Summary

In this episode, Sonya Janisse shares her powerful late-in-life realization that she is neurodivergent and had been living in survival mode for most of her life. She opens up about growing up without emotional safety, masking for decades, and ultimately finding healing through nervous system work, movement, mindset, and community. Sonya now helps others break free from burnout and build aligned lives rooted in self-trust.

Quotes

• “A regulated nervous system is not a luxury — it’s a human right.”

• “I wasn’t broken. I was surviving the only way I knew how.”

• “Alignment doesn’t come from forcing yourself to fit — it comes from honoring who you’ve always been.”
