That’s because regulation isn’t about forcing yourself to relax. It’s about teaching your nervous system a new way of being.

Here’s what we’ll cover: The hidden pressures of modern life that keep your stress response on loop.Why “mind over matter” isn’t enough when your body is stuck in survival mode.Simple, body-based practices that build resilience and lasting calm. I’ll also pull back the curtain on the Burnout Recovery Blueprint, my 12-week program where I guide women step by step out of fight-or-flight and into a state of grounded presence. You’ll hear how it works, what we focus on each week, and why it helps create peace that actually sticks.
