Podcasts about nervous system regulation

High performance can create burnout and decision fatigue when your pace punishes your peace. In this episode, Julie Holly shows you how to slow down without losing your edge—so excellence becomes overflow, not exhaustion.You've done the work, built the success, and carried the weight. But lately, your pace feels heavier than your purpose. In this Saturday reflection of The Recalibration, Julie Holly guides you from concept to practice—from understanding peace to actually living it.Drawing on neuroscience and lived experience, she explains why information alone doesn't change people—embodiment does. When you've lived in performance mode for years, your nervous system forgets how to feel safe in stillness. That's why rest can feel like loss and peace can feel like pressure. But through repetition, not revelation, your body can learn that peace isn't weakness—it's strategy.You'll learn:Why high performers mistake stillness for stagnationHow to retrain your nervous system to feel safe when slowing downWhy peace actually sharpens your precision instead of dulling itHow to measure transformation by alignment, not outputBecause when excellence is rooted in identity, it stops draining you and starts defining you. That's the difference between high performance and high capacity—the difference between achieving for validation and creating from alignment.The Recalibration isn't another mindset tactic. It's the root-level identity work that makes every other tool finally work again.Micro Recalibration:“Where can I practice peace in motion today?”Maybe it's pausing before you reply. Maybe it's doing the same work—but from a grounded breath instead of a hurried one. You don't need to clear your calendar to recalibrate—just your posture.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 built your success—but it's costing your peace. In this episode, Julie Holly reveals how to move from burnout to overflow by aligning excellence with identity. Because when peace becomes your power source, excellence becomes effortless.What happens when the drive that once made you unstoppable starts quietly wearing you down?In this final episode of Week One, From High Performance to High Capacity, Julie Holly unpacks the inner shift that turns relentless drive into sustainable excellence. You'll learn why even the strongest leaders experience burnout, decision fatigue, and role confusion—and how identity-level misalignment, not ambition itself, is the real cause.Drawing on insights from Episodes 152 and 165, Julie shows how the nervous system mirrors your internal story: constant output keeps you in survival mode, while recalibration restores your natural rhythm of work and rest, performance and presence.This is not another productivity tactic or mindset hack. It's Identity-Level Recalibration—the root-level alignment that makes every other tool effective. When excellence flows from identity instead of adrenaline, peace and progress can finally coexist.Through story work, nervous system insight, and practical reflection, you'll see how to step out of the exhaustion loop—without losing your edge. Because the goal isn't to do less; it's to do what's yours, from who you truly are.Today's Micro Recalibration:“Where can I let alignment lead my excellence this week?”Take this question into your weekend. Let it guide your leadership, your decisions, and your pace—so excellence stops draining you and starts defining you.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

After dropping out of university Adam started his first digital marketing business from his mother's hallway aged just 21 and soon went on to found Captify Technologies, a global marketing technology company. Over 10 years, he scaled it to 300 staff across 13 markets and drove revenues to over $60m per year before successfully exiting the business in July 202Along the way, the relentless pressure of building a global company began to take a toll on his health — a moment that sparked deep self-reflection.

