Okay friends, listen. I think one of the most powerful interventions we can make in this next generation isn’t just another behaviour strategy or classroom tool — it’s helping big people understand how their own brains work. That’s why I could not wait to bring Natasha Dorsey on the pod. She's a clinical hypnotherapist, cognitive science researcher, solo parent, and soon-to-be PhD — and she’s doing some of the most important work I’ve seen around burnout, regulation, and why we’re all just so damn tired.
In this episode, we talk about why the nervous system has to come first (yes, before curriculum, before interventions, before another behaviour plan), and how self-awareness is the game changer we’re not talking about enough. Natasha walks us through what she calls “internal self-monitoring,” how to reframe our autopilot reactions, and why tiny, doable shifts (like changing your grocery store or taking a different route home) can literally rewire your brain for safety and connection.
If you’re an educator, a parent, a leader — heck, a human — who’s ever felt like you should be coping better, or that maybe you’re just not cut out for this anymore… please, listen to this. You are not broken. You’re likely just dysregulated. And you have so much power to come back to yourself.
