Why do high-performing men lose their identity in midlife? After 35 years on the front lines of emergency medicine and over 170,000 patients treated, Dr. Kenneth Ro stepped back and named something he was seeing repeatedly. The men coming through his ER weren't just breaking down physically. They were losing their identity, their edge, and their sense of purpose. In this conversation, Larry Olsen sits down with Dr. Ro to talk about what happens when a man's identity gets fused to his profession, and what to do about it before it costs him his health, his relationships, or his career. What you'll hear: • The Triple Caretaker Effect and why most men get the order wrong • Why "midlife crisis" is the wrong frame and what Dr. Ro calls a midlife inflection point • The Stephen Covey line that most leaders have heard but very few apply: climbing the ladder against the wrong wall • Dr. Ro on why silence is a bigger health risk factor than blood pressure or cholesterol • What happens when I've attached who I am to what I do? ABOUT DR. KENNETH RO Dr. Kenneth Ro is a double board certified emergency physician with 35+ years on the front lines of emergency medicine and over 170,000 patients treated. He is the author of Prime: How to Win the Second Half of Life and the founder of the Reclaim Method, a framework helping high-performing men in midlife rebuild their health, clarity, and confidence.

What if the key to reducing stress, taming inflammation, and building true resilience was already wired inside you? In this illuminating episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely welcomes fellow chiropractor and functional medicine expert Dr. Navaz Habib, bestselling author of Activate Your Vagus Nerve and Upgrade Your Vagus Nerve, to explore the body's most underappreciated healing pathway. Dr. Habib shares his personal journey from chronic health struggles to discovering functional medicine, which led him to a powerful realization: uncontrolled inflammation is the common thread behind most chronic illnesses, and the vagus nerve holds the master switch. He breaks down why eighty percent of vagus nerve signals travel from the body to the brain—not the other way around—and how this changes everything for women navigating perimenopause. Listeners will learn why declining estrogen leaves them more vulnerable to inflammation, how heart rate variability serves as a window into nervous system health, and why protecting sleep is non-negotiable. Dr. Habib also delivers a memorable distinction between comfort and safety, explaining why scrolling a phone may feel soothing but never truly calming. He then offers three practical pillars of vagus nerve training: nasal breathing, diaphragmatic breathing, and longer exhales, with simple temperature therapy to build adaptive capacity. Episode Highlights: Why chronic inflammation is the common path behind most modern illnesses. The surprising truth is that 80% of vagus nerve signals travel from organs to the brain. How declining estrogen during perimenopause worsens inflammation without a strong vagus nerve. The critical difference between comfort and safety—and why your phone can't give you either. Three specific breathing techniques to build vagal tone and increase heart rate variability. Simple temperature contrast methods to build resilience, starting with just twenty seconds. Tune in to learn how to stop seeking comfort and start building the nervous system resilience every woman in midlife deserves.

For many of us, over-functioning doesn't look like a problem. It looks like competence. It looks like generosity. It looks like being the reliable one. In this candid conversation, Kristin and Julie Raines explore the hidden costs of becoming the emotional engine behind relationships, families, friendships, and entire social systems. Together they unpack how over-functioning becomes automatic, why many women were conditioned to equate worth with self-erasure, what happens when burnout removes the ability to keep carrying everyone else, and how nervous system healing changes the way we show up in relationships. They also discuss neurodivergence, hypervigilance, friendship, reciprocity, self-regulation, boundaries, diagnosis, masking, and the surprising challenge of learning how to support yourself instead of constantly supporting everyone around you. If you've ever been the fixer, the helper, the rescuer, the planner, the emotional regulator, or the person everyone depends on, this conversation is for you.Give yourself a gift and subsribe to Julie's writing at Substack.

This one really blew my mind — and I was asking questions I'm genuinely grappling with myself. Kristen Schwartz is a certified trauma recovery coach, author of The Healed Empath, and founder of Realized Empath — a wellness community supporting highly sensitive people and empaths since 2016. Kristen and I dig into how to tell the difference between a trauma response and your highly sensitive nature, why labelling yourself an empath can sometimes mask unresolved trauma, what to actually do with emotions you absorb from other people, and why the next step in the empath journey is taking full responsibility for your own inner state.

