Sensational Moms: Support For Overstimulated Moms

You Don’t Need a Nervous System Reset (Here’s What You Actually Need)


Listen Later

There’s a lot of pressure right now telling moms they need a nervous system reset — especially if you’re feeling overstimulated, exhausted, or emotionally maxed out.

 But what if your nervous system isn’t broken at all?

In this episode, I’m gently unpacking why nervous system resets don’t always work, where this message comes from, and why so many overstimulated moms feel worse after trying to “fix” themselves. 

We’ll talk about what’s actually happening in your body, how chronic sensory overload affects regulation, and why support works better than pressure.

If you’re a mom who feels touched out, mentally overloaded, or stuck in survival mode — this episode will help you understand your nervous system through a calmer, more compassionate lens. No resets. No rigid routines. Just realistic nervous system support that fits real mom life.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why the idea of a “nervous system reset” is misleading
  • What overstimulation looks like in the nervous system
  • Why regulation isn’t about fixing yourself
  • What helps overstimulated moms feel safer and more supported

This episode is for homeschool moms, sensitive moms, and anyone who feels overwhelmed by constant noise, demands, and expectations — and is ready to stop chasing regulation and start responding to their body instead.
