About this listen

How do you calm your nervous system after a heated interaction, emotional trigger, or overwhelming moment?

In this episode of The Rosie & Roula Show, Roula opens up about what happens after emotional spikes — the sweating, racing thoughts, migraines, and the urge to run away from the feeling. Together, Rosie and Roula explore real, human ways to regulate the nervous system after conflict, stress, or emotional overload.

They talk honestly about what works, what doesn’t, and why sometimes “just calm down” makes things worse. From box breathing and movement to sitting with discomfort instead of venting, this episode offers grounded tools you can actually try — even when you feel exhausted and overstimulated.

This is a compassionate conversation for anyone who struggles to come back to baseline after emotional stress.

In this episode, we explore:

How emotional triggers dysregulate the nervous system

Why venting can sometimes keep you stuck

Box breathing and nervous system regulation

Sitting with discomfort instead of escaping it

Physical symptoms of emotional overload

Finding what actually works for you
