Welcome back to The Elevated Edit, where we don’t just talk strategy—we talk sustainability. If you’ve ever felt like you were doing all the things but still couldn’t find your flow, this episode is the reset your nervous system didn’t know it needed.

I’m sharing the exact moment I realized I was sabotaging my own success—not because I lacked discipline, but because my body didn’t feel safe. From high-stress real estate calls on vacation to the pressure of being “on” 24/7, this is the behind-the-scenes truth about why regulation isn’t just for meditation retreats—it’s your most powerful business tool.

In this episode:

• The real reason that one text sent you into a spiral
• Fight, flight, freeze, and fawn—decoded for modern entrepreneurs
• How your “personality quirks” might actually be nervous system responses
• A 3-question self-check that will change how you operate this week
• Why regulating your nervous system will be your #1 business flex in the AI era

Power Move:

Start asking: Does my body feel safe succeeding? Because if it doesn’t… it will fight you every step of the way.

If you end your workday still thinking about what you didn’t finish—and wake up already overwhelmed by what you forgot—you’re not inconsistent. You’re just mentally overloaded.

In this episode of The Elevated Edit™, Blaklee dives into the psychology and physiology of incomplete loops, cognitive residue, and the real reason your business feels heavier than it should. Drawing from the Zeigarnik Effect (with a side of waiter nostalgia), she breaks down why your shutdown routine isn’t a cute productivity tip—it’s a business growth necessity.

You’ll walk away from this episode with both a wake-up call and a solution. Because you don’t need more motivation. You need a system that tells your brain: we’re done for today.

What’s inside:

• How your brain subconsciously keeps “orders” open like an unpaid tab
• Why most productivity advice fails (hint: it starts in the wrong place)
• What scattered systems and procrastination are really trying to tell you
• How incomplete loops keep your nervous system in fight-or-flight
• The science behind creativity blocks and burnout—and how to fix it
• A behind-the-scenes look at Hot Girl Shutdown™, Blaklee’s 2-week ritual reset designed to help you log off like a legend
