Nervous System Regulation (Part 1), with Jane Pilger

As working mothers and high achievers, we are trained to keep pushing through—no matter the cost. On top of that, you've probably been told at some point that the best way to be taken seriously as a woman in leadership is not to show any emotion.  That can lead you to keep pushing down your emotions. But those pesky emotions often refuse to be silenced. That's why I recently sat down with nervous system expert Jane Pilger to demystify a topic you've heard about but may not fully get: nervous system regulation. No doubt, you've heard about the benefits of nervous system regulation for your children.  But, did you know that it's a skill that the most trusted leaders employ pretty much daily? We break down why one key to effective leadership—at work and at home—starts with staying in control of your own internal state. When you understand how your nervous system works, you stop fighting yourself and start moving forward with more ease and confidence. This isn't about "fixing" or eliminating your emotions. It's about working with your body and mind, not against it. What You'll Learn:  What is your nervous system "home base", and how do you know if you're in it? Why willpower and pushing through don't help Practical tools you can use in stressful moments Why expanding your "emotional capacity" is a core leadership skill   This conversation is packed with simple, practical strategies you can use immediately. Tune in now and learn how to lead from a place of calm strength—no ice baths or meditation cushion needed. For more information, visit The Mental Offload.
