Stop Pushing Through, Start Processing with Kara Kalin
from Modelling Success in Action · host Jessica Taylor
High performers are taught to push through stress, ignore discomfort, and keep going, but that only lasts until the body says no. In this episode, Kara Kalin takes us into her model of the world, sharing her personal discovery that we simply can’t outthink nervous system distress. Together, we explore how stress gets stored in the nervous system, and why so many capable, driven people hit invisible walls despite doing “everything right.”We put the difference between coping and true processing on the table, and get into Kara's method for creating a real shift. This episode will change how you see stress, resilience, and healing.Kara Kalin is the founder and CEO of Shift Change, a neuroscience-based platform transforming how individuals and organizations respond to stress and trauma.
