• Reactive Regulation: Lean In or Change Course?

  I’m dysregulated, now what? This episode dives into two powerful approaches you can use when you notice anxiety, depression, or other challenging emotions arising: leaning in, or changing course. We’ll explore what each of these options look like, as well as, how to best use them, by understanding your nervous system's various states and how they inform your approach to regulation.Three Takeaways:You Have a Choice: When dysregulated, you can choose to either lean into and support the experience or change course to move towards regulation. Neither is inherently better, but each offers different benefits and tools.Leaning in vs. Changing Course: Leaning in builds your capacity to be with challenging feelings; while changing course involves utilizing tools to directly shift your physiological state. Both strategies can help you to feel more in control and more stable in your healing journey.Build Your Toolkit: Knowing what to do in the moment when dysregulated is key to breaking free from spiraling. Today we talk about tools to meet yourself where you're at and build the capacity to heal.Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE consultation for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program.Join me inside RISE, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space.Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

• Regulating In A World On Fire

  In this episode of Regulate & Rewire, we explore how to navigate collective trauma and maintain mental health in a world that feels increasingly chaotic. From California wildfires to global conflicts, we discuss why our ancient nervous systems struggle with modern information overload and offer practical strategies for staying regulated while staying informed. Learn about the concept of "conscious oscillation," tips for healthy information consumption, and why finding moments of joy isn't just allowed - it's necessary for sustained resilience and impact.Three Takeaways:Our nervous systems evolved for a world of immediate, local threats - not the constant stream of global catastrophes we now face through modern technology. Understanding this mismatch helps explain why we feel overwhelmed and gives us permission to set boundaries.Balance Information and Regulation: Limit news consumption, take meaningful action when you can, and prioritize rest and joy to keep your nervous system balanced.Finding joy and allowing moments of lightness during dark times isn't privilege or denial - it's a biological necessity for nervous system regulation. Conscious oscillation between engagement and rest helps us stay resilient and effective.Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE consultation for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program.Join me inside RISE, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space.Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

These habits are simple yet powerful tools for creating a foundation of nervous system health and emotional well-being.Inside this episode, I share why these pillars matter, how to approach them, and why starting small is the key to lasting change.Three Takeaways:Focus on the Foundations of Health. Sleep, movement, nutrition, stress management, and community support your nervous system and overall healing.Start Small and Build Gradually.
