About this listen

Sometimes, it is your circus... and those wild, rampaging monkeys? Yep, they’re yours too.

We’re talking about what happens when your emotions go haywire—grief, rage, anxiety, overwhelm—and all the "positive thinking" in the world just isn't cutting it. Kerry shares how our brains and bodies get hijacked in fight-or-flight mode, why it's not your fault, and what to do when you can't think your way into feeling better.

✨ You'll learn:

• Why trying to control your thoughts sometimes backfires

• How calming your body can unlock emotional peace

• Simple tools to regulate your nervous system (no toxic positivity required!)

• What a hot bath, a deep breath, and a gentle stroll all have in common

• The magic of breathing, walking meditations, and honoring your emotions + more.

If you’ve ever felt like a tornado of feelings has taken over your brain, this episode is your permission slip to stop fighting the storm—and start grounding yourself in something that actually works.
