What's Your Nervous System Survival Score?

You finally get a quiet minute. The kids are down, the house is still, nothing needs you. And your body still won't let you rest.If that is you, this episode is going to give you a name for it.In this one I'm introducing something I've been sitting with for weeks: your Nervous System Survival Score. It's a way to actually measure how much of your life your body is spending in survival mode versus how much it gets to feel safe. We talk about why you're tired all day but wired the second your head hits the pillow, why you go from zero to a hundred over something small, and why understanding all of this still hasn't been enough to fix it.Then I walk you through a short self check, right there as you listen, so you can find your own score. And I promise you this: that number is not who you are. It is not permanent. Personalities don't change, but nervous systems do.If this episode lands for you, there are two ways to keep going:The Standing Circle, a weekly community where we practice this work together so you're not doing it alone.
