What does alignment look like when the world feels heavy and your nervous system is maxed out?
In this episode of Journey to Radiance, we’re having the real conversation for the days when staying “high vibe” feels impossible - and forcing positivity would be straight-up bypassing reality. We unpack what radiance actually is (hint: it’s not perfection or performing), and what it looks like to stay grounded without going numb.

You’ll hear practical, human tools for hard days:
- how to “check your state” before consuming news or social media
- setting boundaries around media so you don’t spiral
- shifting your environment to support your nervous system
- using creativity, movement, and humor as regulation tools (without minimizing reality)
- focusing on your “cup of change” when the world feels too big
- knowing your signs (snippy, tense, anxious) and what to do in the moment

We also share powerful wisdom from our Rochester community—and the reminder that you can care deeply without letting the weight of everything take you out.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, angry, sad, or emotionally flooded lately… this one will meet you right where you are and help you come back to yourself with compassion, grace, and a little more breath in your chest.
