6. Your Nervous System is Exhausted (And It's Not Your Fault)


Listen Later

If you've been feeling constantly on, wired but exhausted, overstimulated yet numb—this episode is for you. So many women are walking around in survival mode and calling it normal. Christie is here to tell you: it is not normal, and it is not your fault.

In this deeply validating solo episode, Christie Durham breaks down why so many high-achieving women are living with exhausted nervous systems. She explains that we were never taught how to feel safe in our bodies; we were taught how to perform, push, and produce. Your body isn't broken; it's been stuck in protection mode for way too long.

This episode is more than an explanation—it's a toolkit. Christie walks you through her powerful "Freedom Reset," a simple, two-minute nervous system recalibration practice you can do anywhere to signal safety back to your body. This is where true freedom begins.