High performers often chase peace but feel unsafe when they slow down. In this episode, Julie Holly reveals how early stories of worth and success shape our drive—and how recalibration helps you rewrite them so rest finally feels safe again.If you've ever tried to rest but felt restless instead—this episode is for you.In The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks the psychology and identity behind high performance, revealing how our earliest stories quietly shape the pace we keep as adults. From the family messages of “Be the best” and “Don't fail,” to the cultural scripts that say worth equals output, this episode exposes the deeper narratives driving exhaustion.You'll learn how story work bridges behavior and belief—and why adding more habits or hacks won't heal the root cause of burnout or performance pressure. Drawing on psychological insight and nervous system science, Julie explains how these unconscious stories become embodied patterns: you produce to stay safe, prove to stay seen, and protect to stay in control.Through Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR)—the psychology-backed, faith-rooted pathway that realigns identity at the root—you'll discover how to retrain your body to experience stillness as safety. Because when your nervous system believes you're safe to rest, peace stops feeling like loss and starts feeling like trust.This episode invites you to grieve your old story, thank it for keeping you safe, and finally meet the truer version of you beneath it all.The Recalibration isn't therapy or mindset work—it's the smallest internal shift that changes everything. It's not about doing less; it's about leading from who you truly are.Today's Micro Recalibration:“What story am I still performing—and is it still true?” Let this question soften the part of you that's still performing for safety. The story that got you here doesn't have to be the one that carries you forward.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Are you struggling with anxiety, sleeplessness, and low libido in perimenopause—even after starting hormone therapy? You're doing everything right, but still feel wired, exhausted, and disconnected from pleasure. The missing piece might surprise you: it's your nervous system.In this episode of Pleasure in the Pause, host Gabriela Espinosa reveals why balancing hormones alone isn't enough. Groundbreaking research from UC San Francisco shows that your nervous system is literally woven into your ovaries, directly influencing how you age, how you experience menopause symptoms, and how much pleasure you can access in your body. If you've felt like your body is betraying you in midlife, this conversation will change how you understand stress, hormones, and intimacy forever.Are you ready to awaken your sensuality and feel more empowered in your body? Access the FREE Pleasure Upgrade Bundle at https://www.pleasureinthepause.com/gift.Highlights from our discussion include:Your nervous system and hormones are in constant conversation. Declining estrogen makes your nervous system more reactive to stress, which is why you suddenly feel more anxious and on edge in perimenopause—it's biology, not "in your head."New research reveals your stress response is wired into your ovaries. Scientists at UC San Francisco discovered that sympathetic nerves (fight-or-flight) form dense networks in your ovaries and directly influence how they age. Chronic stress doesn't just affect your mood—it affects your ovarian health and longevity.Pleasure requires nervous system safety. When you're stuck in fight, flight, or freeze, your body can't access pleasure or intimacy. You need to feel safe in your body first before you can experience arousal, desire, and deep connection.You need both calm AND charge. The goal isn't to always be relaxed—you need sympathetic energy for desire and aliveness, and parasympathetic energy for rest and connection. True nervous system health is flexibility: moving fluidly between states.Simple practices make a profound difference. Grounding exercises like feeling your feet on the floor, humming to stimulate your vagus nerve, taking micro-pauses throughout the day, and naming your nervous system state can help you shift from survival mode to safety and pleasure.Your nervous system isn't something to fix or control—it's something to befriend and partner with. It's your body's way of speaking to you, telling you when you need rest, movement, connection, or pleasure. This week, practice one simple tool: when you feel overwhelmed, pause and feel your feet on the ground. Notice the contact. Take three deep breaths. This small act tells your nervous system you're safe—and that's where healing and pleasure begin.CONNECT WITH GABRIELLA ESPINOSA:InstagramLinkedInWork with Gabriella! Go to https://www.gabriellaespinosa.com/ to book a call.Full episodes on YouTube.

In this week's episode of Sacred Healing & Enchantment, I'm getting real about boundaries, triggers, and repair—and the difference between what's actually harmful and what's simply uncomfortable.Not everything that activates you is toxic—sometimes it's an invitation to grow capacity.I share personal stories and how I've seen clients misuse boundaries in the past, how to recognize when we're setting them from self-responsibility versus avoidance, and why true healing happens through repair, not disconnection.You'll also learn how to work with your nervous system and shadow to expand your ability to hold discomfort, communicate cleanly, and return to alignment when conflict arises.Tune in for a conversation that will help you cultivate deeper self-awareness, embodied leadership, and relationships that can weather the messy moments and come into alignment stronger.00:00 Introduction to Sacred Healing and Enchantment00:49 Exploring Boundaries and Triggers05:03 Understanding Toxicity vs. Discomfort07:49 The Importance of Repair in Relationships13:12 Nervous System Regulation and Emotional Authenticity22:26 Inviting Discomfort and Shadow Work26:22 Conclusion and OfferingsRESOURCES:The Guided Rituals Membership: https://live.theselflovelifestyle.com/ritualsThe Sacred Method Practitioner Training: https://live.theselflovelifestyle.com/sacredmethodAll other offerings: https://www.melaniemonaco.comMessage Melanie on Instagram:⁠@melanierosemonaco⁠Email Melanie: melanie@melaniemonaco.com

