Description

EP:110 On this episode of Thrive Like a Parent Podcast, I discuss what it's like to come out of a prolonged "fight or flight" mode, sharing my personal experiences of exhaustion and the emotional lows that follow.


It feels like coming down from a marathon—completely draining but necessary for healing.It is so important to rest and take care of yourself , even when it feels unproductive.


This is a reminder that healing takes time, and it's crucial to be patient and gentle and kind to yourself during this recalibration of the nervous system.
