Threshold Moments is a podcast about people who follow their hearts to lead their most authentic lives. Along the way they will cross over some thresholds in which it is clear that what once worked, no longer works. The next version is awaiting. The path is unknown, and safety structures will fall away. Once a week, you can expect to hear from incredible guests about the moments that forever changed them. They’ll share their messy middles, the things they can now laugh at in retrospect, the lessons they’ve learned along the way, and the freedom they’ve found by following the pull. You’ll hear about a variety of navigation tools: Some of my guests rely on breathing, fitness, or hot/cold therapy. Some track the moon, their menstrual cycles, their mind set, or sensations in their bodies. Others attune to nature, their spiritual team, and/or dreams. Others use psychedelic medicine and or psychotherapy. No matter the tools, threshold moments tend to be ripe w/ heartbreak, excitement, fear, and possibility. Therefore this podcast is also about companionship because being accompanied and witnessed on the way through can be the most essential layer of support our nervous system and psyches can receive during a time of uncertainty and reclamation. I started this podcast because I deeply honor the full cycle or transformation, not just the sparkly ends. I think it’s inspiring. And, it lets us know we’re not alone on this journey home. My hope is that you will feel that in your bones: you. Are. not. Alone. You are in great company.

Welcome, dear listeners. Today, we continue our exploration of nervous system healing with a lesson on the reticular activating system (RAS) and the power of curiosity. It's important to tend to the RAS, because it helps us break limiting beliefs by learning to ask better questions and manifest new possibilities. And we can learn to engage the RAS by crafting “show me” statements and embracing the power of wonder and awe. These are practices we'll explore in this 30-minute episode and that I'll be teaching in-depth in my upcoming 12-week program, Resourced.

Welcome back to Threshold Moments. Today we're continuing our exploration of nervous system resilience with the transformative power small doable pieces. Sometimes when we feel overwhelmed or find ourselves in a trauma response, we slip into all-or-nothing thinking.

When we're in a situation that feels bad, being able to find nuance and a sense of empowerment is so important. But we also get to feel angry, we get to feel tired, we get to feel sad.

It's an invitation to check in and prioritize a tiny moment of self-care.

This week on Threshold Moments we're doing something a little different. Instead of releasing a heartfelt interview with a brilliant, soul-centered guest, I'm sharing my own story and offering an introduction to the life-changing work of healing your nervous system. For the first time, I'm speaking about how a painful back injury led me on a powerful healing journey toward doing so. much. less. Eventually that guided me toward mind-body-spirit integration through yoga. And I built a very successful business… that I eventually dismantled as I moved through the sleepless portal of becoming a mother. Now I'm excited to share my story and offer my first nervous system healing program. I hope you'll listen to this episode and stick around for our full fall series about nervous system resilience.
