EP 12: our nervous systems crave alcohol?

EP 12: our nervous systems crave alcohol?

In this episode, we explore our relationship with alcohol, emotional escape, and the culture of numbing. We share our own journeys with stepping away from drinking and unpack why alcohol is so deeply normalised as a way to "switch off," connect, or cope. Together, we dive into the psychology and nervous system behind why humans seek relief through alcohol and other forms of escape, touching on stress, trauma, burnout, belonging, and the fear of rejection. We discuss the difference between conscious enjoyment and emotional avoidance, what happens when your friendships and identity begin to evolve, and why choosing not to drink can sometimes feel more confronting than drinking itself. Ultimately, this episode isn't about alcohol-it's about what we're trying to escape from. We explore what it means to stop abandoning ourselves, learn to sit with discomfort, and create a life that feels safe enough that we no longer need to numb our way through it.

Join us for a deeply honest and moving conversation with Ella Burns as we explore what it really means to come home to yourself. In this episode, Ella shares: 💛 Her personal healing journey, who she was before this work, and the moments that sparked profound change 💛 How people pleasing, perfectionism and toxic shame quietly shape our identity, relationships, nervous system and sense of self 💛 The "underworld" of healing, what happened behind the scenes, what she had to grieve, and the versions of herself she had to let go of along the way 💛 Why understanding healing isn't the same as embodying it, and how so many women become disconnected from their bodies through survival mode 💛 The powerful role of music, movement, voice and women's circles in creating safety, regulation and genuine connection 💛 What embodiment, authenticity and "coming home to yourself" truly means, and the path from surviving to experiencing more joy, freedom and belonging 💛 What Ella is currently learning, navigating and becoming in this season of her life Whether you're in the middle of your own healing journey, feeling disconnected from yourself, or simply longing for a deeper sense of authenticity, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, hopeful and inspired.

EP 10: adhd + the link between the nervous system

In this episode, we unpack the rise of ADHD diagnoses in women and explore why so many are only discovering it in their 20s, 30s, and beyond. Through personal stories, we discuss diagnosis, self-identification, the role of labels, and what understanding ADHD can change. We dive into how ADHD often presents differently in women, why it has historically been overlooked, and the impact of masking, perfectionism, and burnout. T he conversation also explores the intersections between ADHD, trauma, hormones, and the nervous system, offering a more nuanced perspective than the traditional medical model alone. From dopamine and the menstrual cycle to procrastination, hyperfocus, emotional overwhelm, and nervous system regulation, this episode invites listeners to consider ADHD through multiple lenses. Most importantly, it's a conversation about understanding ourselves with more compassion and recognising that many women aren't broken-they've simply been trying to function in systems that weren't built for their brains or their nervous systems.

EP 9: britt solo -triggering others, getting out of your own way, staying ‘humble’,

A solo ep from Britt this week: I (Britt) riff on so many things in this episode…  The head noise getting loud as you grow, triggering others with your growth and light, getting out of our own way is half of the work on the path to success, playing small and staying ‘humble’.  An unscripted Britts Riffs is what I will be calling my solo eps!! Tune in for a vulnerable, relatable share on the inner workings of a lot of our psyches as we start to embody more light or 'things start going well for us'.

EP 8: identity and becoming with Britt & Krissy

What if your identity isn’t who you are… but who your nervous system learned to be? In this episode of The Science of Becoming, we unpack the psychology, neuroscience, somatics, and soul of identity, survival patterns, and personal transformation. From attachment wounds and neural wiring to neuroplasticity, ego death, and the uncomfortable process of becoming, this conversation explores how personality is often shaped by adaptation, not authenticity. We dive into why growth can feel threatening to the body, how repeated emotional states become identity, and why true change requires more than mindset work alone. If you’ve ever felt stuck in patterns that no longer feel like you, this episode will challenge the way you see yourself and who you’re capable of becoming.