Send us a textIn this episode of The So Be It Podcast, Dr Amen Kaur explores how modern women can build confidence without burnout through nervous-system science and self-mastery.What if the exhaustion you're carrying isn't burnout, but biology doing its best to keep you safe? We trace how history shaped a survival reflex that ties safety to approval and why that reflex still shows up as people pleasing, perfectionism, and self-silencing in high-stakes rooms. Drawing from epigenetics, neuroception, and practical nervous system science, we break down what happens when the amygdala takes over, why language disappears at the moment you most need it, and how to turn awareness into lasting change without white-knuckling your way through.Together, we unpack the difference between hustle-fueled productivity and presence-driven progress. You'll learn how to spot survival strategies masquerading as strengths, and how to replace them with regulated action...small, calm steps that compound into confidence and self-trust. We walk through breath cues that re-engage the prefrontal cortex, reframes for fear that honor your body's intent, and practical micro-asks that train your system to associate visibility with safety rather than threat.This is confidence as chemistry, not performance; courage as capacity, not posturing.If you're ready to stop outsourcing safety to approval or overwork, this conversation offers clear tools and compassionate language to help you lead from presence. Expect grounded strategies for asking for the raise, naming your contribution, and holding boundaries without guilt - plus a simple framework for turning awareness into action.Subscribe, share this with someone who needs it, and leave a review with the one small, safe step you'll take today.

