Have you ever felt like you’re just waiting for the other shoe to drop, even when everything seems fine?

In this episode, we discuss the hidden ways hypervigilance shows up in our lives—how our bodies can get stuck in a state of high alert, always bracing for the worst, even when we really just want peace.

We’ll talk about why calm can feel so unfamiliar, how childhood experiences shape our adult responses, and what it really takes to teach our bodies that safety is possible.We talk about the science behind trauma responses, and practical steps you can take to start feeling at home in your own skin.

Ready to move from survival mode to a life where you can truly thrive?
Let’s do this together.
