02. How To Regulate Your Nervous System With Somatic Tools

07. What Neuro-affirming Care Looks Like In Real Life

You can do everything “right” and still feel like your brain is fighting you. That’s where neuro-affirming care changes the whole picture, and licensed professional counselor Nicolle Wargo-Boswell makes it tangible.  We talk about autism, ADHD, nervous system regulation, and why so many neurodivergent adults get mislabeled as only anxious or depressed when the real driver is overload, masking, and burnout.  Nicolle shares her own late diagnosis, her path from theology and trauma work into private practice, and the core idea she brings to clients and therapists alike: work with your brain and body, not against them. We also get honest about neurodivergent motherhood and postpartum mental health. Nicolle describes how pregnancy and hormones can shift medication response, how nursing can complicate treatment choices, and why sensory overwhelm can make postpartum feel unbearable in ways that standard checklists never capture. We discuss traumatic birth, the shame so many moms carry, and why support should not start only when things fall apart, whether that support is talk therapy, somatic therapy, or other body-based care. Finally, we dig into why diagnosis can still matter as an adult: not as a label, but as language, self-trust, and a roadmap to practical accommodations.  Learn more about Nicolle and her work: https://www.pursuing-hope.com/ [https://www.pursuing-hope.com/] Connect with Nicolle on IG: https://www.instagram.com/pursuing_hope/ [https://www.instagram.com/pursuing_hope/]  You can learn more about my work here: https://remotheringmamas.com/ [https://remotheringmamas.com/] Let's connect on IG: https://www.instagram.com/remotheringmamas [https://www.instagram.com/remotheringmamas]

06. You Can Build A Business That Feels Good

Burnout doesn’t always show up as a dramatic crash.  Sometimes it’s quieter: a beautiful life, a growing business, a “dream” location, and a constant feeling of rushing, heaviness, and never being done.  That’s exactly where productivity mentor Anne Rajoo found herself, and it’s what led her to create Peaceful Productivity, a grounded approach to getting results without overworking yourself into the ground.  We talk through Anne’s journey from Germany to London to Mauritius, from a tourism career to rebuilding after COVID, and how motherhood intensified the pressure to do everything alone.  Along the way, we explore the identity questions so many moms and entrepreneurs carry: Who am I now? What do I actually want? Why does success feel so exhausting?  Anne shares why typical productivity advice often fails high performers and caregivers, and how a calmer, more sustainable framework can change the way you work.  If you’re craving work life balance, sustainable productivity, and a definition of success that actually feels good, this conversation gives you language and tools to start.  If this resonates, subscribe, share it with a friend who’s carrying too much, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.  What part of PEACE do you need most right now?

05. Calm Your Racing Mind & Relieve Anxiety

Your mind is sprinting ahead, replaying conversations, stacking to-do lists, and pulling you out of your body.  I made this guided grounding and breathwork practice for that exact moment, when you feel disconnected from the present and you just want your nervous system to stop sounding the alarm.  If you’ve been living in survival mode, calm can feel unfamiliar, even unsafe, so I name the sensations that can come up like tingles, emotion, or lightheadedness and why lying down can help.  From there, we move into a steady rhythmic breathing designed to quiet racing thoughts and support stress relief through the body, not willpower.  If anxiety has been running your life, this is a short, practical way to come home to yourself and remember that you can be held and supported.  If it helps, subscribe, share this with a friend who’s overwhelmed, and leave a review with the moment that made you exhale.

04. When Good Moms Feel Bad: Befriending Your Anger & Healing Your Parts

Your baby is precious… so why do you sometimes feel panic, regret, or a flash of rage that scares you?  In this conversation, I sit down with Jessica Tomich Sorci, a level three IFS certified therapist specializing in maternal mental health, to name the feelings many mothers hide and to explain why they actually make sense. Jessica shares her own turning point in early motherhood, when love for her child lived alongside insomnia, terror, and the feeling that her old self was gone. From there, we get practical about support. Jessica breaks down why postpartum depletion is normal, why new moms are meant to be held by a village, and what to do when you are far from family or your “help” is complicated. We also dive into Internal Family Systems therapy and the Mom Parts Method, including how “parts” differ from emotions and why labeling parts as bad fuels shame.  Jessica explains common mom parts like self-doubt, regret, and the devoted caregiver, then goes deep on mom rage as a protective part that shows up when boundaries and needs have been ignored for too long.  If you’ve been wondering whether you’re failing, this conversation offers a kinder frame and a clearer path forward.

03. The Hidden Metamorphosis Of Becoming A Mother

Your life doesn’t just “add a baby.” Your whole system rewires.  We’re talking about matrescence, the profound transformation a woman goes through when she becomes a mother, and why it can feel like you’ve turned into a completely different person overnight.  We dig into the biological changes of motherhood, including intense hormonal shifts and maternal brain adaptations that help you prioritize connection, protection, and bonding.  Then we go deeper into what I see as the most overlooked upgrade: the nervous system recalibration.  If you’ve wondered why you can’t multitask the way you used to, why your intuition feels louder, or why your sensitivity and boundaries have intensified, you’re not imagining it. Your body is optimizing for safety and attunement, even when society keeps demanding productivity. We also explore the psychological identity shift, the grief that can come with outgrowing your old self, and the way matrescence can shape a new kind of leadership that’s collaborative, intuitive, and connection-centered.  Finally, we talk relationships, friendships, and the strange way time bends in postpartum, including the mantra that carried me: “the days are long, but the years are short.”  If this resonates, subscribe, share it with a mother who needs the words, and leave a review so more matriarchs can find this conversation.