Why does the simple act of smelling essential oils directly regulate the nervous system during trauma and grief? How can practitioners support clients who struggle with feeling their bodies? What if smell is the most underutilized tool for creating safety and embodiment? Seven years ago, Jodi Cohen's 12-year-old son died suddenly in a car accident. Her 14-year-old daughter, about to start high school, needed her mother to stay present through the unimaginable. This episode shares Jodi's journey of daily choosing what helps and what hurts, discovering that smell became her most accessible pathway to nervous system regulation when everything else felt too overwhelming. You'll learn the science of why our sense of smell is our most direct connection to the limbic system, how rose essential oil counteracts the fear response in the brain, and why smell allows us to titrate our emotional experience in micro-moments rather than getting flooded. This episode bridges functional medicine and somatic trauma healing for both practitioners and individuals navigating grief, chronic pain, or trauma recovery. Whether you're supporting clients through loss or learning to regulate your own nervous system, you'll discover how to use essential oils as deliberate cues of safety that shift your state without anyone noticing. In this episode you'll learn: [00:01:28] Jodi's Story of Loss: How her son's death became a daily practice of choosing what helps and what hurts while parenting through grief [00:03:08] Why Smell is Critical to Survival: The science of olfactory receptors and how rose essential oil counteracts the brain's fear response [00:05:27] Stories Follow State: Why shifting your nervous system state automatically changes your thoughts without working on the stories [00:07:04] Parasympathetic Blend Behind the Ear: How applying essential oils on the vagus nerve regulates sympathetic dominance during overwhelming moments [00:09:11] Flooding Shuts Down Problem-Solving: Why you must regulate your nervous system before you can think clearly or make decisions [00:12:36] When Bedtime Brings Up Everything: How stillness at night surfaces all the grief and feelings we've avoided all day [00:14:24] Creating Neutral Space for Dorsal Vagal: Recognizing shutdown and using oils to observe feelings without reliving trauma [00:21:05] Titrating with Smell: Using essential oils for micro-moments of feeling followed by safe action to build capacity without flooding [00:24:37] Fascia, Lymph, and Nervous System Integration: Why addressing all three systems together creates coherence and lasting regulation [00:27:16] Where to Apply Essential Oils: Finding the divot behind the ear, belly button, and feet for maximum nervous system regulation Main Takeaways: Smell is Our Most Powerful Survival Sense: Of the five senses, smell connects most directly to the limbic system because it alerts us to food, water, predator odor, and fire—making it the most critical sense for survival and the most underutilized tool for nervous system regulation. Rose Essential Oil Counteracts Fear Biology: Research on olfactory receptors shows that rose essential oil directly counteracts the fear response triggered by predator odor in the brain, making it a powerful tool for trauma healing and embodiment. Your Stories Follow Your State: Thoughts and narratives automatically shift with your nervous system state—when you're in calm aliveness you notice beauty, in stress you spiral with worry, in shutdown everything feels hopeless. Shifting state is often easier than changing thoughts. Smell Creates Space Between Stimulus and Response: Essential oils provide the easiest accessible tool to create that critical pause between what happens and how we react, allowing us to move from automatic survival responses to conscious choice. Titration Makes Healing Sustainable: Using smell to titrate emotional experience—feeling for 30 seconds, then shifting attention—builds capacity to stay present with difficult feelings without getting flooded or retraumatized. Go Slowly When Activating Parasympathetic: People who've been sympathetic dominant for years will start detoxifying when they finally feel safe. Start with just smelling oils before topical application to prevent overwhelming the lymphatic system. Fascia, Lymph, and Nervous System Work Together: These three systems are woven together like a marriage—the vagus nerve is the masculine aspect, fascia is the feminine, and when both are in harmony the body moves into coherence. Grief Requires Daily Practice: Healing from trauma and loss isn't about being fixed or finding one solution—it's making a daily choice to lean into tools that work, even when you don't feel like it. Coherence Creates Lasting Change: When you align the nervous system, fascial network, lymphatic system, heart coherence, and limbic system together, you create deadbolts on the door of safety rather than just one lock. Notable Quotes: "When you're flooded, it turns off your access to your prefrontal cortex, which is kind of your problem solving skill. And so you need to regulate your nervous system so that you can problem solve." "It's not like I am fixed or I found this thing. It's that every day I live with chronic pain, I live with hard things, and every day I make a choice to deal with it." "The nervous system, lymphatic system and the fascial network are all woven together. The fascia is kind of the feminine aspect of the nervous system and the vagus nerve is the masculine, and I think they're married and they work together." Episode Takeaway: The healing journey from grief and trauma don't require you to be fixed—they require daily practice of choosing tools that work even when you don't feel like using them. Jodi's journey through the loss of her 12-year-old son reveals why smell became her most accessible pathway to nervous system regulation: essential oils create that critical space between stimulus and response because olfactory receptors connect directly to the limbic system, allowing us to titrate emotional experience in micro-moments, shift our state (which automatically shifts our stories), and regulate before our prefrontal cortex shuts down from flooding.

Here's the thing, babe...The way you see yourself is exactly how others see you.

AND the way you see yourself with money? That's exactly how money sees you. So if your nervous system still equates more money with more responsibility or pressure...you'll unconsciously push away the overflow you say you want. We're clearing those hidden rules, recoding your self-image, and anchoring you into the energy of the woman who holds both visibility and wealth with ease.

