In this transformative episode of The Mindful Living, host Sana sits down with Stacey and Justin, founders of Fortify Health Coaching, to explore how the words we say to ourselves shape our health, hormones, and habits. From understanding how stress language disrupts our physiology to actionable strategies for reframing our inner narrative, Stacey and Justin break down the science behind mindset and its direct link to hormonal balance. This isn’t just another wellness chat—it's a deep dive into how language drives biology, and how small shifts in self-talk can create big health breakthroughs.

About the Guests: Stacey and Justin are the co-founders of Fortify Health Coaching. They specialize in helping high-performing individuals build sustainable health by teaching mindset mastery and hormonal balance. With a powerful blend of neuroscience, coaching techniques, and practical tools, they guide clients through the often-overlooked connection between language, stress, and physiological health.

Key Takeaways:

• Mindset is the internal story we repeat—and it directly impacts our stress levels, digestion, sleep, and hormone function.

• “Negation” and “soft talk” words (e.g., don’t, try, maybe) sabotage progress by confusing the brain and weakening intent.

• The brain’s reticular activation system focuses on what we repeatedly think or say—so we must train it to notice what we do want, not what we don’t.

• Writing down your internal stories slows them down, creates clarity, and helps interrupt negative patterns.

• Chronic stress from looping thoughts elevates cortisol and disrupts sex hormones, digestion, and blood sugar balance.
