Description

Ever tell yourself, “I’ll just check one thing…” and then—bam—you’ve lost 45 minutes and your kid is now covered in flour? Yeah, me too.

In this short episode, I’m getting real about the actual reason this keeps happening. It’s not just a discipline issue—and you’re not failing. It’s your nervous system trying to keep you safe in what feels predictable: work.

Inside, I share:

  • What’s really going on when you can’t step away from your business brain

  • A practical nervous system reset that works in the moment

  • The question I now ask when I’m tempted to “just check one thing” (and how it brings me back to presence)

This one’s for the high-achieving mama who’s so done with the guilt spiral.

💌 Want the free training that walks you through how to break this pattern and finally feel peace in your body—not just in your business?

DM me the word PEACE on Instagram @CoachRachelFernandez or email me at rachel@naturalwaymama.com and I’ll send it your way.
