In this episode I'm excited to introduce you to Dr. Nicole Cain. She is a naturopathic doctor and author of a book called "Panic Proof: The New Holistic Solution to End Your Anxiety Forever", which is helping people understand anxiety and panic and emotional wellness, with tools available beyond what people might be hearing in standard mental health clinics. Dr. Nicole shares what drew her into this work. She talks about hitting her rock bottom moment, which so many people experience. It's that fork in the road where someone asks themselves if this is their story or if it's going to be something different. Her rock bottom moment involved continual trauma and panic and anxiety that was so somatically based in her body. It was like burning in her chest, restlessness, and involuntary muscle spasms in her arms. She wasn't sleeping, lost so much weight, and stopped having her period. She had to decide if this was her story or if it was going to be something different. Thank goodness she was able to find her way through that and discovered some really helpful tools and techniques. She got excited to share that with her patients, and they started getting better results. She started sharing it with her community, working with other counselors and doctors, and they started getting better results too. Then she started to look at the research, and it was supporting these discoveries. Now she's helping people who have tried everything to address anxiety and they are feeling hopeless. She wants people to know there is hope. There are great helpers out there to support people and provide resources. We're here to help you!

Panic doesn't mean you're broken. It means your body is sending a message you haven't yet learned to translate.In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Nicole Cain, a licensed naturopathic physician and integrative mental-health expert, to explore how panic, anxiety, and chronic stress are not enemies to fight but signals guiding us toward healing. Nicole shares her story of collapsing under the weight of perfectionism and control, and how rebuilding from rock bottom led her to write Panic Proof, a book that reframes anxiety as data, not dysfunction.Nicole also unpacks her red-yellow-green light system for emotional awareness, the nine distinct types of anxiety, and the powerful role of the body in memory, trauma, and recovery. You'll hear how EMDR and somatic reprogramming can literally rewire fear, how curiosity becomes the antidote to panic, and why removing the “obstacles to cure” might be the most overlooked key to long-term health."Our symptoms are data about what needs healing. Our symptoms are stuck adaptations to what did happen to you and what didn't happen to you." - Dr. Nicole CainSupport the show and get 50% off MCT oil with free shipping—just leave us a review on iTunes and let us know!https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/live-beyond-the-norms/id1714886566 Mentioned In This Episode:- Panic Proof Book: https://www.panicproof.com/book - Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/holistic-inner-balance-natural-mental-health-podcast/id1506869161 About Dr. Nicole Cain:Dr. Nicole Cain is an integrative mental-health doctor, author, and educator specializing in trauma-informed care and holistic treatment for anxiety, panic, bipolar disorder, and depression.

We've been told stress will kill us. That we need to yoga-breathe it away, book a retreat, or stuff it down with a pint of Ben & Jerry's (using your car key as a spoon… iykyk). But what if stress isn't the villain? What if it's actually the fuel for our best work? This week, we're joined by Dr. Rebecca Heiss — a stress physiologist, researcher, keynote speaker, and author of Springboard: Transform Stress to Work for You. She's also the creator of the Fearless Stress Formula and has been recognized by the National Science Foundation for her groundbreaking research. Her mission? To help us stop fearing fear, stop fighting stress, and instead transform both into fuel for growth, performance, and purpose. Rebecca brings her science background together with real talk and humor, making the hard stuff (like stress) not only make sense but feel doable. She's passionate about helping women shift out of survival mode and into a place of clarity, confidence, and community. Together, we dive into why stress isn't something to eliminate but energy we can reframe, channel, and actually use to show up stronger. We explore: Why your “effortless, overwhelmed” game isn't working The three steps to stop fighting stress and start using it How to “invite the tiger to tea” (yes, really) Why service and community are the real antidote to overwhelm The competitive advantage women have when it comes to stress Because friend, stress isn't proof you're broken. It's proof you care. And when you learn to use it, it becomes your edge.