Dr. T and Truth Fairy welcome clinical psychologist Dr. Bianca Sebben, whose work bridges complex trauma, dissociative disorders, Indigenous psychology, psychedelic integration, and eco-soul-centric approaches to healing. Drawing from her experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, as well as her research into traditional medicines and cultural safety, Bianca explores what it means to reconnect with humanity's deeper relationship to the Earth. Together, they discuss ecological grief, soul, belonging, and the importance of understanding ourselves as part of a larger living system rather than isolated individuals. The conversation examines the intersection of trauma, dissociation, and psychedelic healing through a developmental and relational lens. Bianca challenges the growing tendency to frame psychedelic medicine as a quick solution for depression, PTSD, or emotional suffering. Instead, she proposes that psychedelics often reveal what has been hidden, initiating a longer process of integration, meaning-making, and transformation. Dr. T, Truth Fairy, and Bianca explore concepts such as soul initiation, descent, grief, structural dissociation, and the risks of seeking transcendence before establishing sufficient grounding, embodiment, and relational safety. Together, they also question dominant medical narratives around treatment-resistant depression, symptom reduction, and pathology. Bianca offers a perspective that reframes suffering as an adaptive response to relational and environmental conditions rather than simply a disorder to eliminate. The discussion highlights the importance of therapist self-awareness, resistance in the therapeutic relationship, Indigenous understandings of wellness, and the need to honour grief without pathologizing it. This episode offers a thoughtful and deeply philosophical exploration of trauma-informed psychedelic care, ecological belonging, and how healing may emerge through relationship, authenticity, and connection to both self and Earth. "We've all come from an ancestry of people that have deep, deep connection to the earth, and those of us that are part of the community of colonization, we're just more disconnected from those origins of our earth-connected connected nature, our true nature." - Dr. Bianca Sebben About Dr. Bianca Sebben: Dr Bianca Sebben is a Clinical Psychologist in private practice with experience working in both public and private sectors, including hospital inpatient settings. Bianca has a special interest in complex trauma, dissociative disorders and working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. In her clinical practice, Bianca provides harm reduction and integration support to clients who have worked with non-ordinary states of consciousness in community and trial settings. Bianca completed PhD in Indigenous Psychology in Mexico, where she looked at incorporating traditional medicines into the western medical system to make it more culturally safe and accessible. Bianca provides training to therapists in providing psychedelic integration, with a particular focus on working with adverse events. Bianca has a special interest in 5 MeO DMT harm reduction and is a lecturer for the FIVE- 5 MeO Information and Vital Education platform. Bianca is also co-founder and Director of Indigenous Psychedelic Assisted Therapies, an organisation which advocates for Indigenous wisdom and consultation in the psychedelic field.

Feeling scattered, busy, or pulled in too many directions? In this Reiki Lifestyle episode, Robyn and Colleen Benelli continue the Mid-Year Reiki Check-In series with a Reiki practice for present moment awareness. Last week focused on the goals, dreams, and intentions you held at the beginning of the year. This week brings you into where you are today. You will learn how to use Reiki on the fly to gather scattered energy, quiet the noise, and return to the present moment. Robyn guides a grounded conversation about present moment gratitude, the Reiki precepts, nervous system regulation, Reiki naps, and how to look at your current life with more kindness and clarity. This episode helps you ask: Where am I today? What is true now? What have I accomplished beyond my to-do list? What parts of my life need Reiki, patience, or gratitude? How can I embrace my current presence with Reiki? When life feels busy or chaotic, Reiki helps you pause, breathe, and receive support. Even a few moments of Reiki on the fly can help you release worry, lower the noise, and find stability in the middle of daily life. This Mid-Year Reiki Check-In invites you to honor who you are today, what you are holding, what you are healing, and what Reiki is showing you now. Key Insights Reiki on the Fly for Stress Reduction Reiki on the fly is a simple practice you can use during a busy day. Pause, breathe, invite Reiki, and let your scattered attention return to the present moment. You do not need a formal session to receive support. Present Moment Awareness This episode invites you to stop reaching into the past or future and notice where you are today. Present moment awareness helps you see yourself more clearly, especially during a mid-year check-in. Present Moment Gratitude Robyn shares how gratitude can shift the way you see your home, your life, your progress, and your current season. The Reiki precept "Just for today, I will be grateful" becomes a practical tool for daily life. Redefining Accomplishment Accomplishment is more than a completed task list. Staying stable, supporting family, holding space for others, receiving Reiki, practicing kindness, and moving through life with patience are also meaningful accomplishments. Reiki Precepts for Presence The Reiki precepts help bring the mind into today. "Just for today" helps release worry, soften anger, receive gratitude, devote yourself to your path, and practice kindness toward yourself and others. Reiki for Nervous System Regulation When energy feels busy, scattered, or chaotic, Reiki helps quiet the noise. A Reiki nap, a few minutes of stillness, or a moment of receiving Reiki can support the body, mind, and energy field. People Also Ask, FAQ How do you use Reiki on the fly? To use Reiki on the fly, pause during your day, take a breath, and invite Reiki to flow. Place your hands on your heart, body, or in Gassho if possible. Ask Reiki to help you gather your scattered energy and return to the present moment. What is present moment awareness in Reiki? Present moment awareness in Reiki means bringing your attention to what is true right now. You notice your body, emotions, thoughts, energy, and daily life as they are today. Reiki helps you meet the present moment with compassion and clarity. Can Reiki help with stress and overwhelm? Yes. Reiki supports stress reduction by helping the body and mind quiet down. Reiki on the fly, Reiki naps, stillness, and the Reiki precepts can help you release worry, settle your energy, and return to inner stability. How do the Reiki precepts help with presence? The Reiki precepts begin with "Just for today," which brings attention back to the present moment. They guide you to release anger, release worry, practice gratitude, devote yourself to your path, and be kind to yourself and others. What does it mean to embrace your current presence? Embracing your current presence means meeting yourself where you are today. It includes your current energy, your body, your emotions, your responsibilities, your spiritual growth, and your lived experience. Reiki helps you honor this moment as the place where your next step begins. What is a Reiki nap? A Reiki nap is a restful time when you receive Reiki and allow the body to relax deeply. Many people experience Reiki naps during sessions or personal practice. They can help quiet mental noise and support nervous system regulation. How can Reiki help with a mid-year check-in? Reiki helps you review your goals and life experience with kindness. It helps you notice what has stayed steady, what has changed, what you know now, and what needs support in the second half of the year.

