268. Why You Keep Checking Out (& How to Come Back In)

When you find yourself scrolling through your phone instead of spending time with family, or lying in bed when it’s beautiful outside, your body has figured out something you haven’t yet. You are stressed out, checked out, and shut down.

In this episode, I explore why so many women feel stuck in shutdown mode, especially during summer when expectations are high and routines are out the window. I break down how even positive experiences like beach days and family barbecues can dysregulate sensitive nervous systems, and why motivation is terrible fuel that will only create more stress. By the end, you’ll understand how to work with your shutdown responses instead of fighting them, and create a summer that actually works for your brain and body.
