If your body feels more like a performance to manage than aplace to land… this episode is for you.
I unpack what it means to stop treating your body like achecklist, and start treating it like home. I share my own story of chronic tension, emotional over functioning, and the moment I finally learned to stop fixing and start listening.
You’ll walk away with a new lens on nervous-systemregulation — not as self-care, but as strategy — plus a gentle practice to help you start softening right now.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
🌿Why your body isn’t a project to fix — and how to stop managing it like one
🌿What chronic clenching really signals in the nervous system
🌿How softening creates safety, clarity, and emotional bandwidth
🌿A 60-second nervous system reset to try in real time
🌿A nervous-system-first alternative to burnout healing
