The Impact of Ambition on Health
Ambition can have significant repercussions on health, particularly for entrepreneurs and highly driven individuals. There is a tendency among this group to neglect their wellbeing, leading to health issues such as hormonal imbalance, brain fog, and chronic gut problems. Common lab findings in ambitious clients often reveal low cortisol levels or hormonal depletion, indicating that they have pushed their bodies beyond sustainable limits. Recognizing that ambition can lead to physical exhaustion is crucial for individuals seeking to maintain their health while pursuing their goals.