The Intensity is Real, But Your Power is Greater.Acknowledge the current intense environment (mentally, emotionally, globally).Reintroduce the core belief: When you are soul-centered, you are more powerful than anything.The problem: We absorb "heavier energies" without realizing it.The Core Practice: 5-to-10 Conscious Cycles.Break down the simple, powerful formula (5-10 breaths).Affirmation Focus: Dedicate each in-breath to calm and centering ("Breathing in, I calm my body, mind, and emotions.") and each out-breath to release ("Breathing out, I release all heavier energies and attachments...").The Command: Lock in the shielding and safety ("I am centered. I am safe. I am surrounded and infused with divine light and shielding.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Kasia Bukowska—an equine therapist, artist, and mindset mentor—about how horses act as living mirrors for our emotions. Kasia shares her journey from a lupus diagnosis and doctors saying she'd never ride again to regulating her nervous system, rebuilding identity, and teaching connection-first horsemanship. We cover equine-assisted healing, reading energy over “technique,” creating psychological safety with animals, and practical ways non-riders can cultivate grounded presence.   About the guest   Kasia Bukowska is an internationally recognized equine therapist, artist, and mindset mentor. Featured in Sidelines, Horse Illustrated, and on the cover of Barefoot Horse, she blends energy work, emotional awareness, and creative expression to help people release blocks, regulate their nervous systems, and reconnect with authentic self-trust—partnering with horses as teachers.   Key takeaways: Horses mirror our internal state; they respond to our truth, not our masks, making them powerful partners for nervous system regulation and trauma healing. Connection and energetic safety outperform rigid “technique.” When pressure and performance drop, curiosity and learning rise—for both human and horse. A slower equine heart rate and calm presence entrain us toward steadier breath and body; co-regulation creates conditions for change. Identity work is central: Kasia's healing moved from “riding again” to valuing herself beyond achievement, borrowing her horses' unconditional regard as a bridge to self-worth. Practical start for non-riders: observe animals (even pets) without agenda; notice emotional reactions, breathe, and let insight arise. Presence > control. With dysregulated horses (or people), build safety first: create a protected space, invite play and novelty (e.g., props), reward curiosity, and allow movement to discharge energy. Progress collapses when expectations harden; staying playful, flexible, and patient maintains trust and results. Feeling “stuck” isn't failure—it's a precursor to clarity. Fully feeling emotions can open space for creative solutions and next steps.   How to connect with the guest  : Social: equestriankasiabukowska on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook Art: https://kasiabukowska.com/ Equine work: https://www.hearthorseexperience.com/    If you're in immediate crisis, contact local emergency services or your regional suicide prevention helpline.   Here are reliable, widely used crisis lines by region:   United States  :     988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988, or chat at 988lifeline.org (24/7).

Burnout recovery isn't just about rest — it's about recalibration. This episode reveals how chronic appeasement and role fatigue drain your peace, and how to rebuild identity-based boundaries that restore real alignment from the inside out.If you feel constantly drained — no matter how much you rest — you're not broken. You're just leaking peace.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores the real reason burnout and decision fatigue linger: not overwork, but identity leaks — the subtle ways high-capacity humans trade authenticity for approval.From a psychology perspective, Julie unpacks how fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses shape our nervous system patterns, and why chronic appeasement isn't humility — it's dysregulation. Drawing from Polyvagal Theory and the wisdom of philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, she explains how “the most common despair is to not be oneself” — and how that despair quietly erodes leadership, peace, and confidence.Through the story of Katharine Graham of The Washington Post, you'll see how alignment becomes courage in motion — how defining boundaries transforms fear of loss into integrity and influence.You'll also learn how to spot when you're performing peace instead of living it, and how to rebuild identity-first boundaries that protect presence without hardening your heart.Because peace isn't passive — it's protected. And every time you honor your truth instead of managing perception, you teach your nervous system that safety and authenticity can coexist.Today's Micro Recalibration — “The Leak Audit” Create three columns: Role. Relationship. Rhythm. Ask in each: “Where am I leaking peace?” Then write one clear boundary for each — a single sentence that honors who you've become. Peace doesn't grow through permission. It grows through protection.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 episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Rachel Lundberg, a movement educator, chronic illness survivor, and founder of Yoga Oak University. Rachel shares her transformative journey from ballet and modern dance to creating a global yoga education platform. Together, they explore how mindful movement, breathwork, and alignment-based yoga can regulate the nervous system, release emotional tension, and support holistic well-being. Whether you are new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, Rachel offers practical insights into using movement as a tool for emotional, mental, and spiritual growth. Learn how simple breath practices and conscious movement can unlock deep healing and reconnect you with your authentic self. About the Guest:Rachel Lundberg is a movement educator and founder of Yoga Oak University. A chronic illness survivor and truth-seeker, Rachel combines anatomy, neuroscience, and spirituality in her alignment-based yoga specialist certification programs. She is dedicated to helping individuals and healthcare providers harness the power of mindful movement for emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Key Takeaways: Movement is more than physical exercise; it is a tool for emotional and spiritual processing. Breath regulates the nervous system: inhalation activates sympathetic (fight or flight) responses; exhalation engages parasympathetic (rest and reset) responses. Simple daily practices, like conscious breath and mindful movement, can down-regulate stress and anxiety. Awareness of the body's state—activated, frozen, or depressed—guides personalized practices for healing. Sensory engagement (touch, sound, sight) can help shift energy and increase presence in the moment. Regulation doesn't require advanced yoga; even one mindful movement or one conscious breath can initiate healing. The ABC technique (Acknowledge, Breathe, Connect) helps identify bodily sensations and guide nervous system regulation.

