The Daily Weird Shit That Actually Builds Capacity

About this episode

Sarai Speer shares daily practices that help rebuild the nervous system after burnout and maintain high capacity for life.

This is the one you have been waiting for. The actual tools. The specific daily practices that rebuilt Sarai's nervous system after burnout and that she uses every single day to keep her capacity high enough to hold the life she is building. No overhaul, or perfect morning routine. No equipment. Just small regulation tools stacked onto things you are already doing every single day, before your feet hit the floor, while your coffee brews, in the shower, in the car, and before bed. We also get into the phone conversation nobody wants to have , why chronic connectivity is draining your capacity faster than almost anything else, and what six weeks without a phone in treatment taught Sarai about what her nervous system actually needs to recover. You will walk away with a full habit stacked daily regulation practice, the questions that catch capacity depletion before it becomes a breakdown, and a completely different relationship with your ordinary Tuesday. This is how capacity gets built. Not in the crisis. In the calm. Capacity Club opens April 6th. First live call April 15th.
