Have you ever noticed that the things quietly wearing you down aren’t the big crises—but the tiny, constant ones?

The ones that slip through your calendar, your habits, your pace?

In this episode, we’re unpacking seven small but powerful habits that keep your nervous system stuck in quiet survival mode—and what to do instead. Because it’s not always the obvious stressors that lead to burnout; it’s the micro-stressors you’ve normalized.

You’ll learn:

• ✔️ How habits like overthinking, rushing, and suppressing emotion subtly dysregulate your body
• ✔️ Why overstimulation, caffeine-wine loops, and ignoring your body’s cues keep you running on fumes
• ✔️ The neuroscience behind micro-stress and the cumulative toll it takes on your system
• ✔️ Seven practical, body-based shifts to bring your nervous system back into calm and safety

💡 True healing doesn’t always come from the big breakthroughs. It often starts in the quiet, everyday moments—the way you breathe between meetings, the way you move through your mornings, the way you listen to your body’s cues.

This episode will help you identify where stress hides, and how to start reclaiming your peace—one gentle, grounded habit at a time.

Do you ever feel like you’re holding it all together on the outside—but underneath, you’re simmering?

You’re not losing your mind. You’re likely holding unprocessed anger.

In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most misunderstood emotions—especially for women: anger.

For years, I didn’t even realize I was angry. I told myself I was “fine,” “chill,” “rational.” But under all that composure was a nervous system running on tension and suppressed emotion.

And here’s the truth: when anger isn’t processed, it doesn’t disappear—it just leaks out as resentment, irritability, control, or passive aggression.

You’ll learn:
✔️ The neuroscience of anger—what’s happening in your brain and body when you suppress versus express it
✔️ How unprocessed anger quietly drains your energy, shrinks your window of tolerance, and impacts your relationships
✔️ The four ways suppressed anger most commonly shows up (and how to spot them)
✔️ Practical, body-based ways to process and release anger safely—from movement and sound to prayer and breathwork

💡 Anger isn’t a flaw. It’s a signal from your body that something needs attention. When you learn how to work with it instead of against it, you reclaim energy, peace, and presence—not just for yourself, but for everyone around you.

If you’ve ever wondered why you over-give to keep the peace, shut down to stay “strong,” or feel that push-pull of wanting closeness but fearing it—your attachment style is likely running the show behind the scenes.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jessica Baum, therapist and author of Anxiously Attached and Safe.

We break down attachment theory in real, everyday terms—how early experiences shape the way you love, what “secure” actually feels like in your body, and how to move from survival patterns to safe, connected relationships.

We’re diving into:

• ✔️ The 4 attachment patterns (secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganized)—and why most of us are blends depending on the person and season
• ✔️ How anxious people-pleasing/self-abandonment and avoidant “I’m fine” independence form—and practical steps to heal (interoception, anchoring relationships, and rupture & repair)
• ✔️ Raising (and re-raising) secure: what kids need now, why it’s never too late to repair, and the role of friendship/community in feeling safe

If you’re ready to stop waiting for the other shoe to drop and start feeling secure from the inside out—this conversation is for you.

🎧 Press play to learn how to identify your patterns, rewire toward safety, and build relationships that actually feel good to your nervous system.
