The Modern Phoenix

Renovations, Motherhood & Meeting My Upper Limits on The Phoenix Spiral


Listen Later

What if the chaos in your life wasn’t the problem—but the pressure you pile on top of it?

In this raw and personal episode, Gervase shares the story of her unexpected home renovation, how it pushed her to the edge of her money stories and nervous system’s capacity, and the surprising lessons it taught her about money, motherhood, and meeting upper limits.

Instead of grinding harder, she discovered the power of release, metaphor, and permission—the feminine way of moving through life. Drawing from her own experiences and her work with clients, Gervase reveals how embracing the Phoenix spiral of death and rebirth can turn breakdowns into breakthroughs.

If you’ve ever felt stretched too thin, guilty for dropping the ball, or at your breaking point, this episode is your reminder that you don’t have to force your way through. There’s another way—and it begins with letting go.

Listen now to discover:  Why chaos isn’t the problem—it’s the pressure we attach to it  How nervous system capacity sets the ceiling for love, money, and abundance  The Instant Pot “pressure valve” metaphor to release tension and reclaim peace  Why dropping some of the balls you juggle is not only safe but necessary  The Phoenix spiral: why life is death & rebirth, not a straight line  How to reconnect to metaphor, archetype, and your inner world when life feels overwhelming  Permission to embrace all of you—Netflix binges, divine downloads, and everything in between

This episode is for you if:  You’re navigating a season of overwhelm and want a fresh perspective  You find yourself self-sabotaging when life or money expands  You feel like you’re always at your limit and need practical ways to soften  You crave a reminder that being human—messy, chaotic, and cyclical—is not a failure but part of the path
