2025-12-1608 minBeyond the ChecklistHow I Reflect Without the Shame SpiralMost of us were never taught how to reflect — only how to evaluate, compare, and judge. For neurodivergent, sensitive, or highly self-aware brains, reflection often turns into replaying mistakes, tallying unfinished tasks, or rewriting what we “should” have done.That isn’t reflection.That’s a shame spiral — a nervous system response that blocks insight and shuts down curiosity.In this episode, Shannon breaks down why reflection so easily becomes self-blame, how shame disrupts integration, and the exact process she uses to review her life without tipping into guilt or pressure. You’ll learn how to s...

It’s not because we don’t care. It’s because our nervous systems know when we’re acting from pressure instead of readiness.Shannon unpacks how to tell the difference, what happens in the brain when we try to “push through,” and how to build genuine readiness without shame or urgency.

Who Turned The Lights On?S3:E4 If You're 40+ and Brand New to Your Nervous System, This One's For You!Your Nervous System matters, a lot. How it works, arguably, matters more. For example, as an infant, your nervous system requires the nervous systems of your caregivers to provide for it, train it, support its development and maturity. (It's called co-regulation) - in its absence your nervous system gets stuck and disrupts all sorts, through adulthood, well into your 40s, until you deliberately invest in Nervous System Restoration efforts to repair and resolve. Your nervous system communicates the age your operate at - toddler, teen, young adult. It will drive the agenda, until it can trust you to...
