My guest, Emma Ferris, had all the tools. She was literally a nervous system coach. And she still handed over six figures to a man she loved who turned out to be a convicted con artist.

Her body was sending signals the whole time, but her brain had very convincing reasons to keep going anyway.

If you've ever looked back at a relationship and thought "I felt it and I still didn't stop," this conversation is going to land somewhere important. Dating after 40 with an unregulated nervous system is like trying to navigate with a compass that's been magnetised by every heartbreak you've ever had. Emma helps you reset it.

About Emma Ferris: Emma is a physiotherapist, nervous system coach, author, and speaker, and the founder of The Breath Effect. She works with women whose bodies have been asked to hold too much for too long, helping them rebuild their signal so they can hear themselves again.