In this episode, I'm once again in the hot seat! My client and friend Sarah St Pierre sat me down on her Inspired by Design podcast to talk all things Body Language™, nervous system regulation, and hot takes, from both a client perspective and my own. This was such a fun and interesting conversation, and I know you all love this style of episode as much as I love recording them. What we cover:When I first discovered the importance of nervous system regulationThe key moment in my life and business when I realised regulation was the missing pieceWhy talking about the nervous system is so big now and whether social media is helping or hurting our comprehensionThe birth of Body Language™, it's transformation, and when you can expect to see resultsWhat's on the other side for people once they learn to regulateHot takes ranging from popular nervous system tips, what's misunderstood, and who exactly should learn to regulate their nervous systemSomeone online who continuously inspires meLinks mentioned: Gretchen Rubin's Four Tendencies
One of the most confusing parts of the healing journey is not knowing whether what you're feeling is a trauma response or the discomfort of actually growing. I've been teaching about this in my group program and I wanted to bring it here too — because getting this wrong is one of the biggest ways we stay stuck. I walk through what a trauma response actually feels like in the body, what a dis-confirming experience is and why it's so important, the five F's of nervous system response, and the three options I always give my clients when it comes to relational triggers. This one is practical, grounded, and something I wish someone had taught me a long time ago.

What happens when behavior analysts shift from compliance to connection? In this episode of ABA Business Leaders, Stephen and April Smith talk with Sarah Moore, CEO of The Jai Institute for Parenting, founder of Dandelion Seeds Positive Parenting, and author of Peaceful Discipline. They explore nervous system regulation, emotional safety, authenticity, and what it means to show up as a human being.Drawing from her expertise in attachment science and regulation, Sarah explains how emotional suppression affects relationships, leadership, and connection. The conversation highlights how many ABA professionals are trained to “shut it off,” and how that mindset often carries into both business and personal life. They also discuss what it takes to create genuine emotional safety for ourselves and others.Questions To Be AnsweredWhat is nervous system regulation and why does it matter?Why is authenticity important?How does emotional suppression affect leaders?Are we too focused on compliance?How can you regulate during stress?Can unhealthy coping mechanisms prevent emotional growth? Stephen, April, and Sarah discuss how substances, food, and other forms of emotional avoidance can temporarily numb difficult feelings while ultimately making long-term regulation more difficult. The conversation emphasizes building healthier coping skills and developing a wider range of emotional tools.Resources & Links Business Essentials List https://www.3piesquared.com/blog/the-essential-list-for-a-successful-business_24 ABA Business Leaders Support Group https://forms.office.com/r/LLpAHCXUN8 Schedule a Consultation with Stephen https://3piesquared.com/stephen-booking-page Free ABA Business Readiness Assessment https://3piesquared.com/aba-business-readiness-assessment ABA Billing Tips Guide https://3piesquared.com/productDetails/ABA_Billing_Tips ABA Business Leaders Podcast CEUs https://3piesquared.com/productDetails/ABA_Business_Leaders_Podcast_CEUs MarginKeepers: https://3piesquared.com/business-affiliate/MarginKeepers Produced by Max McLellan of MKM Audio.

Women are constantly told to trust their bodies… right up until their bodies start telling them something medicine can't immediately explain. In this powerful and deeply validating conversation, Nicole sits down with Amy Kurtz — certified health coach, patient advocate, speaker, and author of But You Look Fine: Trapped in the Hell Between Sick and Well and How to Break Free — to unpack the emotional aftermath of chronic illness, medical gaslighting, invisible symptoms, and the complicated grief that comes from losing trust in your own body. Amy shares her experience navigating late-stage Lyme disease, seeing 36 doctors before getting answers, and what she calls “medical trauma brain” — the hypervigilance, anxiety, and identity loss that can remain long after physical symptoms improve. Together, Nicole and Amy explore why so many women feel dismissed in healthcare settings, how chronic illness reshapes relationships and self-trust, and why healing is about far more than just getting a diagnosis. This episode is for every woman who has ever walked out of a doctor's office feeling unheard, minimized, or crazy — and for every person who's ever been told, “But you look fine.” We explore: How chronic illness and invisible symptoms impact identity and self-trust The concept of “medical trauma brain” and illness after the illness Why healing isn't linear — physically or emotionally Practical nervous system regulation tools for anxiety and hypervigilance How to support loved ones dealing with chronic illness or perimenopause The connection between women's health, appearance, and societal expectations Why rebuilding agency over your body is essential to healing This conversation is equal parts rage, relief, validation, and empowerment — the kind that makes you feel less alone and more equipped to trust yourself again.

