from Somatic Healing for Wellness-Focused Women · host Rae The Somatic Coach

In this episode, we explore the psychology of meaningful work, nervous system regulation, burnout, purpose, and what it really means to feel aligned with the life you’re creating. This conversation is a deeply personal reflection on healing, grief, growth, somatic healing, and building a life rooted in your core values. Through stories of grief, personal healing, anxiety, perfectionism, nervous system regulation, and entrepreneurship, this episode invites you to reconnect with what matters most and redefine success on your own terms.✨ In this episode, you’ll learn: What the psychology of meaningful work really means  How nervous system dysregulation and survival mode disconnect us from purpose  Why meaningful work starts with understanding your core values How grief, healing, and life experiences can shape your purpose 🌿 This episode is for you if: You feel disconnected, burned out, or unfulfilled in your work  You’re questioning your purpose or career path  You want to create a more intentional and meaningful life  You’re interested in nervous system healing, somatics, personal growth, and emotional healing  You’re navigating a season of transition, reinvention, or self-discovery Meaningful work is less about finding one perfect purpose—and more about creating a life that feels aligned with your values, your nervous system, and who you truly are.📩 Want more somatic healing tools and nervous system support?
