Episode Summary: What does it really mean to regulate your nervous system—and how do you know when it's dysregulated in the first place? In this episode, Dr. Debi Silber is joined by her friend and fellow healer Akary Busto for a wide-ranging, insight-packed conversation on nervous system regulation, HeartMath, human design, and how subtle energetic shifts can create massive emotional healing—especially in the aftermath of betrayal.

Akary shares her personal journey of healing through biofeedback, breathwork, and intuitive embodiment practices, and explains how knowing your human design can offer profound clarity on your reactions, choices, and energy.
