When stress and disruption pile up, burnout isn’t always a personal failure — it’s often a nervous system that’s been holding too much without support.

In this episode of Notes to My Nervous System, Erin Vandermore talks with Leigh Schultes, founder of Wilderness Muse in western North Carolina, about what regulation looks like after crisis. They explore how community, creativity, and clear boundaries can support nervous systems recovering from prolonged stress — especially for small business owners and caregivers.

This is a grounded conversation about pacing, trust, and learning to stop before the body forces it. No fixing. No performance. Just what actually helps people settle and keep going.

This conversation isn’t about heroics or resilience as performance.It’s about what actually helps a nervous system recover after disruption — community, creativity, boundaries, and knowing when to stop.
