Podcasts about nervous system regulation

Text Me!What if the bravest thing you do is stop negotiating with alcohol?In this episode of the Sober Vibes Podcast, Courtney Andersen sits down with women's mentor and certified EFT tapping practitioner Sophia Grinjella to explore what really happens after you decide to quit drinking and how to actually stay alcohol-free without white-knuckling.Sophia shares how quitting alcohol at 29 reshaped her identity, friendships, travel experiences, and daily energy. What started as years of moderation and “trying to control it” eventually led to a full pivot into presence, health, and self-trust. A key part of that transformation? EFT tapping—a powerful blend of cognitive and somatic work that helps regulate the nervous system, calm cravings, and replace liquid courage with embodied confidence.Together, Courtney and Sophia unpack the messy middle between deciding to quit and truly living free. They talk about grief for the old self, navigating FOMO, setting boundaries with friends, and learning how to show up at dinners, dates, airports, and social events without a glass in your hand.In this episode, you'll learn:What EFT tapping is and how it works for cravings and anxietyHow daily tapping routines can reduce urges and ease FOMOWhy the moderation cycle stalls real changeRegulating the nervous system to build absolute, lasting confidencePractical tools for airports, dinners, and social eventsHow to replace “liquid courage” with self-trustThis episode is for anyone ready to stop bargaining with alcohol and start building a life rooted in calm, clarity, and self-trust.Resources Mentioned:Subscribe to my YouTube Channel1:1 CoachingMy Book Connect with Sophia:WebsitePODCAST SPONSOR:This episode is sponsored by Soberlink, a trusted accountability tool for anyone navigating early recovery.

High performance often leads to burnout, decision fatigue, and a body that never feels settled. This episode reveals what high capacity actually feels like in your nervous system — and why identity safety is the foundation of sustainable peace, presence, and leadership.High achievers know how to perform — but many quietly wonder why their body never fully relaxes, even when life looks good. This episode maps the felt experience of becoming a High Capacity Human, where identity safety replaces pressure, bracing, and survival-driven success.Drawing from nervous system science (Polyvagal Theory), embodied psychology, and identity formation, Julie explores the quiet but unmistakable shifts that happen when your identity begins to match the life you're leading. This is where burnout recovery deepens, decision fatigue lifts, and the body finally stops keeping score of old roles you've outgrown.Inside this episode, you'll learn:• the somatic cues that signal you're moving from high performance to high capacity • how ventral vagal safety feels compared to sympathetic “readiness mode” • why identity margin creates the internal space your nervous system craves • the surprising way your body tells you the truth long before your mind does • how co-regulation and relational safety expand your ability to lead • what “identity safety” feels like in real life — calm, connected, and unforced• why presence, not pressure, is the actual pathway to sustainable impactJulie also names a truth high-capacity humans rarely hear:you don't need to become more — you need room to be fully you.Ask yourself:“Where in my life does my body feel the most permission to soften — and what does that tell me about who I'm becoming?”Then explore:• What sensation rises when I allow myself to be fully present?• What identity am I reclaiming in that softness?• What tension drops when I stop bracing?Team extension:“What would shift if our culture valued steadiness over urgency?”If today's episode gave you language your body has been trying to speak, leave a rating and review so more high-capacity humans can find The Recalibration.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

