Have you noticed that even when life slows down… your body doesn’t?

You finish the work. The pressure eases. The crisis passes.
But your system stays alert.

This episode explores why your nervous system won’t fully power down even when nothing is technically “wrong.”

We’re talking about the difference between anxiety and long-term over-responsibility. How anticipation keeps the body activated. Why midlife shifts make this pattern more noticeable, and what actually helps regulation return without forcing calm.

If you’ve been functioning well but not fully recovering, this conversation will likely feel familiar.

You don’t need to relax harder.
You may just need less internal load.

And just remember…
You’re remembHERing who you came here to be.

— Tara

You’ve always been the strong one.
The capable one.
The one who gets shit done, holds it together, figures it out, no matter what.

But lately, your body has other plans.

In this episode, Tara unpacks what’s really going on beneath the surface for high-functioning, emotionally intelligent women who are secretly at their edge:

• Inflammation that doesn’t make sense

• Nervous system irritation you can’t fix with mindset

• Liver congestion from years of repressed anger

• The energetic overload of always being the responsible one

• Why rest doesn’t feel restful and what your body is actually asking for

If you’ve done the work but still feel like your system is maxed out…
This conversation is your wake-up call and your permission slip.

You don’t need a solution.
You need recognition.
And the space to exhale.

No practices, no fixing. Just understanding.

Relationships are shifting right now, and a lot of women are calling it rejection.

But what if it’s not rejection at all
What if it’s grief moving through the body as you outgrow old roles, old dynamics, and old versions of yourself

In this episode, I explore why relationship change hits the lungs, heart, stomach, and liver
How grief becomes resentment when we skip the heart
And why Saturn moving into Aries is a poetic invitation to stop abandoning yourself to stay connected

You’ll also get one simple somatic tool to create real release: the left-side heart-breath practice
