Episode 317 - Healing the Nervous System with Faye Lawand

This episode contains adult subject matter and some listeners may be triggered by this content. Listener discretion is advised.

In this episode, we explore the profound connection between the nervous system and our overall wellbeing, highlighting how chronic stress, overwhelm, and exhaustion impact our daily lives. Our guest draws from personal experiences and global insights to share powerful ways we can resolve internal conflicts and reclaim our sense of calm and energy.

She introduces us to innovative, science-backed methods that move beyond traditional approaches, guiding us toward genuine relief and lasting wellbeing. Her insights encourage us to believe that we can restore balance to our nervous systems and rediscover the vibrant, energized lives we are meant to live.

FAYE LAWAND

Meet Faye Lawand – a seasoned expert in helping high-achieving women in midlife to overcome inner turmoil so that they can feel like themselves again. Originally from the Middle East, Faye has lived in 13 countries across four continents, giving her a unique global perspective on the human condition and the universal challenges of living with chronic stress. Fluent in three languages and conversational in a fourth, she knows firsthand that struggles with mental health, exhaustion, and pain transcend borders and backgrounds.

Her personal journey is both inspiring and transformative. Her first encounter with burnout came while living on a Caribbean island – a place people go to escape their troubles, not find them. This was the first of three significant burnouts that shaped her path.

Now, as an Internal Conflict Resolution Expert, Faye mentors others in overcoming exhaustion, chronic pain, and overwhelm. Her methods are modern, science-backed, and designed to deliver results without relying on medication, meditation, or extensive talk therapy.

At the core of her work is her signature 3-step Unstuck Formula™, a simple, science-backed method for high-achieving women to go from exhausted and overwhelmed to energised and in control in under 12 weeks. This proprietary system has supported thousands of women in 15 countries across 5 continents over the past 6 years to break free from overwhelm, reclaim their energy, and restore their well-being.

Jeff Bailey is an expert at restoring joint health. He has helped thousands overcome pain and return to their favorite activities.

At age fifty, Jeff incurred a high-speed ski accident that severely damaged his hip. The turning point came when he realized joints crave compression.