We're not broken—we're just overwhelmed. Kylie Larson and I explore how to quiet the noise, feel safe in your body, and start leading with acceptance instead of control. In this episode, Kylie Larson and I unpack the difference between what you think you need and what you actually need when it comes to health, wellness, and feeling like yourself again. We talk about the endless noise out there—how easy it is to chase the next fix—and why the real work often looks less like control and more like compassion.

Let's be honest—sometimes your brain just hits a wall and screams, “F this.” But what if that reaction isn't wrong? What if it's just feedback?

Today we're diving into confident communication. Kathryn Woods—a Communication Trainer and Speaking Coach with over twenty years of experience as a Speech-Language Pathologist—is here today to teach us not only public speaking tips but how to be a better communicator, how to handle a high conflict situation, and how to be confident. Kathryn shares her journey from painfully shy child to confident communicator, revealing how our nervous system, posture, and breath affect not only how we sound — but how we feel when we speak.Together they explore:

Burnout recovery starts with slowing down. In this episode, Julie Holly reveals why stillness isn't weakness — it's strategy. Through Identity-Level Recalibration, learn to rest without fear, trust divine timing, and let peace lead your progress.For many high-capacity humans, rest feels like a threat. After years of achievement, the moment things quiet down, the mind panics — “Am I falling behind?” In this powerful episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores the truth that burnout recovery and lasting clarity come not from speed, but from stillness.Drawing from the incubation effect — the neuroscience principle that insight surfaces when the mind rests — Julie explains why your brain can't access creativity when your nervous system is in survival mode. Through Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR), she shows how to rewire your biology to interpret rest as safety, not failure.You'll also hear from music producer Rick Rubin, whose creative genius is rooted in radical stillness and subtraction. His process illustrates a vital truth: You don't need to add more to become more — you need to become true.Whether you're navigating burnout recovery, decision fatigue, or spiritual exhaustion, this episode offers an identity-rooted invitation to step off the hamster wheel of performance and into peace that produces clarity.Julie weaves together neuroscience, psychology, and faith — reminding you that stillness isn't stagnation; it's sacred strategy. Because when your identity is anchored in who you are, not what you do, you stop striving for momentum and start living from peace.Micro Recalibration: 

Why perfectionism slows progress, what's really happening in your brain and body, and how to break the loop — on and off your mountain bike. In this episode, I dive into one of the biggest hidden blockers in adult MTB learning: perfectionism. If you've ever caught yourself thinking, “I should be better by now,” or you get frustrated when a skill doesn't click instantly — this episode is for you. We'll explore why perfectionism isn't just about “high standards” but a protective mechanism of your brain, what happens physiologically when you tense up and over-focus on mistakes, and — most importantly — how to shift out of that loop and back into learning flow. You'll walk away with concrete, science-backed tools to calm your nervous system, rewire your brain for real progress, and finally enjoy the process — instead of chasing “perfect.”

