A podcast for horse people who feel there’s a deeper way—one rooted in connection, softness, and trust. Hosted by Equine Scientist Steffi Spielhaupter, this is a space for nervous system-informed horsemanship, personal transformation, and coming home to yourself. For those unlearning, unfolding, and finding new ways to be with their horses—and with life. Because soundness isn’t just for your horse. It’s for you, too. www.scienceforsoundness.com

16: You’re Not Lazy—You’re In a Shutdown State

Feeling stuck, numb, or disconnected—but still judging yourself for not doing more? This episode reframes “laziness” through a polyvagal lens and explores how dorsal shutdown may be quietly running the show.

Whether you’re frozen on the inside or caring for a horse who seems “shut down” on the outside, this one is for you.

What we explore:
— What shutdown really feels like
— How it shows up in horses and humans
— Why pushing through isn’t the answer
— How to begin reconnecting—gently

🎧 Listen now and meet yourself with more compassion than ever before.

Support your journey inside the Inner Circle.
