What if the key to transforming your life isn't just positive thinking but actually lies deeper in your nervous system? When Kathryn Spears walked away from her "dream job" in marketing, she discovered that beneath her perfectionism, overachieving, and workaholism lay trauma responses that kept her disconnected from her body and true self.

In this mind-opening conversation, Kathryn reveals the critical distinction between mindset work and nervous system regulation. While affirmations and visualization have their place, they can't override a dysregulated nervous system that's constantly signaling danger. Your brain processes 400 billion pieces of information through filters shaped by past experiences, and when you're stuck in survival mode, even the best mindset tools remain inaccessible.

The signs of dysregulation are everywhere if you know what to look for: anxiety, perfectionism, task-jumping with urgency, physical tension, gut issues, and that bone-deep exhaustion at day's end. These aren't just inconveniences - they're your nervous system desperately trying to communicate with you.

Whether you're struggling with perfectionism, experiencing unexplained physical symptoms, or simply feeling stuck despite doing all the "right" things, this episode offers a fresh perspective and practical tools to begin your regulation journey. Your body is speaking to you - are you ready to listen?
