High Capacity – Nervous System Regulation, Stress Management, Burnout Recovery, Somatic Tools, Anxiety, Boundaries, Overwhe

Michelle Grosser – Inspired by Mel Robbins, Dr. Andrew Huberman, and Dr. Becky Kennedy

You've built a full life. The career, the family, the responsibilities, the goals — all of it.  And the fuller it gets, the more stretched thin you feel. Not because you lack the discipline or drive to figure it out. But because your nervous system was never upgraded to match the life you've built.  High Capacity is the podcast for ambitious women who are done just managing their stress and are ready to actually expand what they can hold.  Hosted by trial attorney turned nervous system strategist Michelle Grosser, each episode unpacks the nervous system science behind why you feel maxed out, reactive, and depleted — and gives you real tools to expand your capacity across every area of your life. This isn't just about doing less.  It's about becoming someone whose nervous system can hold more — more joy, more presence, more of the life you've worked hard to build, and more of the demands that come with it — without the low-grade stress that's become your new normal. Here’s what you’ll learn: - How to expand your emotional, stress, physical, relational, and joy capacity - Nervous system-based tools that work in real life, in real time - How to identify your Capacity Pattern — the specific strategy your nervous system defaults to when you're overwhelmed — and what it means for your stress, your relationships, and your daily life New episodes every Tuesday and Friday. Tuesdays bring the nervous system science and tools. Hi-Cap Fridays give you one practical move to expand your capacity in the week ahead.

    452 - Connection-Based Parenting for Raising Strong-Willed Kids with Wendy Snyder of Fresh Start Family

    What if the version of you that shows up at 6pm — snapping, threatening the iPad, locking herself in the bathroom for 30 seconds of peace — isn't a parenting problem at all?  What if it’s a nervous system problem? Wendy Snyder is back on the show & this conversation is the one-two punch I've been waiting to bring you.  Wendy is a certified positive parenting educator, founder of Fresh Start Family, and host of the Fresh Start Family Show.  Her brand new book — Fresh Start Your Family: Powerful Parenting to Restore Peace in Your Home — comes out at the end of May, and inside it, she walks parents through the exact framework she used to break a generational pattern of reactivity, yelling, and corporal punishment in her own family.  We talk about why the high-achieving women in our community are particularly wired for reactive patterns at home (hint: the same nervous system that earned you the promotion is the one snapping in the kitchen), why "powerful parenting" is the opposite of "power over" parenting, and what it actually feels like in your body when you parent from your prefrontal cortex instead of your amygdala.  If your nervous system feels like it can hold the boardroom but not bedtime, this one is for you. What you'll learn: The one belief most of us inherited about misbehavior that keeps us locked in reactive patterns (and what to replace it with)Wendy's "closed behavior to open behavior" process — how to find the space between What it looks like to trust your kid's humanity — Wendy's "let it grow" approach Why your kids will start cooperating not because they're scared of you, but because they actually look up to youResources Mentioned: - Our First Conversation with Wendy - Wendy's Book Fresh Start for Your Family -- >>> Register for The Capacity Audit free live workshop June 3rd  -- 🧠 What's your capacity pattern?  Take the free 2-minute quiz and unlock The Capacity Code — a personalized private podcast episode for your specific nervous system.  → Take the Capacity Pattern Quiz
