In this episode, Emily Williams sat down with Georgie Shears, a nervous system strategist who has transformed her own journey with anxiety into a powerful mission to help others regulate their nervous systems and live authentically. Georgie shared her story of overcoming debilitating anxiety and panic attacks, leaving a challenging relationship, and building a life rooted in self-awareness and empowerment. 

Together, they explored the transformative impact of nervous system regulation, practical tools for managing anxiety, including the 5-4-3-2-1- Technique (shared below) and how embracing your truth can unlock a life better than your dreams.


Key Takeaways

  • How nervous system regulation can transform your experience of life.

  • The importance of self-awareness and identifying patterns from the past.

  • Practical techniques to manage anxiety and cultivate resilience.

  • How tuning into your senses can create calm in moments of stress.

The 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique is a step-by-step process for reconnecting with the present moment:

  1. 5 Things You See: Identify and name five things around you.

  2. 4 Things You Feel: Notice four physical sensations.

  3. 3 Things You Hear: Tune in to three distinct sounds.

  4. 2 Things You Smell: Acknowledge two smells nearby.

  5. 1 Thing You Taste: Focus on the taste in your mouth or imagine your favorite one.

This practice activates the senses and connects the brain to the present moment, reducing the sympathetic nervous system’s stress response. Use this for grounding yourself during times where you are experiencing anxiety, racing thoughts or overwhelm.

Emily Williams:

Host, Emily Williams is a success coach, author, speaker, and CEO of multiple brands.

After falling into a quarter-life crisis and struggling through a string of low-paying jobs (including serving up lattes at Starbucks), she finally decided it was time to follow her heart. So she packed her bags, moved to London (where she knew no one), and launched her own coaching business, I Heart My Life (without knowing if she’d ever make a dime). And that’s when her whole life changed course.

In her first month in business, Emily earned $442. She then went on to hit 6 figures before her 30th birthday, and—after just 18 months—successfully scaled what she'd started to a multi-million dollar empire.

Today, she remains the CEO of I Heart My Life, which has evolved into a media, educational and lifestyle brand through which she carries out her mission of helping thousands of women worldwide to create a life better than their dreams.
