Feeling like you're constantly running on empty? In this episode, registered nurse and nervous system regulation coach Audrey Rose breaks down what it really means to regulate your nervous system—and no, it's not about being zen 24/7 or quitting your job.

We dive into Audrey's personal burnout story from her time as a lead nurse during the pandemic, the science behind fight-or-flight vs. rest-and-digest, and her four-step RISE method for managing stress in real time. You'll learn practical tools like EFT tapping, box breathing, and sound healing that actually work when you're dealing with 700 unread emails, screaming kids, or an overwhelming inbox.

This conversation is packed with science-backed strategies you can use right now—whether you're locked in a bathroom for five minutes or winding down at the end of the day. If you're a high-achiever who wants to keep your ambition without burning out, this episode is for you.