High performance often leads to pressure, bracing, and identity drift. This episode reveals how high achievers move from survival-driven excellence into grounded, high-capacity presence. Learn why reducing identity load—not adding discipline—creates real freedom.Why does high performance eventually feel like pressure instead of possibility?In this episode, Julie unpacks the identity and nervous system map behind the shift from high performer to High Capacity Human, showing why bracing becomes your default and how alignment—not more discipline—creates the internal expansion you've been craving.You'll learn how three types of load quietly accumulate beneath your success:• Cognitive Load — the tasks you track, manage, and anticipate• Emotional Load — the responsibilities you hold for others• Identity Load — the version of you that performs instead of expressesTogether, these loads create the pressure, sympathetic activation, and identity margin that make even good seasons feel heavier than they should.Julie breaks down the difference between negative drive (pressure, vigilance, survival) and positive drive (presence, grounded clarity, internal safety), offering a transformational reframe:Capacity isn't what you produce —It's who you become when your life and identity finally match.This episode helps high-capacity humans name:• why they brace even when nothing is wrong• why performance feels safer than presence• why approval, excellence, and responsibility became identity• why calm feels unfamiliar• the emotional and physiological signs of identity margin• how reducing identity load increases internal capacity• why capacity begins where bracing endsThis conversation also clarifies why mindset work and productivity tools are insufficient for true change.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) goes deeper — past habits, past hacks, past performance patterns — into the root of who you are.It's not another strategy.It's the foundational identity shift that makes every other tool effective again.Micro Recalibration (Individuals + Teams)Ask yourself:“Which version of me is carrying the most load — and which part of that load is no longer mine?”Notice:• What shifts in your posture or breath when you step into that version?• What would 2% less bracing feel like in that moment?Team Extension:“What unspoken expectations shape how we perform — and what would change if we valued presence over pressurIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Do you ever feel like your body is reacting for you—especially in moments of stress or around certain people?In this powerful episode, I sit down with Jessica Bishop, a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Yoga Teacher, to dive into her personal journey of healing anxiety, nervous system regulation, and living with essential tremors. Jess shares her experience of relying on medication for years, and how somatic healing and learning to regulate her nervous system not only transformed her physical symptoms, it changed the way she relates and shows up with others.We explore how Jess's essential tremors, panic attacks, and chronic anxiety once controlled her life—and how somatic practices, emotional regulation, and embodiment  brought real, lasting anxiety relief. She talks about how she reduced her need for medication, left an unhealthy marriage, and learned about secure attachment, leading to a healthier relationship and a deeper sense of emotional safety in her body.This conversation gently unveils how body-based therapy and somatic practices can heal trauma, transform anxiety, and reshape the relationships you attract—starting with the relationship you have with your own body.In this episode, you'll learn:Simple somatic tools for healing anxiety and stressThe power of emotional safety in trauma recoveryHow somatic practices help regulate your nervous system and stress response.What it feels like to experience secure attachment in your bodyHow nervous system regulation can support healthier relationshipsThe difference between intellectual awareness and embodied awareness. Why yoga is often the gateway practice into somatic experiencing. How to tell the difference between a "threat response" and the feeling of "butterflies"If you're on a journey to trust your body again or notice how your relationships impact your nervous system, you're not alone. Your body has wisdom, and as you create more safety, it has the potential to change.Much love,LaurieClick here for a video on how to leave a review to receive a free somatic stabilization/grounding exercise.

Send us a textCan group intention really heal, influence biology, and change reality? In this episode, we explore the science of collective consciousness and focused intention with investigative journalist and bestselling author Lynne McTaggart (The Field, The Intention Experiment, The Power of Eight).Lynne shares compelling evidence from large-scale group intention experiments showing how human consciousness can measurably affect the physical world — from biological changes in plants to improved health outcomes and reductions in community violence. Designed with independent scientists, these studies challenge conventional ideas about mind, matter, and healing.We trace Lynne's journey from sceptical reporter to pioneer of intention research, and break down what actually works: why specific intentions outperform vague wishing, why short 10-minute intention windows are most effective, and how collective focus supports nervous system regulation, emotional wellbeing, and healing.Lynne also introduces The Power of Eight®, a simple weekly practice where small groups focus intention for one person at a time — often producing remarkable physical, emotional, and psychological shifts.The takeaway is practical and empowering: consciousness connects us, and when aligned with clarity and compassion, intention can heal and transform — personally and collectively.Ready to test your mind's reach?

High performance often feels like pressure because your nervous system learned to brace, not rest. This episode unpacks why success triggers activation, why calm feels unfamiliar, and how to shift from survival patterns into grounded, high-capacity presence.Why does success feel heavier than it should — even when nothing is wrong?For many high-capacity humans, the answer lives in the nervous system. This episode offers a clear, practical walk-through of Polyvagal Theory, showing why performance so often feels like pressure, why the body braces even in moments of confidence, and why “I'm fine” rarely matches what's happening internally.Julie Holly breaks down the three primary states (ventral vagal, sympathetic, dorsal vagal) in simple, real-life language, helping you understand:why your baseline feels elevated even on your best dayswhy calm feels unfamiliar for high achieverswhy your nervous system treats success like a situation to managethe link between chronic activation and identity driftthe internal cues (tight jaw, lifted shoulders, shallow breath) that reveal your statehow interoception helps you identify bracing before it becomes burnoutwhy your nervous system's loyalty to old stories makes pressure feel safer than presenceYou'll hear how these states explain the internal “edge” so many high performers live with — a form of identity dissonance and success fatigue that rarely gets named.Julie also offers a compassionate reframe:Your system isn't malfunctioning.It's remembering.It learned to keep you steady in earlier seasons of your life, and it's been loyal to that pattern ever since.Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) DistinctionThis episode makes it clear why mindset work or productivity hacks fall short.ILR works at the root level — where nervous system patterns, identity, and belonging intersect. It's not another strategy to “push through.” It's the recalibration that makes rest possible, presence accessible, and success feel like something you can actually enjoy.You'll learn:• what sympathetic activation feels like for high achievers• how dorsal vagal shutdown disguises itself as “I'm just tired”• why your nervous system confuses activation with safety• how identity performance keeps you bracing even in good moments• what it looks like to move into ventral presence without losing your edge• why capacity begins where bracing eIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

