Together we explore what it truly means to feel safe in your own body not conceptually, but physically. What is the elusive nervous system? What is nervous system regulation? Not only does Georgie answer these questions beautifully and more, she shares her honest, moving story of anxiety, panic attacks, postnatal depression and the pivotal moment during the pandemic that led her to discover the power of nervous system work. Her journey will resonate with anyone who has ever pushed through life on adrenaline, overridden their inner knowing or lived in a constant state of “what if”.Across this conversation you’ll learn:What the nervous system actually is beyond mindset, beyond theoryWhy so many women live in survival mode without realising itThe difference between ventral vagal (safety), sympathetic (fight/flight), and dorsal vagal (freeze)How your upbringing, past experiences and old protective patterns create your current responsesWhy your body “borrows” energy from digestion, immunity and sleep when you’re stressedHow nervous system states influence people pleasing, burnout, procrastination and overthinkingWhy traditional calming techniques don’t work when you’re too activatedThe simple cues your body gives you when you’re shifting back into regulationHow reconnecting with your inner child restores safety and softens old survival tendenciesGeorgie also generously walks us through two beautiful, accessible practices that you can use anytime you need to.Connect with GeorgieInsta @georgieshearsstrategistWebsite: www.shift-yours.com Georgie Shears is a Nervous System Strategist and ICF-accredited Neurosomatics practitioner who works with high-achieving founders, leaders, and entrepreneurs ready to elevate how they live and lead.