A Parenting Resource for Children’s Behavior and Mental Health
The reason why bedtime is a battle for ADHD and anxious kids often shows up as chaos—but it's really a dysregulated nervous system. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, expert in Regulation First Parenting™, shares how to calm the brain and support lasting emotional regulation.Bedtime shouldn't feel like a nightly battle—but for so many families, it does. When your child is exhausted yet suddenly wired, it's confusing and draining. You're not alone. And more importantly, this isn't defiance—it's dysregulation.In this episode, you'll learn why bedtime struggles happen, what's really going on in your child's nervous system, and how to create calm with simple, doable shifts that actually work.Why does my child get hyper at bedtime instead of sleepy?It seems backwards, right? Your child is yawning all afternoon… then suddenly bouncing off the walls at night.Here's what's really happening: their nervous system has been “on” all day. By bedtime, it doesn't calmly wind down—it releases built-up stress.ADHD kids may show bursts of energy or restlessnessAnxious kids may experience racing thoughts or worry loopsAll kids can hit a “second wind” from being overtiredIt's not bad behavior—it's a dysregulated brain.Real-life example:Your child looks exhausted after school, but the moment you say “time for bed,” they suddenly need a snack, a hug, and 10 more questions. Then… meltdown.Why does my child fight bedtime every night?When kids resist bedtime, it's easy to think they're stalling. But behavior is communication.What looks like resistance is often a struggle with transition—moving from “go-go-go” mode to calm.Bedtime requires shifting from activation → regulationDysregulated kids can't easily switch gearsThe quieter it gets, the louder their internal state becomesBottom line: your child isn't fighting sleep—they're struggling to get there.

What happens when your body starts to heal, but your mind is still trapped in survival mode? In this episode of hol+, Dr. Taz sits down with Amy Kurtz, certified health coach, patient advocate, speaker, and author "But You Look Fine", for a powerful conversation about chronic illness, Lyme disease, medical gaslighting, nervous system trauma, and what it really means to heal.Together, they explore Amy's 20+ year journey through unexplained pain, chronic symptoms, misdiagnosis, and the search for answers that finally led to a diagnosis of late-stage neurological Lyme disease and co-infections. Amy shares what it was like to be told her labs were normal while knowing something was deeply wrong in her body, and how years of invalidation shaped her relationship with her health, her identity, and her trust in herself.Dr. Taz and Amy also discuss why so many people live in the “gray zone” between sick and well, especially when symptoms are invisible, complex, or hard to explain. They unpack why normal labs do not always mean optimal health, why Lyme disease can be missed for years, and how chronic illness can impact relationships, career, emotional safety, and the nervous system.This conversation offers a grounded and hopeful look at what happens after illness, when the body may be improving but the mind and nervous system are still bracing for the next crash. Amy introduces her concept of Medical Trauma Brain, or MTB, which describes the anxiety, hypervigilance, fear, and survival patterns that can remain after chronic illness, cancer, stroke, chronic pain, or any major health crisis.If you're listening to this and thinking, “I know something is off in my body, but I don't know where to start,” join the Circle here:
In this episode, Dr. Tony Ebel breaks down the true root cause of auditory processing disorder — and it's not the ears, and it's not the brain. It's the brainstem. Dr. Tony explains why so many children go through hearing tests, speech therapy, and occupational therapy and still aren't making the progress they should, and what's actually missing from the equation. He walks parents through the neuroscience of how sound is processed, why birth trauma and toxic overload are key triggers, and how Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care removes the interference that's blocking their child's ability to process, communicate, and thrive. This episode is a must-listen for any parent whose child is dealing with auditory processing, speech delays, sensory challenges, or a combination of all three.-----Links & ResourcesFree article: Unraveling the Mystery of Auditory Processing Disorder: An Exhaustive Look-----Key Topics & Timestamps01:00 What Auditory Processing Disorder Actually Is — and Why It's Being Missed03:00 The Ice Cream Truck Moment: What APD Really Looks Like at Home06:00 The Traditional Testing Journey: Hearing Tests, Speech Therapy, and Why Progress Stalls09:00 The Brainstem Is the Middleman: Where the Real Problem Lives17:00 Sympathetic Dominance and Sensory Overload: Why the Brain Shuts Auditory Processing Out23:00 Birth Trauma and Toxic Overload: The Perfect Storm Behind APD26:00 What Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care Actually Does30:00 The Batting Order: How to Layer Your Child's Care Team for Real Results-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocsFacebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs NetworkYoutube: The PX DocsFor more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.Find a PX Doc Office near me: PX DOCS DirectoryTo watch Dr. Tony's 30 min Perfect Storm Webinar: Click Here
I was so excited for this one, and Nicole did not disappoint. Dr. Nicole LePera, the Holistic Psychologist, trained at Cornell University and the New School for Social Research, is the founder of SelfHealers Circle and the author of three books including the number one New York Times bestseller How to Do the Work. In this conversation, Nicole and I go deep into covert narcissism, how growing up with emotional unavailability shapes every relationship that follows, what re-parenting actually looks like in the body, and why healing is never a straight line from A to B. I had so many personal realisations listening back to this one, about my own relational blueprint, my expectations, and how narcissism in my family has quietly shaped how I show up with others.

