Why I do this
I Should Feel Worse Now That I’m Older. I Don’t. Here’s Why.
I there! I’m Lorena
— My story doesn’t start with a crisis. It starts with ice cream.
For years I ate horribly — processed food, sugar, all of it. I had no idea food was connected to how I felt, how I thought, how I remembered things, how I showed up. Every month when my period came I’d crave sugar, junkfood, eat it, and completely fall apart emotionally. Depressed for no reason. Out of control. Hitting rock bottom on a schedule — and not understanding why.
People at work noticed I wasn’t sharp. A friend told me. It was humiliating. And I still didn’t know what was causing it.
Then one day I just… ate well. No processed food, no sugar. And the next morning I woke up feeling completely different.
That was the beginning.
I’m Esther Lorena — IIN certified health coach, and the woman on the other side of adrenal burnout. I built this space because I needed it to exist. A place where the science is real, the conversation is honest, and women over 40 are finally told the truth: your body isn’t broken. It’s asking for something specific. And when you give it that — when you honor your hormones, support your adrenals, and stop running from stress and start moving through it — something shifts.
You start to feel alive again. Purposeful. Free.
That’s what I’m here for. Not to give you another protocol to perfect. But to show you that taking care of your body is the most powerful yes you can say to yourself.
