In this episode, we’re unpacking what really happens when high-achieving, self-aware women finally slow down—and instead of peace, they find panic.
We’re talking about the hidden reason stillness feels triggering, why spiraling doesn’t mean you’re broken, and how to meet the pause without abandoning yourself.
If you’ve ever felt like you should be resting, but your nervous system starts freaking out instead... this one’s for you.
In This Episode, I Cover:-
Why highly creative, multi-passionate and ambitious women often feel unsafe in slowing down
-
The truth behind why rest and space feel “wrong” or disorienting
-
How we’ve attached our worth to movement, productivity, and “doing”
-
The role of the nervous system in creating spirals when you're slowing down
-
The difference between external success and internal safety
-
What it really means to meet yourself in the sacred pause/void
