Do you ever catch yourself spiraling, thinking "everyone's judging me" or "everyone noticed that mistake"?
Chances are… It's not everyone. It's probably just two people.
In this episode, we're breaking down why small situations can feel huge in our minds, and how your nervous system is often the one behind the exaggeration. You'll learn what's actually happening in your body when fear or embarrassment kicks in, how your brain builds stories to match those sensations, and what to do to bring it all back to size.
We'll talk about neuroception (how your body detects threat before your brain does), story inflation, and simple ways to regulate when your nervous system starts blowing things out of proportion.
If you've ever overthought, overreacted, or made a mountain out of a mental molehill — this one's for you.

Quick tools to calm your body so your thoughts can follow
