➡️ ➡️ > SAVE YOUR SPOT: "FROM ON EDGE TO AT EASE" WORKSHOP < ⬅️ ⬅️

You’ve got things to be grateful for. You’ve read the books. You know better.

So why do you still feel reactive, anxious, or like you’re about to snap at the smallest thing?

Here’s the truth: feeling “on edge” has nothing to do with willpower or mindset.

In today’s episode, we’re unpacking the real reason so many high-capacity women stay stuck in cycles of overwhelm — and it’s not because you’re doing it wrong.

You’ll learn:

• The difference between stress and nervous system dysregulation
  
• How your body stores survival responses — even after the threat is gone
  
• Why top-down tools (like positive thinking) often fall flat
  
• What to do instead to actually start feeling safe in your body again
  

If this resonates, I want you to join me for a free live workshop I’m teaching called From On Edge to At Ease, happening Tuesday, August 26.

You’ll learn simple, body-based tools to help you move out of survival mode and into real regulation.
