About this listen

You’re not lazy. You’re not inconsistent. You’re not broken.
You’ve just been in survival mode for so long, your body forgot what peace feels like.

In this episode, Keren Elijah shares a personal story—one that starts with dizziness, moves through hospital visits, and ends with a life-altering wake-up call about what the body remembers. Through the lens of nervous system safety, she teaches how exhaustion, overwhelm, and shutdown are not failures—they’re signals. And they deserve to be honored.

Whether you’re building a business, managing a team, or just trying to show up for your life, this episode offers truth that lands:
You don’t have to perform to be powerful.
You don’t have to pretend to be okay.
You don’t have to keep pushing through pain.

This is your permission to pause.
To check in.
To come home to yourself.
