Summary

Are you feeling overstimulated, on edge, or like you're barely holding on? You're not alone. In this episode, I dive into the cost of always being “on” and how to log off, reset, and reconnect with yourself. From the constant stream of bad news to the pressure of productivity, our nervous systems are overloaded. But what if the way back isn't through thinking—but feeling? I’ll share personal stories, practical ways to rebuild trust in your body, and small shifts to help you get back online with yourself. No pressure, no perfection—just an invitation to listen to what your body has been trying to tell you. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
