Rehearsing Posture After Loss: When Structure Collapses


Listen Later

What happens when the structure that once organized your life disappears?

In this episode, Dr. Linda Cecere explores what it actually means to lose structure — not just emotionally, but neurologically and identity-wise — and why even strong, capable women can feel disoriented after loss.

Drawing from lived experience, clinical insight, and mindset work, this conversation moves beyond soft reassurance and into something more useful:
How posture, authorship, and rehearsal help women move forward when change wasn’t their choice.

You’ll learn:

  • Why loss of structure creates disorientation — not weakness

  • The difference between movement and authorship after change

  • How identity reforms through intentional rehearsal, not waiting

  • Why the brain resists change (even good change) — and how to work with it

  • How to move through transition without kneeling in what ended

This episode is for women navigating forced change, identity shifts, burnout recovery, or reinvention — especially when clarity hasn’t arrived yet.

You don’t need to feel ready to move forward.
You need posture.

A free five-step exhale ritual is available at theeditedwoman.com for those who want gentle nervous system support after listening.