In this powerful conversation, Brooke sits down with birth educator, doula trainer, clinical hypnotherapist, and founder of Nurture, Erica Paulson, to discuss the often-overlooked connection between your nervous system and your birth experience. Together, they explore why birth is not just a physical event, but a whole-body experience that involves your emotions, past experiences, beliefs, stress levels, support system, and sense of safety. Erica shares how her own birth experiences transformed her understanding of labor and ultimately led her to help thousands of women prepare for birth from a more holistic perspective. You'll learn why emotional safety matters just as much as physical safety, how fear and stress can influence labor progression and pain perception, why oxytocin is one of the most important hormones in birth, and how choosing the right care team can dramatically impact your experience. Whether you're preparing for your first baby or hoping for a different experience this time around, this episode will help you rethink birth preparation through the lens of nervous system regulation, self-advocacy, and trust in your body's design.

Send us Fan MailFor many wives, we're dealing with trauma, survival mode and healing God's way before we even dive into marriage work. Too often you get 2 approaches: the world says boundaries and cut triggers out; Christian world says to do what is right. The former isn't biblical and neither is the latter. God made your body.

According to the American Psychological Association's (APA) “Stress in America” survey, in the last five years, approximately 75% of adults have reported physical or emotional symptoms related to stress. This is a percentage that has risen over the past few decades. This is especially troublesome for the Gen Z population, as the APA reports this generation as having the highest levels of anxiety. The main reported causes for the increased physical symptoms of stress and anxiety are stressors like job insecurity, climate anxiety, debt, and cost of living.With these rising rates of chronic stress and physical symptoms of stress, we need to start finding ways to lessen or eliminate these sources of stress, says Lane Kennedy. Lane Kennedy is a Nervous System Regulation Coach who uses DNA evidence from her patients to create a personalized lifestyle plan based on their genetic polymorphisms. This week, Lane Kennedy joins our host, Dr. Jonathan Karp, and our producer, Kaya Basatemur, to discuss how she does this and why this is so important for people to know.

Busy has become a badge of honor for many of us.In fact, the Urban Dictionary defines “busy” as what people say when they're too overwhelmed to explain what's actually going on. Hmmm, yeah…that feels about right.If there were scout patches for multitasking, overcommitting, and answering texts while standing in line for coffee, a lot of us would have completely run out of room on our sash.We move from task to task, appointment to appointment, often without taking a single breath.This guided meditation is an invitation to pause.

In Episode 2 of Erin's Expansive Series, we will dive into how your nervous system might be standing in the way of your expansion, and what you can do about it. Our nervous systems exist to keep us safe. When we attempt to grow outside of our safe and familiar ‘bubble', the nervous system can activate, filling your body with a sense of alarm, and it can throw you off track in your attempt to expand. That's why learning how to regulate your nervous system is a key to expansion. Today we'll talk about how to support your nervous system so that you can expand in a sustainable way.

Ah Bedtime...It's amazing what your mind can accomplish the moment your head hits the pillow.All day long, you couldn't remember why you walked into the kitchen. And now, suddenly at bedtime, your mind remembers an email you forgot to send, a conversation from six years ago, and three things you should probably do tomorrow.If that sounds familiar, this meditation is for you.This guided bedtime meditation is an opportunity to slow things down, turn down the volume on the mental chatter, and loosen your grip on the day. You don't need to solve tomorrow's problems tonight. You don't need to replay today's events one more time.Instead, draw your attention back to your breath, your body, and this present moment as you prepare for rest.For the moments when your body is ready for sleep but your mind has scheduled a staff meeting, press play.Send us Fan MailFor those who have reached out asking how to support Adrienne and her family during this time, click here to donate.

What if the reason intimacy, connection, and even your desire feel harder right now isn't because something is wrong with you… …but because you're carrying too much? In this episode, Dr. Sonia Wright sits down with physician, coach, and stress researcher Dr. Ali Novitsky for a powerful conversation about the invisible mental load women carry—and how chronic stress impacts everything from relationships and communication to intimacy and pleasure. Together, they explore why so many high-achieving women feel emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected despite doing all the "right" things. Because most women aren't struggling because they need another strategy. They're struggling because they're operating in survival mode. The grocery lists. The caregiving. The emotional labor. The mental load. The constant responsibility. And when your nervous system is overloaded, intimacy often becomes one more thing on an already impossible to-do list. Dr. Sonia and Dr. Ali discuss the connection between stress regulation, family dynamics, communication, emotional connection, and sexual intimacy—and why creating lasting change starts with understanding how stress is showing up in your life. This conversation is honest, practical, compassionate, and full of insights for women who are tired of carrying everything alone. Because intimacy doesn't thrive in exhaustion. It thrives in safety. Connection. Communication. And a regulated nervous system.
What if the only real limit is the story your brain keeps accepting? Kyle and Brent Pease — co-founders of the Kyle Pease Foundation and veteran Ironman competitors — have completed over 150 races together, including multiple Ironman events, with Kyle racing from his wheelchair. But this isn't a story about disability. It's about what becomes available when you decide to see possibility where others see a ceiling. In this episode, Kyle and Brent share how a single question — can people in wheelchairs do an Ironman? — launched a movement that helped over 170 athletes cross more than 1,300 finish lines in one year alone. If you want to lead at a higher level, perform with more grit, and discover what you're actually capable of, this conversation will rewire the way you see your own limits.

