    213 | Nervous System Dysregulation: The Invisible State I Was Living In (And Why I Couldn't Just Push Through Anymore)

    Have you ever felt like your life looks completely fine on the outside, but inside you're barely holding it together?

In today's episode, I'm sharing my very personal journey with nervous system dysregulation in the wedding industry: what it is, how I discovered I'd been living in this state for years (possibly decades), and why I've made it one of my biggest priorities (both in my own life and inside my mastermind, Wedding Pro Insiders). Please note: I am not a medical professional, and nothing in this episode is medical advice. If anything resonates with you, I encourage you to bring it to your doctor.

    In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact plan I would follow to grow a wedding business from 100K to 250K in the next 12 months (including what I'd stop doing, what I'd start doing, and what I'd do differently).