It feels productive and addictive at times - but research shows it often magnifies negative emotion, narrows perspective, and predicts depression, anxiety, relapse, and stalled healing.If you grew up intelligent, self-reliant, and undertrained in emotional regulation, your brilliance may actually be working against you - not because you're broken, but because your nervous system never learned how to feel safe before solving problems.In this episode, I share the turning point from my own journey- how insight kept piling up while real-life results didn't change and ground it in long-term psychological research. Large-scale longitudinal studies show that rumination predicts the onset of depression (even in people who weren't depressed to begin with), increases anxiety and trauma symptoms, and is linked to poorer outcomes in talk-based therapies when rumination isn't addressed directly.We break down what actually helps: • Why problem-solving fails when the nervous system is dysregulated • How rumination keeps you stuck in defense instead of healing • Why insight alone doesn't create relief • How biological safety restores clarity, context, and forward momentumYou'll learn how compassion interrupts the inner courtroom, why your body—not your thoughts—holds the signal for change, and how to recognize the exact moment to shift from thinking to sensing.We also explore how rumination hijacks attention, causes you to miss real opportunities right in front of you, and keeps highly intelligent people stuck for years - not because nothing changes, but because their system can't perceive change.You'll leave with practical, body-led prompts you can use today:regulate first, name the feeling without judgment, then choose the next small, grounded action.Your mind isn't broken. It's brilliant and overburdened.Give it a safer body to think from, and clarity returns naturally.If this resonates, follow the show, share this episode with someone who overthinks, and leave a quick review to help others find it.

Episode 103 | Life's Wisdom.

Midlife can feel like a perfect storm—menopause, stubborn weight gain, bone loss, shifting identities, and an unexpected rise in loneliness. In today's episode of Asking for a Friend, we're digging into one of the most overlooked drivers of women's health in their 40s, 50s, and 60s: disconnection—and why rebuilding community may be as powerful as lifting heavy or optimizing your hormones.My guest, Terry Tateossian, is a Harvard-trained, ISSA-certified personal trainer, nutritionist, emotional-eating coach, hormone specialist, and founder of THOR: The House of Rose Retreats, where hundreds of midlife women have transformed not just their bodies—but their confidence, connection, and sense of purpose.We talk about:Why loneliness is the new smoking for women in midlifeHow community improves metabolic health, adherence, motivation, and emotional resilienceTerry's personal transformation from obesity, burnout, and hospitalizations to becoming a leader in women's wellnessThe recurring struggles she sees in midlife women—under-eating protein, chronic dieting, hormone confusion, and the pressure to stay smallHow retreats create safety, belonging, and joy—often sparking lifelong friendshipsThe smallest, simplest steps you can take today to feel less aloneWhy lifestyle foundations matter more than ever—protein, strength training, stress reduction, and nervous system regulationIf you've been feeling isolated, stuck, or unsure how to reconnect with the adventurous, vibrant woman you used to be, this conversation is going to speak straight to you.You can find Terry Tateossian at:https://www.thehouseofrose.com/womens-wellness-retreats/https://www.instagram.com/thor.wellness/ https://www.instagram.com/how.good.can.it.get/_________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

There's a particular moment many of us know well — when everything feels like too much. Not dramatically, but quietly, heavily, relentlessly. You're still functioning, still showing up, but inside, something is fraying. And the most painful part? The story you tell yourself about it: I should be able to handle this.In this episode, we explore why overwhelm isn't a personal failure — it's a predictable outcome when multiple vulnerabilities align. Using insights from the Swiss Cheese Model and Paul Gilbert's three emotional systems, we unpack why your nervous system can't "just cope" when recovery is structurally unavailable.This isn't about becoming stronger. It's about understanding why one small change can still matter — even when everything feels impossible.We'll explore:Why overwhelm is rarely about one thing — it's an accumulation of pressures that alignHow the Swiss Cheese Model explains why burnout happens when recovery becomes impossibleThe three emotional systems (Threat, Drive, and Soothing) and why modern life keeps two constantly activatedWhy your nervous system needs recovery cycles, not just more willpowerHow one small change can close one vulnerability — and why that mattersWhy resistance to small changes is often a sign of how depleted you areSend me a DM_____________________________________________________________________ Visit jenniferwalter.me – your cosy tree house where tired perfectionists and those done pretending to be fine find space to breathe, dream, and create real change.

