Do you ever freeze, over-explain, or shut down during holiday gatherings — or in high-stakes moments at work?
In this episode, we explore what’s actually happening in your body when stress rises, expectations pile up, and old family dynamics collide with an already overloaded nervous system.
You’ll learn why ambitious moms feel these reactions more intensely, how holiday expectations and forced gratitude can make things worse, and the simple body-first cues that help you interrupt the pattern.
Plus, a grounding micro-practice you can use in any conversation — during the holidays and far beyond.
For moms who want to stay regulated, present, and confident in moments that matter most.
