Fitness Coach Exposes Why You're Working Out Wrong (Stop Wasting Time at the Gym) - Gail Mitch

"Selfish" Is the Most Dangerous Word in Self-Care | Jesse Miller

Jesse Miller is a craniosacral therapist and exercise physiologist who believes we've been doing emotional regulation completely wrong — and it's breaking us. In this episode of The Brandon Goodyear Show, Jesse sits down with Brandon for a wide-ranging conversation about why humming can literally rewire your nervous system, the hidden danger of outsourcing your self-awareness to an Apple Watch, and the controversial idea that we should actually be MORE emotionally unregulated — not less. Jesse opens up about growing up in a family where caring for others meant ignoring yourself, the generational belief that self-care is selfish, and the moment during the pandemic when she wrote "I don't know what emotion is" in a notebook — and everything changed. They explore how scared and happy are the same physiological response, why your exhale is more important than your inhale, the connection between breath and heart rate variability, and how to find joy in movement instead of optimizing your way into hating exercise. Whether you're a biohacker glued to your Oura ring, a parent trying to raise emotionally healthy kids, or someone who just feels stuck — this conversation will give you a completely new framework for connecting with yourself. 💬 What's one emotion you were taught to suppress growing up?