Episode 115. In today's episode, I'm joined by the amazing Jazz Leaf, nutritional therapist, private chef, wellness creator, and a woman who somehow makes healthy eating feel fun, flavorful, and genuinely doable. We walk through what shaped her love for food to discovering how nourishing meals transformed her own health.Jazz shares what it was really like working as a private chef for athletes, how she fueled performance, and what goes into prepping multiple meals a day at that level. We also talk about how her relationship with wellness has evolved from intense cycling to slower, more grounding movement, dialing in the basics, and navigating recovery after her cycling accident.We get into pregnancy priming (movement, and supplements), what becoming a mom has taught her, and how she introduces wellness to her daughter in a fun, digestible way.

If you've been dealing with constant dizziness and brain fog and you can't figure out why you feel off, spacey, or not fully in your body, this episode is for you. Dizziness and brain fog are not just random symptoms or signs of aging – they're often your brain's way of screaming that your balance system is overloaded and undertrained. Constant dizziness and brain fog can also quietly wreck your focus, drain your energy, spike your anxiety, and sabotage how you show up at work, in the gym, and in your relationships. In this episode, you'll learn why what feels like a “mind problem” is often actually a balance problem – and how to start changing it from the ground up.Human Performance Specialist Caydrick Bloomquist breaks down the hidden role of your brain's balance network in mood, focus, stress, and sleep, and why most guys never get taught how to train it on purpose. Caydrick's work in Neuro-Functional Training and Mental Fitness shows that when you start working directly with your balance and awareness systems, you can shift how you feel faster and more powerfully than just trying to “think positive” or meditate harder. Instead of floating through your day half-present and half-dissociated, you learn how to get back in your body, stabilize your system, and actually feel like yourself again.You'll hear how balance drills and vestibular-focused work – including spinning, head movements, and targeted visual-vestibular exercises – can literally help rewire your brain. These inputs tell your nervous system, “You're safe and in control,” which can calm anxiety, clear brain fog, and reduce that ongoing dizzy, floaty feeling in a way that sitting still often can't touch. If meditation has felt too slow or frustrating for you, this conversation gives you a more active, body-based way to train awareness, presence, and emotional regulation.We also explore why your balance system is really your awareness system – constantly feeding your brain information about where you are in space. When that system is off, your brain feels unsafe and ramps up symptoms like dizziness, weird vision, brain fog, irritability, and emotional overreactions. When you tune this system up, you don't just stand steadier; you think clearer, react calmer, and sleep deeper because your brain finally trusts your body again.If you're a man who's tired of living with constant dizziness and brain fog, feeling like your brain is always half a second behind, this episode gives you a new map for what's actually going on – and a path forward. You'll walk away with a new understanding of why you feel the way you feel, plus practical ideas and a fresh respect for the “hidden hardware” driving your mood, focus, and performance.Hosted on Ausha.

You know what to do in your business, but for some reason, you're not doing it. Sound familiar?In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by subconscious success alchemist and identity coach Mindi Huebner to dig into the real reason so many high-achievers feel stuck, burnt out, or like they're constantly self-sabotaging.Mindi explains how your subconscious beliefs are quietly calling the shots behind the scenes, and shares how to finally shift those patterns so success doesn't just look good on the outside but actually feels good on the inside. TAKEAWAYS:Your subconscious is running 95% of your day. So if you don't believe success is safe, sustainable, or aligned with your values, no strategy will stick.Limiting beliefs often stem from early childhood, societal conditioning, or “bro culture” business advice, and they show up as identity gaps that keep you playing small.You don't need to become someone new. You need to shed the old layers that no longer serve you. Growth is an evolution, not a reinvention.Mindi's simple brain rewiring hack—“From now on, in the future, next time”—is a powerful shift away from shame and toward possibility.RESOURCES:Check out the blog post for this episode, with additional details, by clicking here.Stop guessing what to say in your sales emails.

Ruth and Tom explore the crucial difference between the mind and the brain, and why stress, trauma, and learned patterns can distort our thinking.Introducing AHA Problem Solving, this episode shows how calming the nervous system allows the brain's natural intelligence to generate clarity, insight, and genuine “aha” moments—especially around health anxiety, relationships, and life decisions. The discussion also touches on neuroscience, homeostasis, and what artificial intelligence reveals about human cognition under stress.Key Takeaways:• The brain and mind are not the same• Stress impairs decision-making• The brain holds innate wisdom• Regulation restores claritySupport the showThanks for listening!You can follow us onFacebook Instagram Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Check out the Autonomic Healing Website & InnerWorkings WebsiteEmail Tom thomasjpals@innerworkings.orgEmail Ruth ruth@bridgeandrhino.comSupport usWe appreciate you!