When people think about stress management, it's often through the lens of “getting rid of stress.” But stress itself isn't the problem, and in many ways, it actually helps move us forward. The problem is staying stuck in stress all day long without giving your body moments to recover. Learning how to bring yourself back to center before overwhelm takes over is essential, and it starts with nervous system regulation practices you can easily do every day.My guest today is Dr. Kathleen Kelley, a professor of physical therapy, board-certified neurological clinical specialist, certified yoga and meditation teacher, and life coach. She draws on her extensive experience and education in her coaching practice, helping busy clinicians and high-achieving professionals use simple regulation tools to feel more grounded, calm, and in control of their nervous systems.In this episode, we discuss Dr. Kelley's many practical nervous system regulation techniques, why stress release matters more than avoiding stress altogether, and the connection between regulation, emotions, and creating intentional change in your life.This conversation is an invitation to notice how often you give yourself moments of pause, care, and reconnection throughout the day, and to consider how you may be able to give yourself more. The key to a more spacious life is practicing these small moments of regulation and self-connection one day at a time. Let's get started!What you'll learn:Simple nervous system regulation tools and techniques that can be used on the flyWhy nervous system regulation happens through small moments of reconnecting with yourself throughout the dayHow taking care of yourself helps you feel better while also modeling regulation for othersThe neuroscience behind why dysregulation cuts you off from clear thinkingHow manifesting works as a combination of attention, intention, and aligned action that primes the nervous systemYou can read the full show notes here.About Dr. Kathleen KelleyDr. Kelley is a professor of physical therapy at Quinnipiac University. She has taught neurologic rehabilitation, balance, falls, and vestibular dysfunction. Currently, she teaches both gross anatomy and neuroanatomy. Dr. Kelley received her BS in physical therapy from the University of Connecticut, her MS in neurology from Boston University, and her Doctorate in education from the University of Sarasota. She is also a board-certified neurological clinical specialist (emeritus), certified yoga and meditation teacher, and a certified Life Coach. Dr. Kelley's passion for neurology, brain health, wellness, and self-care led her to dive deeply into the neuroscience of stress, stress management, and best practices for brain health. Dr. Kelley applies modern neuroscience to develop practical tools for regulating the nervous system for both educators and clinicians.

In this episode, we explore a question that feels more urgent than ever: what if healing ourselves and healing the planet are deeply interconnected?Monica is joined by author Lindsay Branham, whose book Heartwood: The Wisdom and Healing Kinship of Trees chronicles her personal journey through chronic illness and toward a deeper relationship with the natural world. Guest co-host Florence Williams, bestselling author of The Nature Fix, also brings her expertise on nature, health, and well-being to this wide-ranging conversation.Together, they explore the story behind Heartwood and the experiences that led Lindsay from a career as a war journalist and Emmy Award–winning documentary filmmaker to an exploration of ecology, spirituality, and embodied healing. The conversation delves into interoception – sometimes called our “eighth sense” – and how tuning into the body's internal signals may help us reconnect with ourselves and the living world around us.From chronic illness and nervous system regulation to reciprocal healing, belonging, and even erotic ecology, this episode examines why so many of us are searching for deeper connection in an increasingly disconnected world and what nature may have to teach us about finding it. If you're interested in the intersection of science, spirituality, and healing, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.Show NotesHeartwood: The Healing Wisdom & Kinship of Trees by Lindsay BranhamHeartwood InstituteLindsay Branham on SubstackFlorence Williams The Nature Fix: Why Nature Makes Us Happier, Healthier, and More Creative by Florence Williams Key Words: biophilia, biophilic design, nature connection, healing, planetary health, human health, ecology, spirituality, interoception, nervous system regulation, forest healing, nature therapy, forest bathing, ecological connection, mindfulness, embodiment, emotional well-being, Florence Williams, Lindsay Branham, Heartwood, The Nature Fix, Biophilic Solutions, sustainability, conservation, healing through nature, wild places, environmental psychology, holistic health, connection, natural world, regenerative living, personal transformation, neuroscience, nature and well-being, eco-spirituality, environmental stewardship, intentional livingBiophilic Solutions is available wherever you get podcasts.