In this episode, I open up about the art of trusting life, even when the unknown feels overwhelming. I explore how our bodies are living temples and how breath, sound, and presence can reconnect us to the subtle realms of spirit without needing substances. I reflect on moments of inspiration beyond the veil, the reality of duality, and why those micro-moments of choosing faith over fear shape the way we move through the world.I also share a very human season of dismantling—leaving a relationship, a country, and an academy—and how surrender, prayer, and daily self-holding carried me through. We look at the danger of spiritual bypassing and why authentic tantra starts from the ground up: feeling what's real, integrating it in the body, and only then rising into trust. This is about meeting life honestly and letting wisdom grow from the roots.Along the way, I offer the practices that keep me steady and clear: meditation, emotional release, gratitude, mindset hygiene, and creating spaciousness so spirit can move through. My hope is that you feel invited to remember the grand, organized design we're part of—and to co-create a life that feels aligned, awake, and deeply human.[b]Chapters[/b]0:00 - Tantric Life Lessons for Awakening the Soul2:00 - The Sweetness of Letting Go of Resistance9:21 - Creating Spaciousness for Trust and Surrender

You don't have a willpower problem. You have a nervous system problem. In this episode, I'm breaking down the eight principles of self-directed neuroplasticity—how to actually rewire your brain so drinking less stops being a battle and starts becoming automatic. Here's what most people don't understand: You can't change your drinking habits while you're operating in overwhelm. Your brain literally doesn't have access to the circuits required for behavior change when you're in survival mode. Which is why all the rules, commitments, and white-knuckling haven't worked. You've been trying to force change from a state that makes change neurologically impossible. In this episode, you'll learn: Why alcohol use disorder is a stress response pattern, not a character flaw The 5 steps of the stress response (and why recognizing The Wall changes everything) Why shame makes change impossible—and what to do instead The 8 principles that make lasting brain change possible Why short, gentle daily somatic practices work better than dramatic or intense lifestyle changes How to build new habits without fighting the old ones This isn't fluffy self-help. This is neuroscience. And once you understand how your brain actually works, you stop blaming yourself and start solving the real problem. Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL if you're ready to fully commit to your personal growth and do the work to get emotionally sober. Side effects include an 80 percent reduction in drinking.

Have you ever met someone who just gets under your skin — a person whose confidence, voice, or behavior irritates you and you can't quite figure out why? In today's episode of The Couragecast, we're diving deep into the mirror effect — how the people who frustrate us most are often our greatest teachers.

If you're ready to stop projecting, start reflecting, and take radical responsibility for your emotions and energy, this episode will help you shift from irritation to empowerment. You'll learn how to: Recognize when someone is mirroring a part of yourself Move from judgment into compassion Take radical responsibility without shame or blame Cultivate emotional safety and show up grounded Turn triggers into powerful opportunities for healing and growth Whether it's a family member, client, or coach online — this episode will help you see every relationship as an invitation to return home to yourself. https://www.andreacrisp.ca/coachingReady to take radical responsibility and move through life with more ease and self-trust?

Send us a textThe hardest truth we learned in recovery wasn't about alcohol—it was about control. For years we tried to push, persuade, and rescue our way into peace, only to end up exhausted and resentful. Then two small words flipped everything: let them. Let them choose. Let them stay. Let them go. Let them misunderstand. And let us choose our peace, our boundaries, and our focus.We explore how the “Let Them” Theory reframes love, leadership, and sobriety without sliding into passivity. Control looks like care, but it's fear wearing a friendly mask. We share real stories of trying to fix partners, employees, and friends, and how accepting people's agency made room for real connection—and for those who are actually aligned to step in. You'll hear why love without boundaries becomes chaos, how rescuing steals growth, and why allowing people to be wrong about you is a fast track to freedom. We also unpack the surprising link between addiction and control, and why quiet consistency becomes more influential than any speech.If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's choices—or felt triggered when they ignore your advice—take our practical tool with you: the Five Whys. Keep asking why until you move from blame to root-cause truth. Paired with surrender and spiritual trust, this shift calms your nervous system, clarifies what's yours to carry, and helps you stop arguing with reality. Let them live their story while you live yours—with integrity, compassion, and clear boundaries.If this resonated, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs lighter shoulders and clearer lines.