Hey lady! You know we’re all about our gentle growth and continuous improvement over here so we’re excited to share an episode that will help grow your toolkit for whatever life may bring your way.As we heal and process it’s common to notice where your childhood has yet again shaped your behavior and caused patterns that at one time seemed normal but now no longer serve you. Growing up in environments where our caregivers were doing the best they could with the tools they had means that we may not have always had the space to be your full self. And, if you grew up in a Black household it’s entirely plausible to not be allowed to feel your feelings and bury them instead.But, we’re grown now and you are not only allowed to feel your feelings but you are encouraged to and there are frameworks that can help. This week, Dr. Dom and Terri present the RULER method, a powerful tool that can help you make your way through difficult and complex emotions so that you can remain in your sovereignty and stand in your integrity.This five-step method can help you meet life as it comes, which will help you loosen the grip of needing to control life. Understanding your emotions offers you more choice in your experience, which can lead to feeling more stable, grounded and having increased capacity to feel the richness and beauty that life has to offer you. Using RULER in Real Life· Recognizing: “How do I know what I’m feeling? What signals does my body send?”· Understanding: “Where did this emotion come from? Is it layered with past wounds?”· Labeling: Talk about the power of language—using words like “disrespected” vs “angry.”· Expressing: “Who is safe to share this with? What’s an empowered way to show this?”· Regulating: Tools and tips (breathwork, journaling, therapy, movement, prayer, etc.)Quote of the Day:“If you don’t know what you’re feeling, it’s hard to know what to do with your feelings.” – Dr. Marc Brackett Goal Mapping Starter GuideCultivating H.E.R.

High performer burnout feels personal, but overwhelm is physiological — not failure. Today we unpack why your system hits a threshold long before your mind does, and how to reset in real time without losing momentum. A grounded, identity-rooted recalibration.When high-capacity leaders feel overwhelmed, they often blame discipline, mindset, or capability. But overwhelm isn't a character flaw — it's a physiological threshold.In this episode, Julie Holly breaks down how burnout, decision fatigue, and chronic pressure form an elevated baseline state that keeps leaders braced, buzzy, and overloaded even when life looks “fine” on paper. Through the lenses of somatic regulation, co-regulation, allostatic load, and the lived experience of high performers, Julie names what your body has been trying to tell you for years.You'll learn:• why overwhelmed leaders hit depletion without looking depleted • how your nervous system reaches “capacity max” long before burnout appears • why your system reacts to tone, pace, and urgency (co-regulation) • the difference between discipline and dysregulation • how elite performers like LeBron James regulate in real time • how Identity-Level Recalibration offers the only sustainable pathway to grounded leadershipThis episode brings the psychology, neuroscience, and lived experience together — and offers three grounded, real-world nervous system resets you can use immediately.And as always, Julie names the one truth most leaders have never heard: you're not overwhelmed because you're weak — you're overwhelmed because you've been carrying too much without internal safety.Today's Micro Recalibration: “Where does overwhelm show up first in my body — and what would help me feel 2% safer in that moment?”Team Extension:Ask your team:“Where do we unintentionally create overwhelm — and what would 10% more calm look like in our culture?”You'll learn more truth from this than a month of strategy meetings.ILR isn't another mindset tactic or productivity tool. It's the root-level recalibration that makes every other strategy finally work.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

In this soft stream-of-consciousness transmission, we drop into breath, presence, and embodied awareness together. This episode invites you to release the roles, expectations, and identities you've been holding — and return to the spacious you underneath it all.You'll be guided through gentle breath cues, somatic grounding, and a remembering of your divinity, sovereignty, and “onlyness.” We explore self-mastery not as mindset work, but as a field reconstruction — a repatterning of your emotional body, nervous system, and energetic architecture.Inside this episode, we explore:• the dissolving of identity + returning to your center• honoring your uniqueness and inherent worth• karmic patterns, soul lessons, and emotional density• the difference between mental reprogramming + energetic reconstruction• brain–heart coherence and nervous system repatterning• segment intending + conscious self-dialogue• non-attachment, surrender, and letting things “breathe”• tuning your body like a vessel for light codes• the Great Remembering — awakening to who you truly areThis transmission is here to help you soften, open, and realign with the highest version of you.Your presence is powerful. Your awareness is medicine.You are the YOU that the world needs. ✨✨ Download the free Wheel of Fulfillmenthttps://www.iambecomingweightless.com/