What if real change doesn't happen through giant bursts of motivation… but through tiny repeated stitches over time? In this heartfelt and humorous episode, Wendi Bergin shares her idea for a “15-Minute Summer” after realizing that spending just 15 minutes a day learning to quilt would give her nearly 18 hours of practice before her daughter returns to school. That simple realization opened the door to a bigger conversation about overwhelm, motherhood, preparedness, burnout, perfectionism, and why the brain often resists massive projects but responds well to tiny manageable steps. Using quilting as a metaphor for life, Wendi explores how meaningful things are often built slowly: one seam, one square, one tiny faithful effort at a time. She also shares the psychology behind small habits, including how small wins create momentum in the brain and why manageable goals help reduce emotional resistance and procrastination. The episode takes a deeper turn into disappointment and unmet expectations with the phrase: “Yes, thank you.” Wendi discusses how cognitive reframing and emotional resilience can help us continue showing up for our lives even when plans fall apart, routines get messy, or progress feels slower than expected. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, discouraged, or emotionally exhausted, this episode is a gentle reminder that tiny stitches still matter. Your life does not need a giant overhaul overnight. Maybe you just need the next 15 minutes.

This one opened my heart wide open, and I cried with a friend straight after recording it. Chelsea Horton is a somatic coach, educator, and founder of Healing Embodied, where she trains wellness professionals to integrate somatics, creativity, and emotional healing into their work. A former worship leader with a master's in Dance and Movement Therapy, Chelsea went from the most devoted Christian you'd ever meet, engaged to her gay best friend for Jesus, to building a life and practice rooted entirely in embodied truth. Together we explore religious trauma, good girl programming, what embodiment actually means in daily life, and why your emotions are not a problem to solve but raw material for creation.

Nervous system regulation is something I only became aware of a few years ago. And since then, I've been working on healing after years of feeling like I was stuck in fight or flight. (I'm not an expert, so this episode is only focused on sharing my experience with nervous system regulation & somatics.

If you find it incredibly difficult to quiet your mind, drop your shoulders, or stop rushing even when you have downtime, your nervous system may be trapped in a chronic survival loop. In this session, we explore the science of parasympathetic recovery and introduce a powerful somatic affirmation protocol designed to rewrite your internal stress baseline and signal absolute safety to your physical body. In This Episode, You'll Discover: The Anatomy of Restless Rest: Why lying down isn't enough to heal burnout if your nervous system is still cycling adrenaline. The Neurobiology of Affirmations: How pairing specific internal phrases with body awareness directly soothes the brain's alarm system (the amygdala). The Safe Space Awakening: A guided 10-minute somatic immersion to lower your heart rate, dissolve muscle bracing, and anchor you in deep, cellular peace. A Message for Your Heart When you carry so many responsibilities and care for so many pieces of the world, your mind may convince you that staying on high alert is the only way to keep things together. Today, I want to remind you that rest is not a luxury you have to earn after everything else is finished—rest is the very foundation that protects your brilliance. You do not have to fix, force, or control a single thing in this space. You are allowed to take your hands off the wheel. Let the affirmation 'My body is safe and I am at peace' act as a soft, protective shield around your spirit today. You are doing an extraordinary job. This is day 2 of a 7-day meditation series, 3514-3520 Somatic Stress Relief. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY If you are tired of waking up already feeling overwhelmed, running on adrenaline, and dealing with that persistent background anxiety that makes it impossible to focus, you are in the exact right place. This week, we are stepping into a profound, 7-day somatic experience designed to pull you out of survival mode and return you to a state of calm, unshakeable power. We aren't just going to talk about peace; we are going to build it directly into your biology. Over the next seven days, we will layer powerful, science-backed tools—including ancient hand mudras like the Pran Mudra, deep rhythmic breathing protocols, target chakra alignments, and restorative physical resets—to train your body that it is safe to let go. Whether you are navigating a high-velocity career, balancing a mountain of daily demands, or simply trying to quiet an overactive mind before bed, this series is your ultimate biological reset button. Get ready to lower your cortisol, drop your shoulders, and reclaim your inner sovereignty. THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: THE 30-SECOND COLD SPLASH At the end of your morning shower, turn the handle to cold for just 30 seconds. Alternatively, fill a bowl with ice water and submerge your face up to your temples for 10 seconds. MEDITATION TECHNIQUES: DAY 1: VISUALIZATION Visualize yourself seated next to people who calm you. DAY 2: AFFIRMATION "My body is safe, and I am at peace." DAY 3: THE EXTENDED EXHALE BREATHING TECHNIQUE Inhale through your nose for a count of 4, feeling your belly expand. Hold gently at the top for a count of 4. Exhale slowly through pursed lips (like breathing through a straw) for a count of 8. Repeat for 3 to 5 cycles to instantly lower your heart rate and drop cortisol levels. DAY 4: PRAN MUDRA (THE LIFE FORCE SEAL) This mudra acts like a grounding cord for a scattered, anxious mind while simultaneously replenishing drained energy reserves without overstimulating your system. How to do it: On both hands, bring the tips of your ring finger and pinky finger to touch the tip of your thumb. Keep your index and middle fingers extended straight out. Rest your hands on your lap, palms facing up. DAY 5: MULADHARA ROOT CHAKRA When the nervous system is overwhelmed, energy flies upward into a swirling vortex of overthinking. Dropping your awareness down to the Root Chakra—located at the base of your spine—anchors you. Visualize a rich, warm, steady crimson light grounding you deeply into the solid earth beneath you.

