On this episode of The Power Lunch Podcast, hosts Tracie Munce, Amy Sousa, and Lisa Carmichael talk with Dr. Shelly Recer, founder of Eagan Family Chiropractic and Massage, veteran, and mom of six. They explore how stress and mom guilt show up in women’s bodies, why health truly is the foundation of wealth for business owners, and simple, proactive ways women can start prioritizing themselves without feeling selfish.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Chronic stress and busyness often show up as pain, fatigue, anxiety, and poor sleep, especially for women juggling business and family
Your health is directly tied to your ability to be creative, expand your business, and sustain long-term success
Proactive care through movement, clean inputs, chiropractic, massage, and modalities like red light therapy is far less costly than waiting for a crisis
Choosing yourself is not selfish; it is necessary for you to show up fully for your family, business, and community
Community, support, and asking for help are essential parts of a sustainable, healthy life
