Episode 180: How Your Nervous System Shapes Reactions, Relationships, and Resilience with Leah Davidson

Have you ever wondered why pausing before reacting feels impossible for you? Why do your automatic responses keep hijacking your intentions, especially with the people you love most?

In this powerful conversation, Tina is joined by Leah Davidson, a Nervous System Resilience Coach, life coach, and Speech Language Pathologist with over 26 years working in traumatic brain injury. Leah explains how our nervous system is running the show behind the scenes, shaping our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships – often without us realizing it.

Together, they explore:

• Why your nervous system reacts as if you’re in danger even when you’re safe
• How childhood experiences shape your nervous system’s lens today
• The connection between nervous system regulation, health, and emotional well-being
• Real-life examples of how dysregulation shows up in families and relationships
• How to build nervous system resilience so you can pause, respond thoughtfully, and heal intergenerational patterns

“Your nervous system is the lens through which you see the world. If that lens is cloudy, it affects everything you do.” – Leah Davidson
