Welcome to a new episode of the Future Generations Podcast! Today we’re joined by Jessica Maguire, a leading voice in the world of nervous system healing and the founder of “Repairing the Nervous System.” Jessica is a physiotherapist, educator, and nervous system regulation expert who has helped over 20,000 people through her programs and work online. In this episode, we dive into the importance of interoception, neuroplasticity, and vagus nerve function in healing trauma, restoring trust, and building vibrant families. Whether you’re a parent, a clinician, or someone navigating life after chronic stress, this conversation offers deep wisdom and practical insight into how to reconnect with your inner voice and regulate your body’s signals, not suppress them.

Highlights:

“The antidote to anxiety is not calm, it’s trust.”

 

“Pain doesn’t always equal tissue damage, pain is a protective system.”

 

“True self-regulation is not about being calm all the time. It’s about being authentic.”

 

“Babies aren’t born with self-regulation. It’s given to them through co-regulation.”
