Welcome to the Calm Mom podcast, the show for ambitious women ready to get off the Hot Mess Express.

I know you've got a lot going on. You work so hard. You're raising an incredible family.

And sometimes it can be overwhelming. I'm your host, Michelle Grocer. I'm a certified master life coach, attorney,

wife, and mom. And years ago, I was right where you are. I was running a busy law practice

while raising a family, and I was on the fast track to burnout. I thought I just needed to be more

organized or have better routines, but it was learning

how to heal and regulate my nervous system that expand in my capacity to gracefully hold more

of this big, beautiful life.

You too are worthy of an extraordinary life in and beyond motherhood.

Learning to be a calm, anchoring presence in your home and at work

is going to be your superpower. If you're here to do the inner work that brings a sense of calm

amidst the chaos, I'm here to join you on that journey. Each time you press play, your growth

continues. So let's get at it.

Hey friends, welcome to the Calm On Podcast. I am Michelle Grosser, and I'm so grateful you're with us today. We're going to talk about why some of us struggle so much to rest.

And we're going to talk about three specific reasons. They're all subconscious.

I think so often our struggle with rest, our struggle with slowing down really comes from

these beliefs and these labels and these patterns and this conditioning that we don't even

realize that we have. And I know for me, these three were a big part in really learning

how to embrace slowing down, resting, recharging. And that was a huge part of my healing and learning

how to regulate my nervous system. And I believe it's true for you too. So I'm excited to get into it

with you guys. But before we do, if you don't yet follow
