Igniting Shakti
by Natasha
Welcome to the Igniting Shakti Podcast - where we interrupt self-override and reclaim steady power. I’m Natasha, and I help midlife women recognize where they’ve been overriding themselves and guide them out of survival mode. Because burnout isn’t the root. Self-override is. When you constantly push through exhaustion, silence your body’s signals, perform instead of pause, and normalize nervous system chaos - survival mode becomes your baseline. This podcast is where we interrupt that pattern. Inside, you’ll find grounded conversations on: • The real root of burnout and chronic overwhelm • How self-override shows up in your body, work, relationships, and health • Ritual as intentional presence • Rhythm as pattern awareness • Regulation as steady nervous system power • Ancient wisdom tools - including Ayurveda, numerology, feminine archetypes, and cyclical living -
