You’re Not Just Tired — You’re Dysregulated: Haley Scellick Explains Why

In this episode of the Overhaul Podcast, Preston Lyons sits down with Haley Scellick, nurse practitioner and co-founder of First Responder Health and Wellness, to address a hard truth: many first responders are operating in chronic stress and calling it “normal.”

Haley explains how fatigue, poor sleep, mood swings, weight gain, and declining performance are often early signs of hormonal imbalance and stress dysregulation — not just part of the job. She breaks down cardiovascular risk in the fire service, the impact of shift work on hormones, and why proactive lab work and individualized care matter.

The conversation challenges the reactive culture of “wait until something breaks” and replaces it with a preventative, data-driven approach to health. From nutrition and sleep hygiene to stress physiology and telemedicine solutions, this episode is a blueprint for protecting your longevity — both in your career and at home.

If you’re serious about staying strong, sharp, and present for your family, this conversation matters.
