They’re productive, capable, and getting everything done, but their nervous system is stuck in survival mode. In this episode, Kerry explains why being high-functioning is often mistaken for being regulated, and why anxiety, fatigue, overwhelm, and physical symptoms don’t resolve until the nervous system feels safe.