Send us a textIn this week's episode of Showing Up Whole, Christina step intothe Holiday Season with intention. Instead of rushing into the familiar holiday shoulds, she pauses to ask a powerful question: What are we actually celebrating?In a season filled with expectations, traditions, and emotional weight, it's easy for sensitive, heart-led women to disconnect from themselves and put themselves on a shelf. Today, Christina explores how the holidays can become a doorway back to your inner light rather than a drain on your energy.She starts by looking at the deeper essence beneath every cultural holiday: light, hope, renewal, and the faith that life returns even in the darkest season. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Diwali, solstice, or something uniquely yours, the theme is the same; remembering the light within and around you.You'll hear stories from her childhood, how family traditions have shifted through the years, and why joy, comfort, and meaning often show up in simple rituals like music, movies, nourishing food, and shared presence.Explore how holiday stress disconnects you from your truth, and how to sort your shoulds from your joys so you can choose what actually supports your nervous system, your energy, and your spirit.If you're craving a grounded, sacred reset this season, join Christina for her free Winter Solstice Ritual of Light on December 21st. We'll meditate, release the energetic clutter, reconnect to your inner fire, and celebrate the return of light together.And don't forget to download your free guide, Three Practices for a Calm Holiday Season, plus a bonus 7-minute meditation to help you stay centered no matter how busy life gets.This year, choose calm over chaos, alignment over pressure, and joy over expectation.Make this the season you remember who you really are.Christina Fletcher is a Spiritual Alignment coach, energy worker, author, speaker and host of the podcast Showing Up Whole.She specialises in practical spirituality and integrating inner work with outer living, so you can get self development off of the hobby shelf and integrated as a powerful fuel to your life.

Have you ever noticed that your biggest insights rarely show up when you're forcing yourself to figure something out? They arrive in the shower, on a walk, in the quiet moments between all the doing. They come when your mind finally slows down enough for something deeper to surface. In today's episode of The Inner Edge, Janet explores this “higher wisdom” we all have access to but rarely create space to hear.Drawing from neuroscience, decades of leadership coaching, and personal stories, Janet reveals why relying solely on rational analysis leaves our decisions incomplete and how integrating intuition, stillness, and embodied awareness leads to truer, more aligned choices. In a world obsessed with speed and productivity, reconnecting with our inner intelligence is not just helpful, it's essential.In this episode:✅ Why your deepest insights emerge when you stop overthinking✅ How leaders limit themselves when they rely only on rational analysis✅ What neuroscience reveals about intuition and the default mode network✅ How to create stillness to regulate your nervous system and think more clearly✅ What your body signals before your mind catches up✅ The power of stepping away to let unconscious processing work for youAbout Janet Ioli:Janet Ioli is a globally recognized executive advisor, coach, and leadership expert with over 25 years of experience developing leaders in Fortune 100 companies and global organizations.She created The Inner Edge, a framework, a movement, and a message that flips leadership from mere success performance to presence; from ego to soul. Through her keynotes, podcast, and programs, Janet helps high-achievers find the one thing that changes everything: the mastery within.Her approach redefines leadership presence—not as polish or tactics, but as the inner steadiness people feel from you and the positive imprint you leave on individuals and organizations.Chapters for Apple Podcasts00:00:00 Beyond Rational Analysis00:10:37 Awakening Inner Wisdom00:16:22 Slowing Down for ClarityConnect with Janet Ioli:Website: janetioli.comLinkedin: Janet IoliInstagram: @leadershipcoachjanetIf you want to become more grounded, confident, and aligned with your deeper values in just 21 days, check out Janet Ioli's book Less Ego, More Soul: A Modern Reinvention Guide for Women.

Christina shares her personal journey of navigating emotional waves, hormonal shifts, and the surprising discovery that inner peace becomes possible when you consciously choose to turn down stress rather than simply endure it.You'll hear her explore: • Why stress isn't just a feeling, it can be an emotional indicator of spiritual connection OR an emotional indicator of hormonal imbalance! • How perimenopause amplifies emotional sensitivity and creates a deep invitation to rediscover yourself • The connection between stress, survival mode, and disconnection from your soul's alignment • Why claiming inner peace is both radical and necessaryChristina also walks you through three practical, holistic ways to reduce stress right now:Reshaping your schedule — creating space, shortening to-do lists, and building in “phone-off” daysEliminating unnecessary drama — observing without absorbing, releasing old patterns of emotional entanglementLetting go of control — working with the flow rather than forcing outcomes, and co-creating with the universeShe shares real examples from her life, including how releasing control around family expectations and holiday traditions has brought more joy, spaciousness, and ease.You'll also learn how simple practices; herbal teas, lowering sugar, grounding rituals, small daily resets, and supportive self-observation, help regulate the nervous system and bring the body back into balance.As we move into the holiday season, this episode invites you to become your own compassionate observer.

