In this episode, Robin shares how nervous system dysregulation impacts exercise tolerance, blood sugar balance, hormone health, and mental well-being, especially for women in midlife. Together, Erin and Robin unpack why intensity isn't always better, how short consistent movement supports resilience, and how nourishment, breath, and self-compassion create true healing from the inside out.

Key Topics: - How Pilates rebuilds connection to the body instead of punishing it - The hidden nervous system cost of high-intensity, all-or-nothing workouts - Why consistency matters more than intensity for long-term health - Nervous system dysregulation, burnout, and midlife hormone shifts - How stress and over-exercise contribute to blood sugar dysregulation - Why protein, fat, and fiber stabilize both mood and energy - Nutrition “noise” to let go of (supplement overload, perfectionism) - Why the body can't heal if it doesn't feel safe - Redefining health beyond body size, aesthetics, and fitness culture - Self-compassion as a biological regulator, not just a mindset shift - Honoring your God-given purpose through sustainable care of your body Download Robin's Lindywell app to access her workouts, recipes, and mediations.

Beautiful soul, this episode is for anyone feeling mentally scattered, emotionally tired, or disconnected from their intuition. Julie is joined by Zelana Montminy for a grounded, compassionate conversation about focus not as productivity or discipline, but as presence, nervous system safety, and spiritual alignment. Together, they explore how constant stimulation, digital overload, and cultural pressure pull us away from our inner knowing, and why slowing down is often the fastest way back to clarity. This episode gently reframes rest as spiritual medicine, focus as a gateway to intuition, and boundaries as acts of self-trust. It's especially supportive for mothers, caregivers, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating burnout, ADHD, hormonal shifts, or major life transitions.

What if the pain in your knees, hips, or even pelvic floor… starts at your feet?

Dear Boss Babe... you've been telling yourself, “I'm fine. I'm just tired. It's just a busy season.” But what if that's not the truth? What if you're ignoring the very signs that are trying to save you?

In this empowering episode, Wendy sits down with hormone health practitioner Kate Nguy to explore how syncing with your hormonal rhythm can transform the way you parent, work, and care for yourself.

Part 3: Nervous System Self‑Care In this episode of the series, I talk about WHY nervous system care matters right now. When we witness threatening events, our nervous system naturally activates — it's literally it's job to protect us. But when that state of activation sticks around — prolonged stress, fear, or hyper-vigilance — we stay stuck in fight‑or‑flight instead of coming back into rest, calm, and emotional safety. I share real, personal examples of what nervous system self‑care has looked like for me in the thick of it — not as a luxury, but as a necessity. Listen in and walk away with: A crystal clear understanding for how and why your nervous system responds. Real examples of what nervous system self‑care can look like in practice — the choices that help you feel regulated, instead of staying 'on edge' or overdrive. 3 simple nervous system regulation tools you can use anytime — breathwork, self-holding, and grounding — to calm your system and create emotional safety. Nervous system care matters more than ever because it gives your body rest and supports emotional safety. This is not self‑care fluff. It's medicine for your nervous system and human experience.

Sara Billups (type 4, 4-5 pairing), author of "Nervous Systems: Spiritual Practices to Calm Anxiety in Your Body, the Church, and Politics," joins us for a conversation about anxiety that's especially needed as we head into Christmas. Sara explores how anxiety manifests in three interconnected ways, and how couples who are in the sandwich generation (Millennial, Gen X especially) navigate personal anxiety, church disillusionment, and political division all at once as their nervous systems rise up in anxiety. Drawing from her experience caregiving for aging ill parents while parenting teens with their own anxiety along with her own anxiety, Sara offers wisdom for couples in the sandwich generation stretched thin caring for multiple generations while trying to protect their marriage. She also unpacks scrupulosity and how being trained to pursue "being good" is often far from healthy holiness, especially for those raised evangelical, and how this performance anxiety shows up in marriage. Sara's prescription for anxiety is holy indifference, the Ignatian concept of open-handedness toward both blessings and trials, not as giving up but as giving into the Spirit, and what this looks like practically when anxious about outcomes or when life isn't going as hoped. Rather than offering prescriptive how-to lists, Sara offered a soothing balm for anxious hearts heading into holiday chaos. Find "Nervous Systems" wherever books are sold. Watch on YouTube, too!

