 If you’re the woman who’s always in motion—holding it all together at work and at home—but secretly running on empty, this episode is for you. 

In this masterclass-style episode, I walk you through a radical reframe that changed my life: Rest isn’t a luxury. It’s a leadership strategy. I’ll introduce you to the real reason it’s so hard to slow down (hint: it’s not willpower), and teach you how to work with your nervous system—not against it—so you can finally feel calm, clear, and confident again. 

You’ll learn: 

  • Why “slowing down” can feel unsafe (even if your body is begging for rest)
  • The 3 states of the nervous system—and how to shift into your most powerful one
  • The SOS Method to build your capacity for slowing down (without crashing)
  • My personal journey from burnout to balance—and the surprising link between rest and creativity
  • Why rest actually makes you more productive, effective, and alive


I’ll also share the 4 hidden patterns I see in high-achieving women that keep us stuck in survival mode—and how to gently rewire them from the inside out.
 
This is a powerful episode for any woman who’s tired of “doing it all” and ready to live, lead, and thrive differently.
