About this listen

If your body feels tense, wired, or constantly “on,” this episode is for you.

An overactive nervous system doesn’t mean something is wrong — it means your body has been under sustained stress without enough opportunities to fully downshift.

In part one of this short Capacity Expansion series, I’m breaking down why your nervous system feels overactive and walking you through three science-backed tools you can use in real time to help your body shift out of fight-or-flight.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why your nervous system reacts to modern stressors the same way it reacts to danger
  • What’s actually happening in your body when you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or on edge
  • Three simple, effective ways to regulate your nervous system in the moment
  • Why stillness and “just calming down” often don’t work when you’re activated
  • How real-time regulation creates the foundation for lasting capacity expansion

This episode is about relief — learning how to come back into your body when your system is activated.

In part 2, we’ll talk about why tools don’t always stick and what actually changes your baseline so you’re not constantly regulating just to get through the day.

Enrollment for Burnout Recovery Blueprint is open now, and we begin next week.
Cart closes Friday, January 16 at midnight EST.

🎧 Press play to learn how to regulate an overactive nervous system — and build the foundation for real capacity expansion.