Some callings arrive quietly, long before we have language for them.In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck sits in conversation with Nicole Stratis, whose path into postpartum and nervous system care began not in a classroom, but in the soil—working organic farms, listening to plants, and learning through the intelligence of the hands.Nicole shares how farming and herbalism became early initiations into embodiment, presence, and slowness, and how these earth-based teachings now live at the heart of her work offering sacred touch and conscious care to women—especially during the sacred window after birth.Together, we reflect on the way plants, land, and the natural world invite us back into our own humanness. We explore touch as relationship rather than technique, postpartum care as a continuation of ancient remembering, and the truth that the body already knows how to heal when it is met with reverence and trust.This conversation is for anyone who feels called to caregiving work but senses their path has been non-linear, intuitive, or difficult to explain. It is a reminder that your story—however winding—is already preparing you.In This Episode, We Explore• Embodied beginnings and unexpected paths into caregiving• Farming and herbalism as spiritual and somatic teachers• Sacred touch as a language of presence• Nervous system healing in postpartum care• Trusting the body's innate intelligence• Listening for the call that has been guiding you all alongIf this conversation speaks to something stirring in you, we invite you to stay connected with us and explore conscious postpartum caregiving through the lens of Ayurveda and the Universal Mother Principles.Learn more at www.sacredwindowstudies.comAbout Nicole:Nicole Shea Stratis guides women home into their bodies through the art of sacred touch and embodied presence. Her path to becoming a licensed massage therapist, yoga teacher, and biodynamic craniosacral therapist began in the soil—working organic farms and apprenticing with herbalists across the country—where she awakened to the profound connection between the earth's health and our own. Through modalities including Lomi Lomi Hawaiian Massage, the Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Massage, and Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, she honors the body's innate intelligence as the true healer. Nicole holds space for women to reclaim trust with their bodies, supporting nervous system healing and postpartum care with the deep reverence and presence they deserve.Nicole's Link:About | Nicole Stratis, LMTAre you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out! ⁠Schedule a time with Christine⁠ to find out how this work can transform your care business or provide a meaningful career path.Here is the ⁠link⁠ to our free class@‌sacredwindowstudiesJoin our ⁠Facebook Group⁠Podcast Music is Composed by Sara Emmitt, graduate of the Center for Sacred Window Studies.

Today Jimmy sits down with Meg Del Toro, better known as Kambo Meg, a Kambo practitioner who facilitates one of the most intense and misunderstood healing experiences out there. For those unfamiliar, Kambo is a traditional Amazonian medicine that uses peptides from frog secretion to intentionally activate the body's fight or flight response. It is not psychedelic, it is legal, and it is designed to purge, reset, and regulate the nervous system. Jimmy has personally sat with Meg multiple times and regularly brings her in to facilitate sessions for men in his group. Meg shares her personal story of childhood trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and the long road through therapy, plant medicine, and embodiment work that eventually led her to Kambo. Together, Jimmy and Meg talk about why chaos feels familiar after trauma, how the nervous system gets stuck in survival mode, and why practices like Kambo, Sananga, cold exposure, and breathwork help retrain the body to stay present under stress. They also break down what an actual Kambo ceremony looks like, why surrender matters more than toughness, the role of purging, boundaries, emotional regulation in relationships, and how healing the nervous system changes the way you show up as a partner, parent, and leader. This conversation is raw, grounded, and honest. If you struggle with anxiety, addiction patterns, emotional reactivity, or feeling disconnected from your body, this episode will give you a new framework for understanding why and what you can do about it. Find Meg:Instagram: https://instagram.com/kambowithmegDM her to schedule a discovery call and learn if Kambo is right for you.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Tony Ebel reveals why millions of children are stuck in a chronic cycle of ear infections, sickness, and antibiotics—and how it all traces back to one hidden system that conventional medicine completely ignores: the nervous system.Dr. Tony breaks down the Neuro-Endocrine-Immune (NEI) Super System and explains how birth trauma and early interventions create nervous system dysfunction that keeps kids constantly sick.

Every December, investors ask the same question: "Is it still safe to stay invested, or should I move to cash?"   Today, Jason & Alex break down one of the most common (and dangerous) behavioral questions investors face.

So many women in midlife say the same thing: "I feel heavier inside, and I don't know why." The truth is, hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause can profoundly affect your emotions — often in ways no one ever warned you about. In this compassionate episode of Tea & Truth, Lynne breaks down the real science behind the emotional weight of hormonal change, including how fluctuations in estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and neurotransmitters influence your mood, stress tolerance, sleep, and overall emotional stability. We also explore the human experience — the overwhelm, the irritability, the tears that come out of nowhere, the feeling that small things suddenly feel big, and why midlife tends to amplify everything emotionally.

