Why Your Nervous System Controls Your Success with Rachel Pfeiffer

In this episode I sit down with psychotherapist Rachel to explore why your nervous system may be the hidden factor shaping your success, stress and wellbeing.Together, we unpack why high performers often live from the mind instead of the body, how unresolved patterns keep us stuck, and why slowing down can feel so uncomfortable. Rachel also guides me through a powerful live somatic exercise that completely shifted my perspective. What we cover:Why your nervous system determines what you can hold in lifeHow trauma and childhood experiences shape ambition and stressWhy many high performers tie their identity to achievementPractical tools to regulate your nervous system and perform sustainablyIf you've ever felt driven but exhausted, this conversation will give you a completely new way of understanding yourself. Learn more about Rachel here - https://www.theembodiedmind.com.au/about-rachelFollow Rachel on IG here - https://www.instagram.com/rachelpfeiffer/?hl=enIf you’re interested in having me deliver a keynote or workshop for your team contact Caroline at [email protected]: https://www.jjlaughlin.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6GETJbxpgulYcYc6QAKLHA Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JamesLaughlinOfficial Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jameslaughlinofficial/ Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/life-on-purpose-with-james-laughlin/id1547874035 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3WBElxcvhCHtJWBac3nOlF?si=hotcGzHVRACeAx4GvybVOQ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jameslaughlincoaching/James Laughlin is a High Performance Leadership Coach, Former 7-Time World Champion, Host of the Habits of High Performers Podcast and an Executive Coach to high performers and leaders.