Your doctor just became your worst enemy. When the medical establishment brands chronic dizziness conditions like PPPD, MDDS, and vestibular migraines as "incurable," they're not just wrong, they're actively destroying lives through calculated ignorance. Dr. Yonit Arthur, a board-certified audiologist with a doctorate from Purdue University, drops a bombshell: patients experiencing 24/7 sensory collapse, paralyzing terror, and complete disorientation aren't suffering from permanent damage. They're trapped in a fear loop that doctors reinforce with every "learn to manage it" prescription. After watching the medical system fail hundreds of desperate patients who've seen 20, 30, even 40 specialists, Dr. Arthur launched The Steady Coach a popular YouTube channel with free courses to expose an uncomfortable truth. These "chronic" conditions persist because patients have been programmed to believe they're broken.

Join Kash and I live to go deeper on this conversation http://midlifeconversations.com/breathe  Could your "bad genetics" for cholesterol actually be a survival advantage you're just using wrong (and actually making everything worse)?  In this conversation we're diving deep into the connections between hormone detoxification, cholesterol, anxiety, and why your body might feel like it's working against you - plus the surprising solution that's helping women address all of it simultaneously. Health detective guru Kashif Khan returns to help unravel the mysteries behind stubborn weight, high cholesterol despite clean eating, chronic inflammation, and that constant fight-or-flight feeling that won't turn off no matter what you try. If you've been told you have poor detox pathways and it's made hormone replacement therapy feel scary, this episode provides clarity you won't find anywhere else. We explore why your body produces hormones based on what your ancestors did (not what you actually do), how modern toxins create a perfect storm of hormone disruption, and why the conventional approach to cholesterol might be missing the entire point. You'll discover why nervous system regulation must come first before any other intervention can truly work, and learn about molecular hydrogen therapy - a breakthrough approach that addresses toxic burden, cellular energy, and inflammation all at once. Tune in to learn about the profound impacts of hydrogen on detoxification, cellular energy, and overall wellness, and get answers to pressing health questions you've been asking. Whether you're dealing with weight resistance, sleep issues, anxiety, or just want to optimize your midlife health, this conversation provides the missing pieces.   Catch the full episode on YOUTUBE HERE: https://bit.ly/MidlifeConversationsYouTube    Learn More About Kashif Khan:    Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/kashkhanofficial  Website ➜ http://midlifeconversations.com/breathe   Thank you to our show sponsors!

Summary Are your symptoms really coming from a “broken body”—or are they actually a brain habit? In this episode, Ali breaks down the science of neuroplastic symptoms (sometimes called TMS or mind-body symptoms) and explains why real, physical sensations like pain, fatigue, gut issues, and dizziness can persist even without structural damage. You'll learn how the brain's danger pathways work, why symptoms become a habit, and how fear and avoidance keep the cycle alive. Drawing on Alan Gordon's “false alarm” framework, Ali shares simple, practical ways to rewire your brain's response—so symptoms lose their power and your nervous system learns safety again. If you've been stuck in the endless cycle of symptoms, worry, and searching for answers, this episode will give you clarity, hope, and a roadmap for healing.   Takeaways Neuroplastic symptoms are real—but they're created by the brain's danger pathways, not by structural damage. Fear and attention fuel the cycle: every time you monitor or worry, the brain reinforces the symptom as “important.” Symptoms become a habit loop—just like a song stuck in your head, the brain gets good at producing them through repetition. Alan Gordon's false alarm analogy helps explain why symptoms are real but not dangerous—the alarm is sounding, but there's no fire. Healing is possible: by reducing fear, processing emotions, and re-engaging in life, you can rewire your brain and teach it safety.   Ali's Resources:  Calm the Chaos: Practical Tips and Tools for Stopping Anxiety in It's Tracks Course!