Send us a textIn this episode of Healing Mindset, I had the opportunity to sit down with Nazish and take a deep dive into one of the most mission-critical conversations of our time: re-parenting the five-year-old inner child. This is the age where so many of our emotional blueprints take shape—our early coding around love, safety, belonging, expression, and visibility.I unpack how emotional imprints are formed not just in childhood, but as early as the womb. These imprints quietly drive adult behaviors—jealousy, anxiety, people-pleasing, overachieving, emotional shutdowns—and most of the time, they're not “adult issues” at all. They're the unspoken needs of a silenced inner child asking to be seen, held, and led.During this conversation, I share practical, energetically aligned ways to recognize your inner child's signals and how to respond without re-opening old wounds. Re-parenting isn't about fault-finding—it's about stepping into emotional leadership. It's about becoming the deeply present, regulated, and compassionate parent your five-year-old self needed so you no longer outsource your worth to relationships, family dynamics, or performance.If you feel blocked, disconnected from joy, or stuck replaying the same relationship patterns, this dialogue gives you grounded frameworks you can deploy across your life—work, love, family, and self-worth. You'll walk away with a forward-looking roadmap for nervous system safety, trauma repair, and authentic self-connection that enables not just personal healing but generational transformation.About Me:I'm an intuitive empath, healer, and spiritual teacher dedicated to supporting “adult children” who never had the chance to fully recover from early emotional injuries. My work centers on inner child healing, generational trauma release, and energetic re-patterning.Through live transmissions, energy work, and guided inner journeys, I help individuals reconnect with their five-year-old self, reclaim their creativity, and build the internal safety they've long been missing. My core philosophy is simple: when you become the emotionally available parent you never had, everything in your life recalibrates—your relationships, your health, your leadership, and your joy.Key Takeaways:Inner child wounds are not trendy language—they are the foundational drivers behind recurring patterns in relationships, work, and self-worth.Your inner child speaks through triggers, shutdowns, and “childlike” emotional reactions. These are insights, not weaknesses.Re-parenting is an act of radical ownership—stepping into the role of your most emotionally present caregiver.Core emotional templates can begin forming in the womb. A mother's internal world often becomes the child's first nervous system environment.Healing doesn't require reliving trauma.

Anxiety isn't just in your mind; it lives in your body.In this deeply restorative episode, Heidi Hadley, Certified Clinical Somatic Educator and founder of Total Somatics®, reveals the missing link in traditional approaches to anxiety: movement.Discover how your nervous system holds onto stress, why your muscles stay tense long after your mind has calmed, and how somatic movement can help you release anxiety from the inside out. Through slow, mindful practice, Heidi teaches you to calm your body's alarm system, restore ease to your breath, and create lasting emotional balance.If you've ever felt “stuck” in anxious energy, this episode will help you reconnect with safety, softness, and self-trust.

A patient arrives at shock trauma with flesh-eating bacteria, limbs appearing unsalvageable. Hours later, after treatment in a massive submarine-like chamber, those same limbs show signs of recovery. This pivotal moment launched Dr. Scott Sherr's journey into the world of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and its untapped potential for metabolic healing.Victoria Field welcomes Dr. Scott Sherr, a board certified internal medicine physician who transformed his practice after witnessing HBOT's dramatic effects during his medical training at University of Maryland's trauma center. Now Director of Integrative Hyperbaric Medicine at Hyperbaric Medical Solutions, Dr. Sherr has pioneered protocols that marry hyperbaric therapy with nutritional optimization and metabolic health strategies.Questions Answered in This Episode: What sparked his interest in branching out into hyperbaric oxygen therapy? Why does he recommend waiting three months before intensive protocols? What is the "sympathetic spiral of doom"? What excites him most about the future of hyperbaric medicine? What's his vision for creating integrated healing ecosystems?This conversation reframes hyperbaric medicine not as a standalone treatment, but as a powerful tool within a comprehensive metabolic optimization framework - one that could fundamentally change how we approach healing and human performance.Learn about Dr. Scherr's work with Troscriptions here.Special thanks to the sponsors of this episode:✅Genova Connect – Get 15% off any test kit with code METABOLICLINK here.✅Cowboy Colostrum - Get 25% off when you use code METABOLICLINK at checkout here.✅ Branch Basics - Get 15% off your Premium Starter Kit here.In every episode of The Metabolic Link, we'll uncover the very latest research on metabolic health and therapy.

