You don’t need another vacation—you need a nervous system that isn’t white-knuckling its way through life. In this episode, we unpack why rest feels so damn hard (especially for helpers), the nervous system patterns that keep us stuck in the hustle, and how to shift from crash-and-burn to recalibrate-and-reclaim. If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting, or numb even after a weekend off, this one’s for you. Welcome to the recalibration.
Over it but not done? Join The Messy Middle Reset on Friday, January 30, 2026 from 10a-12p CST, my live nervous system sanctuary workshop for helpers. Get the details at https://shawnalovinlpcs.com/services.
