel safe, and how creating “relative safety” can expand your capacity to speak up.How to Build Capacity (Without Overwhelm)The importance of titration: making small, tolerable shifts rather than forcing big, uncomfortable conversations.The Healing Power of SingingHow singing, humming, or chanting can regulate your nervous system, release emotional tension, and reconnect you to yourself even if you don’t consider yourself a singer.Why Using Your Voice Helps Fix FatigueSelf-suppression is energetically expensive; expressing your truth frees up energy and helps your system relax.Final Doctor’s OrdersPick a song and sing it — in the car, in the shower, in your kitchen.Pay attention to the shift.Voice liberation starts exactly where you are.💌 Leave Me a Voicemail!I want to hear from YOU.Share your questions, stories, or reflections about using your voice — your message might be featured in a future episode.Leave me a voicemail here.Elise Besler is a Somatic Voice Coach and healing practitioner who helps singers, speakers, and creatives reclaim and awaken their voices - so they can speak and sing their truth without fear and stress.

    In this practical, myth-busting episode of The Fatigue Fixer, Dr. Sarah tackles one of the most common (and misunderstood) prescriptions for fatigue: exercise. If you’re tired, busy, overwhelmed, or stuck in an all-or-nothing mindset, this episode will help you rethink movement in a way that actually feels simple and doable.

    Sarah breaks down why feeling tired isn’t a reason to avoid exercise, how our increasingly sedentary lifestyles are quietly fueling fatigue, and why small, consistent movement habits matter far more than perfect workouts. From “exercise snacks” to NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis), this episode offers realistic strategies to help you move more — without guilt, overthinking, or burnout.

    What You’ll Learn
    • Why Exercise Matters for Fatigue: Why movement is one of the most powerful tools for improving energy, even (and especially) when you feel tired.
    • How Sedentary Life Is Catching Up to Us: Eye-opening stats on physical activity levels in women and kids in Canada, and how work-from-home life has changed our daily movement.
    • Thinking Traps That Sabotage Exercise: How All-or-nothing thinking (“If I can’t do it perfectly, why bother?”) is keeping you stuck and busting motivation myths and why your brain is wired to resist movement
    • The Power of Small, Doable Movement: Why exercise snacks (8–10 minutes!) beat big, unrealistic plans and how consistency compounds over time.
    • Listener Question: ‘Why Don’t I Look Different?’: A compassionate reframe on why visual changes aren’t the best measure of exercise success and what benefits actually matter most.
    NEAT: The Unsung Hero
    How everyday movement (walking, chores, fidgeting) often impacts energy and metabolism more than formal workouts.

    Making Movement Fun (Again)
    Why enjoyment, social connection, and play matter more than discipline and how fun keeps habits sustainable.

    Actionable Takeaways
    • Something is always better than nothing.
    • Choose fun and accessible activities over complicated plans.
    • Prioritize consistency over intensity — twice a week for a year adds up fast.
    • Stop using beauty standards as motivation; focus on strength, energy, and function.
    • Build movement into daily life with short exercise snacks.
    • Let your phone screen time be a reminder to move your body.

  • 43. The One Where You Honour Your Natural Rhythms with Tina Lamontagne

    43. The One Where You Honour Your Natural Rhythms with Tina Lamontagne
    Dec 21 2025
    In this nourishing winter episode, Dr. Sarah is joined by Tina Lamontagne, founder of Seasons with Tina, for a grounding conversation about seasonal living. Tina shares why tuning into your body’s internal rhythms, changing energy levels, and evolving needs is essential for managing fatigue.

    Together, they explore how honoring natural energy cycles, embracing winter slowness, and living in alignment with your own needs (rather than external pressure) can restore energy, resilience, and well-being. They also examine how aligning with the natural rhythms of the day and the seasons—instead of pushing against them—can help reduce fatigue, build resilience, and restore energy. Drawing on Ayurveda, lived experience, and practical rituals, this episode offers a gentler, more intuitive approach to self-care that supports body, mind, and spirit, especially in winter.

    If you’ve been feeling tired, disconnected, or like your usual routines just aren’t working right now, this conversation will help you understand why and what to do instead.

    What You’ll Learn
    • Why Winter Makes You Want to Slow Down: Why the urge to “hibernate” is not laziness and how resisting it can actually worsen fatigue and burnout.
    • What Seasonal Living Really Is: And how the practice of adapting routines, expectations, and care to match your changing needs — just like nature does.
    • Ayurveda & Energy Rhythms: An introduction to Ayurvedic principles, including the doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and how daily and seasonal energy cycles influence mood, digestion, and vitality.
    • Morning Rituals That Set the Tone: Simple, intuitive practices that help anchor your nervous system and honor your body’s internal clock.
    • The Afternoon Energy Dip: Why the midday slump is normal and the best type of work/activities to do in the afternoon.
    • Reconnecting with the Kitchen: How shifting your relationship with food and cooking from “chore” to ritual can support nourishment, pleasure, and emotional well-being.

    Winter Care for Vata Season
    Practical ways to nourish yourself in winter, including:
    • Warm, slow-cooked, and nourishing foods

    • Root vegetables, grains, and healthy fats

    • Warming spices (ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg)

    • Warm hydration (including gentle oil-supported hydration)

    • Restorative rituals like abhyanga (self-massage), snana (bathing), and moments of silence (mouna)

    Practical Takeaways
    • Start your day with intention, not urgency.

    • Let your body — not productivity culture — guide your routines.

    • Treat meals as grounding rituals, not just another task.

    • Build small, doable rituals (even one minute counts).

    • Embrace winter’s slower pace as restorative, not something to “push through”.
