A Vulnerable Deep Dive: How I’m Re-Patterning My Nervous System in Real Time | Ep 398

About this episode

Erin Holt discusses her personal journey of re-patterning her nervous system amidst a high-pressure environment.

If you’ve ever felt like your nervous system is constantly jacked up and running on pressure, urgency, and adrenaline, this episode is a vulnerable deep dive into why that happens. Erin is taking you inside what nervous system re-patterning and brain rewiring actually look like through the lens of a deadline-driven season where pushing harder led to getting sick and realizing she couldn’t keep forcing her way through anymore.
