My podcast (Building Resilience) episode this week was inspired by someone in my Nervous System Journaling Club community (which stay tuned for some rebranding in the New Year to my community!!) 💕 They asked if I had an episode explaining the stress cycle and I realized I talk about it all the time, but hadn’t dedicated a full episode to it yet. So that is exactly what I did! And I thought I'd share it here too! Big idea in simple terms: Stress doesn’t end just because the situation ends. It ends when your nervous system gets a signal that the cycle is complete - physically, emotionally, socially, or creatively. If you’ve ever thought: - “Why am I still wired even though the day is over?” - “Nothing big is happening… so why am I so exhausted?” ...then you will enjoy this episode! And here are 2 journal prompts to play with after you listen: 1️⃣ What is your favourite way to complete the stress cycle ( and how often am I actually doing it right now? 2️⃣ What signs tell you your stress cycle is NOT complete (in your body, mood, sleep, or reactions)? If you listen, come back and let me know what stood out and share your insights to the questions!

I’ve been paying closer attention lately to how stress shows up in my decision-making 🌿 I’ve realized that when my nervous system is overloaded, it quietly starts making choices for me. Rushing me, second-guessing me, or having me avoid things I actually know how to do. One tool I use to interrupt that pattern is aromatherapy, not in a “self-care” way, but as a practical way to regulate my system between thinking, deciding, and executing 🧪 What’s important to me is understanding both the safety and science behind essential oils and learning to trust my body’s feedback as I use them ✨ I don’t approach this as something to get perfect. It’s more about building capacity slowly. About supporting focus, steadiness, and clarity so stress doesn’t run my show 🫶🏽 This has helped me make decisions from a more grounded place instead of reacting in the moment 🌱 I’m curious — in your business right now, where do you notice stress influencing your decisions the most? 💬
