About this episode
Hi my loves 🦋 if you've been living in survival mode, overthinking, overworking, overdoing… then this episode is for you. Today, I'm sharing the tools, mindset shifts, and nervous system practises that have helped me stop, trying to control everything and start living with more peace, trust, and softness. We'll talk about how to let go of the pressure to do it all, how does feel safe and rest, and how to shift back into your feminine energy in a way that feels nourishing, not performative.

Today's Journal Prompts:
1. where am I forcing or controlling right now in my life and what’s one mindset that I can make to release even a little bit of this pressure? 
2. what does softness feel like in my body and how can I create more of it within my week?
