In this episode, business coach Emilie Wilcox shares how high productivity led to nervous system dysregulation and physical pain. What looked like ambition and drive on the outside was quietly overwhelming her body on the inside.

We discuss how stress directly impacts the nervous system, why pain is not always purely structural, and how chronic activation can heighten inflammation and pain sensitivity. Understanding nervous system regulation can be a powerful missing piece in managing pain and restoring resilience.

Sleep doesn’t start when your head hits the pillow; it’s a 24-hour process that shapes how you feel, perform, and recover each day. In this episode, we’re joined by Andrew Holmes, a sleep technologist, to break down how sleep really works and why so many people struggle with it.

We explore sleep stages, whether bedtime consistency matters, and what “sleep hygiene” looks like in real life. Andrew also highlights common sleep red flags, including signs of sleep apnea, and explains how poor sleep affects recovery, weight management, memory, and emotional regulation.

If you’re tired despite “sleeping enough” or suspect your sleep habits may be holding you back, this episode offers practical, evidence-informed insights and simple tips you can start using right away.