Child meltdowns spike when plans change because your child's brain feels unsafe and the nervous system goes into survival mode. I'll guide you through Regulation First Parenting™ strategies to calm, support, and help your child adapt with confidence.Every parent knows the moment when plans change and your child suddenly spirals into tears, anger, or shutdown. It feels overwhelming, frustrating, and sometimes even personal—but you're not alone.In today's episode, we explore why these meltdowns happen and practical ways to help your child stay regulated and resilient.Why does my child shut down when plans change?It's not defiance—it's anxiety in disguise. Many children struggle with flexibility because their nervous system craves predictability.When plans change, the amygdala—the brain's fear center—takes over, and the prefrontal cortex responsible for logic goes offline.Small changes feel like danger to a dysregulated brain.Stress accumulates silently throughout the day (think schoolwork, transitions, friendships), filling your child's “stress cup.”Meltdowns are the overflow, signaling their brain is overwhelmed.Parent StoryMaria's daughter, Molly, would explode every weekend when plans shifted. By previewing the day and co-regulating, Maria helped Molly feel safe—and those meltdowns stopped.How can I help my child cope with unexpected changes?The key is regulation first, flexibility second. You can't force a child to adapt if their nervous system is in survival mode. Instead:Preview changes in advance—give gentle warnings or visual schedules.Co-regulate through transitions—model calm, name emotions, and breathe together.Practice flexibility in small doses—switch dinner seating or minor routines while your child is calm.Tip: Every time your child navigates a small change successfully, their brain rewires for resilience. Predictability isn't coddling—it's scaffolding their emotional growth.Why do some kids struggle more than others?Nervous system sensitivity plays a big role.Children with neurodivergence, trauma histories, or heightened sensory experiences often feel emotions and changes more intensely. Their brains are wired to survive, not to negotiate logic in the moment.Over- or under-stimulation can trigger emotional dysregulation.Daily stress adds up, making even minor changes feel impossible.Developmental expectations vary by age, from toddlers needing reassurance to teens pushing back verbally.A tween might say, “You ruined everything!” while a teen might retreat with, “I don't care.” Same nervous system reaction—different expression.Get instant tools to soothe your child's stress and prevent meltdowns—grab your Quick CALM now at https://drroseann.com/quickcalm/What mistakes do parents make during meltdowns?It's natural to want to lecture, explain, or impose consequences—but when the brain is in red-zone survival mode, logic doesn't land.Talk less,

What if the “I'm just in a busy season” story you've been telling yourself is actually masking chronic stress… or worse — the early stages of burnout? If you've been holding everything together on the outside while quietly falling apart on the inside, this episode is your wake-up call. Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on the real difference between chronic stress and burnout — especially for my high achievers who live in hustle culture, normalize overwhelm, and don't realize when they've crossed the line. This is the episode you didn't know you needed. In this powerful and personal conversation, I break down: – Why it feels normal for ambitious women – The subtle symptoms we brush off – How high performers mistake stress for “drive,” “discipline,” and “just another busy season” – The emotional flatlining – The loss of spark – Why rest stops working – How you can be “performing,” meeting goals, and still be deeply burnt out I walk you through clear red flags for each stage and the signals your body has probably been whispering for months. Because stress and burnout need different solutions: – Micro resets for chronic stress – Nervous system regulation – Time-blocking with white space – The “close the loop” method – Sensory slowdowns – And how to rebuild after true burnout Whether you're running a business, leading a team, or carrying the weight of everyone's expectations, you'll walk away with the clarity you've been craving. burnout, chronic stress, high achiever mindset, self care for women, hustle culture, nervous system, productivity pressure, stress recovery, burnout recovery, emotional depletion, mental overload ✨ If this episode hit home, share it with another Boss Babe who needs to hear it.

What if healing isn't something you find, but something you remember?In this deep and grounded conversation, I'm joined by Nicholas Leach, a rising voice in the terrain space, to explore what health really is, why fear is the most damaging biological toxin, and how healing emerges when we return to nature, responsibility, and meaning.We explore:• What health actually means beyond symptoms• The “seven petals of wholeness”• Why fear creates disease, biologically and spiritually• The mind–body connection, placebo, and intention• Nervous system regulation vs embodied coherence• Why suppression is not healing• Symptoms as self-correction and feedback• Terrain vs germ theory and fear narratives• Responsibility, sovereignty, and remembrance• Why there is no magic bullet, only rhythm and meaningThis episode isn't about protocols.It's about coming back into alignment with natural law.

If you've been told to “just do crunches” or “engage your abs” to get a stronger core and/or pelvic floor, this episode is your wake-up call. Dr. Desiree is breaking down exactly what creates real core and pelvic floor strength — and it's not what you've seen on Instagram. We'll explore why traditional ab exercises might be making things worse, how to build strength from the inside out, and what movements you actually need to feel strong, supported, and symptom-free — without burnout.

In this episode, Colleen shares a real moment from her life a few weeks ago. The kind of moment everybody encounters but rarely names. On a Thursday flight, she felt calm, grounded, and uninterested in drinking at all. Forty-eight hours later, on the way out of New York, she couldn't wait for the flight attendant to serve her Chardonnay. Nothing "mysterious" happened in between. Her capacity changed. She unpacks how travel, lost work, accumulated stress, and zero real recovery time pushed her from a green-light nervous system into overwhelm — and how quickly old neural pathways stepped in to compensate. This isn't a story about self-control. It's a lesson in how the brain protects you when you've ignored your own needs for too long. You'll hear what drinking too much actually signals, why overwhelm is a physiological state (not a character flaw), and what changes when you stop treating your habits as moral failures and start treating them as data. Colleen also shares how she recalibrated afterward — not with rules, punishment, or vows, but with space, compassion, and a return to her actual needs.

And, old man Philip Rivers coming out of retirement headlines a wide array of weird QB news in the NFL.
