42: Building a Flexible Nervous System with Ama Rouge and Ella Mesma PowerUp!

“The more that I feel safe, the more that I’m able to be creative, and the more I’m able to be creative, the more I’m able to express myself, and the more I express myself, I express my boundaries…and so on…”
 
We share candidly about some of our life experiences which have led us to choosing to (and having the privilege to) build more flexible nervous systems in our lives. How do you tell yourself you’re safe and how are you building a more flexible nervous system?
