In this episode, you’ll learn:

What myofascial meridians are—and why they matter

How each line supports movement, posture, and strength

Simple questions to work with each meridian

Where is fascia found in the body?

What does it actually do?

Why it matters for your strength, mobility, and longevity

If you're feeling overwhelmed, you're not wrong and you're not failing. But if you ignore this warning from your body, you're on the fast track to burnout. In this deeply personal and science-backed episode, Alison Starr unpacks overwhelm as a red flag, not a flaw. Drawing from somatic psychology, nervous system research, and lived experience, she reveals how ignoring the signs of stress and overload can lead to burnout—and how to turn it around.

• Understand the physiology of overwhelm (it's not just in your head)
• Learn bottom-up, body-based tools to recalibrate in real-time
• Discover the power of increasing certainty
• Explore how transformation begins when you stop resisting what is

Using metaphors like the “batting cage,” the "window of tolerance," and the cycle of burnout, this episode is a compassionate, eloquent guide for women who are ready to rewire overwhelm into clarity and self-sustaining power.
