“Your nervous system isn’t the enemy—it’s your messenger.”
Host note:
Attunement note: brief mention of a parent’s ER visit and hospital admission.
Please take what serves your nervous system and leave the rest. We’ll breathe together and end with grounding. My hope is that hearing “life in motion,” not after the fact, helps you feel witnessed and resourced right where you are.
In this raw, unedited episode, Kylie brings you into a real-time week of being “sandwiched” between roles and generations: full-time mom to Indigo during Halloween week, co-launching a new program with Cyrus, party planning, and fielding a late-night call that her mom has had a stroke. From ER coordination and family dynamics to perimenopause shifts and career momentum, she names the nervous system spikes—activation, overwhelm, survival mode—and walks you through the exact somatic tools she’s using to come back to center.
You’ll hear why long-term therapy matters in moments like this, how to pre-decide 60-second and 5-minute resets, and how “body first, then logistics” changes everything. Kylie shares practical structures for crisis (family maps, decision deadlines, twice-daily updates), plus the mantra that’s saving her: I can be with what’s here without fixing what’s not mine. Along the way: spooky toothbrush kits, Alanis-level irony, and the reminder that joy is not disrespect—it’s a resource.
If you’re caring for aging parents while raising little ones, building work you love while your body is changing, and holding space for everyone while wondering who’s holding you—you’re not alone. Breathe with Kylie, regulate together, and remember: you don’t need every answer. Just the next kind thing.
Includes: guided breaths, somatic suggestions, practical scripts, and a lot of permission to be human.