What if the biggest thing standing between you and better decisions under pressure isn't your circumstances, but the automatic “autopilot” reactions running your mind without you noticing?In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr Gregory Obert breaks down why we so often react emotionally before we even realise what's happening, and how that can distort our thinking, relationships, and choices. If you've ever snapped, assumed the worst, or regretted a reaction in the heat of the moment, this conversation connects directly to that experience and shows what's actually going on beneath it.By listening, you'll understand:How “autopilot” thinking quietly shapes your reactions and decisions without conscious awarenessSimple mindfulness techniques to interrupt unhelpful thought loops and “defuse” from them in real timePractical nervous-system tools (like sensory grounding and cold exposure) to regain control when emotions spikePress play on this episode to learn how to step out of reactive patterns and respond with clarity even in high-pressure moments.˚KEY POINTS AND TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - How Autopilot Reactions Shape Your Decisions02:35 - What Mindfulness Really Means05:58 - The Johnny Example and Assumptions Under Pressure10:16 - Defusion: Separating Thoughts from Reality12:04 - Simple Mindfulness Exercises to Build Awareness16:15 - How to Interrupt Emotional Reactions in Real Time18:24 - The 0 to 10 Emotional Scale and the Logical Brain21:41 - Using Cold Exposure to Calm Emotional Intensity29:05 - Sitting with Difficult Emotions Without Escaping Them36:07 - Where to Learn More from Dr Greg Obert˚MEMORABLE QUOTE:"It's paying attention on purpose to the present moment, non-judgmentally."˚VALUABLE RESOURCES:Dr Greg's website: https://www.royaloasispi.com/˚Coaching with Agi: https://personaldevelopmentmasterypodcast.com/mentor˚

Laura Jurgens, PhD, traded a career as a biology professor for a very different kind of science: the biology of desire, trust, and human connection. Now a Master Certified Intimacy and Relationship Coach, host of The Desire Gap Podcast, and creator of The Desire Gap Bridge™ program, Laura helps couples resolve mismatched libidos using somatic and nervous system-based methods that create measurable client success. Her integrity-first approach doesn't just get results — it builds the kind of long-term trust that drives reputation and referrals. And it turns out the same principles that repair desire in relationships can transform how businesses earn and keep client trust for the long haul.Visit Laura Jurgens' Website: laurajurgens.com
A powerful conversation on sexuality, nervous system regulation, somatic healing, and why many midlife women lose connection to desire—not because they are broken, but because their bodies have adapted to stress and survival.In this deeply insightful episode, Katie sits down with Dr. Julie Merriman for a powerful conversation about desire, intimacy, nervous system regulation, and why so many women experience disconnection from sex and pleasure in midlife.Drawing from decades of clinical work with women, Dr. Julie explains that loss of desire is often not simply about hormones, aging, or relationship problems. Instead, it is frequently connected to chronic stress, burnout, nervous system overload, emotional labor, and the body adapting to years of survival mode.Together, Katie and Dr. Julie explore how many women become disconnected from their bodies over time—and how reclaiming desire requires more than mindset or performance-based solutions.This conversation offers a compassionate and deeply healing reframe:You are not broken. Your body adapted to survive.

We focus on how grief can intensify anxiety and panic, and we discuss ways to stay supported during this time.We explain that grief is individual and does not follow a fixed timeline. We note that people may grieve differently depending on the relationship, the type of loss, and their own resilience. We also say that grief can apply to many kinds of losses, not only death.We then describe common grief reactions, including shock, numbness, anger, sadness, fear, and anxiety. We mention that physical symptoms can include insomnia, fatigue, and changes in appetite, and we encourage listeners to notice these responses without judging them.We offer practical ways to cope, including meditation, short stress breaks, music, aromatherapy, prayer, and other calming rituals. We also encourage maintaining social support, reaching out to others when needed, and paying attention to sleep, exercise, food, and rest.We close by encouraging journaling, doodling, crying, and other forms of emotional release. We emphasize that allowing feelings to move through can help the nervous system settle and support a return to calm.#Grief, #Anxiety, #PanicAttack, #Loss, #Bereavement, #Mourning, #MentalHealth, #EmotionalWellness, #GriefSupport, #AnxietyRelief, #OvercomingPanic, #ShockAndNumbness, #GriefAnger, #DealingWithSadness, #OvercomingFear, #DealingWithUncertainty, #InsomniaRelief, #Fatigue, #SelfCare, #DailyRoutine, #StressManagement, #StressRelief, #Meditation, #Mindfulness, #StressBreaks, #Aromatherapy, #PetTherapy, #InspirationalQuotes, #SocialSupport, #TherapyWorks, #GriefCoaching, #SupportGroups, #PhysicalHealth, #ExerciseForMentalHealth, #Journaling, #CreativeRelease, #EmotionalExpression, #LetItFlow, #CopingMechanisms, #HealingJourney, #NervousSystemRegulation, #EmotionalRelease, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When you leave an abusive situation without saying "goodbye," it's not ghosting, it's "self-protection." When you quietly exit a relationship after a boundary has been violated, it's not ghosting, it's "self-respect."
