You’ve got strategies and systems, but you still feel like your brain is always “on.” You might be overlooking your nervous system.

In this episode:
- Why breathing wrong could be keeping you stuck
- What the autonomic nervous system has to do with procrastination, burnout, and freeze mode
- How polyvagal theory explains that “can’t shut down” feeling
No breathwork hype, no vague advice, just real science, grounded insight, and new tools.

Now she and her husband, former programmer Robert Waterson, work as fractional COOs for those founders. They find the bottleneck, hire the fix, and build the system that holds.