Do you ever wonder why it feels like everyone else is healing faster than you or your child?Comparing timelines is something I see a lot of and it's something I have experienced myself. It can be really hard to be months into your journey and see someone else making remarkable progress in just two days! There's this quiet pressure most women carry, and no one really talks about it out loud. The pressure to grow faster. Heal faster. Figure things out faster. To not fall behind. To keep pace with whatever invisible timeline we think we're supposed to be on. And when healing is part of the story, that pressure multiplies. You start comparing your child's progress to someone else's. You compare how quickly someone else's skin cleared or how fast another woman felt “better” in her body. You start thinking your timeline means something about you. Or your motherhood. Or your effort. Or the choices you've made.Your timeline is not a measure of how well you're doing. Your timeline is a mirror of who you're becoming.Healing isn't just symptoms leaving the body. It's the nervous system learning safety again. It's the mind slowly moving out of survival mode. It's the body trusting itself enough to let go of things it's been holding for years, gosh, for most of us… our entire lives. And deep growth, the kind you actually feel in your bones, never happens on a schedule. It unfolds in the pace your life can hold. The pace your motherhood can hold. The pace your nervous system can hold.Thanks for listening!

Adam Coloretti spent six years living with pelvic and back pain that began after gym injuries. He discovered TMS and the mind–body connection in year five and became pain-free. In this episode, Adam shares the tools that helped his recovery:building an evidence list, journaling without filters, allowing anger, and practising self-compassion. We talk fear, setbacks, and why recovery isn't about perfection.

You will learn about the five macro minerals as the big players that run your electrical system, stress response, thyroid, blood sugar, and detox pathways, and why I always start with a straightforward hair test before worrying about smaller numbers.What is really happening when these core minerals drift out of balance and you feel fatigued, anxious, constipated, bloated, unable to sleep well, or emotionally numb while your blood work keeps looking normal? Chronic stress, mold, gut and absorption issues, restrictive eating, big hormonal transitions, and even over filtered water can quietly drain these minerals long before anything shows up clearly on your standard labs. Your body has been compensating for years using every mineral trick it has to keep your blood looking stable, and the question is whether you'll help it move from survival back into actually feeling good.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:49] What a cellular-level mineral test reveals long before blood work changes[04:57] How calcium can steady your system or silently block hormonal signals[05:51] The surprising ways low magnesium derails energy, mood, and digestion[06:52] What sodium levels expose about your stress load and resilience[18:52] How mold strips key minerals and creates the “four lows” pattern[20:26] Why arsenic and other heavy metals rise when minerals crash[32:40] What it really takes to move from mineral survival mode back to stabilityResources Mentioned:Master Your Minerals Course | WebsiteOther Hormone Healing episodes to listen to:Zinc deep dive | EpisodeCopper deep dive | EpisodeIron deep dive Part 1 | EpisodeIron deep dive Part 2 | EpisodeAll about the Copper IUD | EpisodeSelenium deep dive | EpisodeNothing boring about Boron | EpisodeMaster your minerals.

Join our Patreon for bonus episodes with more mold resources!What if the reason your mold protocol isn't working is because your body's not ready for it?In this episode, I'm joined again by Gracie Sanchez, RD, our brilliant mold expert here at Hormone Healing. If you've ever thought that jumping straight into a mold detox was the way to go, Gracie will teach you why this mindset often backfires and how to focus on rebuilding the basic systems that mold has already broken down.It's not uncommon for people to rush into binders and antimicrobials before their body can handle them. Doing so while ignoring vitally important things like your circadian rhythm, mineral intake, and nervous-system balance can easily keep your symptoms stuck on repeat. Pushing through reactions can do a lot more harm than good… so tune into this episode to learn what has to come first before you even think about detoxing.This is a part 2 of a 2-part series where Gracie and I cover everything about mold and how to prevent it.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[03:19] The foundational systems your body needs in place before addressing mold toxicity[05:22] How skipping these foundations can make you more symptomatic during detox[07:09] What really triggers a histamine storm and why calming your system first matters[08:38] The critical difference between pushing through symptoms and listening to your body[09:54] Which gentle tools can help stabilize your immune system before full detox support[14:07] Why food-based binders may be safer for sensitive bodies than supplements[16:13] How simple hydration and electrolytes can transform your body's detox capacity[21:05] The pros and cons of mold testing, and when it's actually useful[30:03] The key minerals and nutrients mold exposure rapidly depletes and why they matterYou can work 1:1 with Gracie here.Master your minerals.
