What if the key to healing your patterns, pain, and even chronic symptoms isn’t in your mind — but in your nervous system? In part 2 of this powerful conversation, I welcome back Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Trauma Expert Sarah Baldwin to dive even deeper into the unseen architecture behind our behaviors, relationships, and health.

We pick up where we left off — exploring the six nervous system states — and take a closer look at the three core states of regulation. Sarah shares how patterns like avoidance and overachievement are often misunderstood protector parts, and how chronic dysregulation can silently drive emotional, physical, and relational suffering.

This episode also takes us into the transformative world of parts work — a method of identifying and tending to the younger, vulnerable parts of ourselves that carry unresolved pain, and the protective parts that step in to keep us safe. Sarah explains how healing happens when we step into our adult self and become the loving, attuned protector those parts have always needed.

We explore the building blocks of real intimacy, how to gently reconnect with your inner child, why endings can be sacred gifts, and why nervous system regulation may be the most powerful medicine of all.

From breathwork and stillness to play and embodiment, Sarah offers practical tools to support daily regulation and rewiring your nervous system. We also touch on the power of reparenting our younger parts and cultivating the adult self that allows for deep healing, connection, and lasting change.

If you’ve ever wondered why healing hasn’t "stuck," why certain patterns keep repeating, or why even LOVE can feel unsafe — this episode is for you.
