This isn’t your average “stress management” talk, this is about what’s actually happening in your nervous system when you can’t focus, snap at loved ones, or can’t fall asleep without wine or a sleep aid. We’ll unpack the Polyvagal Theory in plain English, use color-coded states (Red, Yellow, Green) to track your stress in real-time, and reveal why your thoughts aren’t the problem, they’re just messengers. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how your biology influences your burnout and what to do about it that doesn’t involve toxic positivity or pushing harder.
