I had the career, the home, the family — everything I’d worked so hard for.

But inside? I felt numb. Anxious. Disconnected. Like I was going through the motions of a life I couldn’t actually feel.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing the story I rarely tell — the moment I realized I wasn’t just overwhelmed... I was burnt out in a way that mindset shifts and time blocking couldn’t touch.

You’ll hear:

• What my burnout looked like (before I even realized I was burnt out)
• The coping strategies I thought were just “my personality”
• How my body finally said enough — and I had to listen
• The nervous system shifts that helped me feel safe, present, and alive again

If you’ve been holding it all together while quietly falling apart, this one’s for you.

And if you want to experience the kind of shift that helped me recover, I’d love for you to join me in my free workshop, From On Edge to At Ease, happening Tuesday, August 26.

Today is about experiencing.

Instead of more theory, I’m guiding you through a live somatic reset so you can actually feel what nervous system regulation is like in your body.

If you’ve been running on empty, stuck in go-mode, or caught in cycles of anxiety, irritability, or shut-down, this is your chance to pause, soften, and reconnect.

We’ll explore together:
✔️ Why dysregulation can start to feel “normal” — and even productive
✔️ The key differences between survival mode and true ease
✔️ What regulation looks and feels like in your body, emotions, and relationships
✔️ A simple guided practice you can use anytime to shift back into balance

This episode is designed to give you a felt sense of what’s possible when your nervous system is at ease.

And if you want to go deeper, this is exactly the kind of work we’ll be doing together inside my free workshop, From On Edge to At Ease, on Tuesday, August 26.

People-pleasing isn’t just draining — it’s a full-on energy thief and a silent barrier to your power

In this episode, I’m talking with Erica Rooney, who brings over 15 years of insight into how people-pleasing shapes our professional and personal lives — often in ways we don’t realize.

We’re unpacking:
✔️ How people-pleasing fuels that low-grade stress and negative emotions you can’t shake
✔️ The hidden ways it sabotages your career, leadership, and workplace well-being
✔️ Why people-pleasing is more than a “bad habit” — it’s a nervous system pattern begging for healing
✔️ Steps to reclaim your boundaries, confidence, and authentic voice
✔️ How to move from seeking approval to owning your worth in all areas of life

If you’re tired of the exhausting cycle of trying to meet everyone else’s expectations and craving freedom to lead with courage and gentleness, this episode is your wake-up call.

If you’ve ever tried to “positive-think” your way out of burnout — only to still feel edgy, exhausted, or emotionally flat — you’re not alone.

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking why mindset work often falls short when it comes to real burnout recovery — and what your body actually needs instead.

You’ll learn:

• The neuroscience of why mindset tools don’t always land when you’re dysregulated
• Why your body overrides your best intentions
• The difference between insight and integration
• What it actually takes to create sustainable shifts in how you feel and function
  
  

We’ll also talk about the role of somatic tools, how they work, and why this is the foundation of my upcoming workshop, From On Edge to At Ease.

Burnout doesn’t always look like a breakdown.

Sometimes it looks like holding it all together — while feeling like you’re falling apart inside.

In this episode, we’re unpacking three subtle signs your burnout might actually be rooted in nervous system dysregulation — not a lack of motivation, energy, or time.

You’ll learn:

• Why burnout often goes unnoticed in high-capacity women
• The difference between functional burnout and full collapse
• How nervous system survival states mask themselves as personality traits
• What these patterns are trying to protect you from — and how to start shifting them

If any of these signs hit home, I want to personally invite you to my free live workshop, From On Edge to At Ease, happening Tuesday, August 26.

You’ll experience nervous-system-based tools that create real shifts in how you feel — without needing to do more or try harder.
