CHEYENNE COOK is a health and wellness writer, chronic fatigue advocate, and the creator of the Energy Batching Method. After spending more than a decade navigating ME/CFS, burnout, and the compounding exhaustion of trying to live at "normal" pace with a body that refused to cooperate, she developed the Energy Batching framework as a practical alternative to productivity advice designed for people without energy limitations.
Cheyenne holds a degree in health psychology from the University of Oregon, where her research focused on the psychological impact of chronic illness and the role of pacing interventions in improving quality of life for people with fatigue based conditions. She has written for outlets including The Mighty, Healthline, and Curable, and has been featured on podcasts and in online publications dedicated to chronic illness advocacy, self management, and accessible productivity.
She lives in Portland, Oregon, where she runs the Energy Batching Method online community, a growing space where thousands of people with chronic fatigue from autoimmune conditions, long COVID, post-cancer fatigue, burnout, and other causes share strategies, support, and accountability as they learn to manage their energy instead of fighting it.
When she is not writing or developing new resources for the community, Cheyenne can be found practicing what she preaches: lying in a hammock with a stack of library books, going for short walks when her energy allows, and cooking meals that can be made in three steps or fewer. She believes that rest is not a reward for productivity but a fundamental human need, and that the most radical thing a tired person can do is stop apologizing for their limits.
