Does every task on your to-do list feel as equally urgent and like a threat to your survival? In this week's episode, Gervase dives deep into the pattern of over-functioning that keeps so many women stuck in perpetual stress. You'll learn why your nervous system gets locked in high alert and overdrive, even for unimportant tasks such as the laundry. And how this cycle of perpetual doing and achieving causes burnout and a never-ending sense of “psychotic urgency.” And to help you rewire these patterns, Gervase shares practical steps such as how to reconnect to your body, slow down and create moments of calm even in the chaos of modern life.

Watch this episode now to discover:

  • The biggest indicator that you’re an over-functioner and how this “psychotic urgency” prevents you from being, enjoying and living life

  • Why your brain can't relax when it’s stuck in overfunctioning without signals from your body first (and how this creates a chicken-and-egg problem for over-functioners)

  • The real cost of constantly operating like a computer instead of honoring your HUMAN need for rhythm, rest and pleasure

  • A simple 4-step practice to interrupt the overfunctioning pattern when you feel yourself spiraling

  • The narcissistic-like belief many of us have that unknowingly depletes your energy (and how to contribute without sacrificing yourself)

  • How to create 30-second intervals throughout your day to tune into your body’s wisdom and gradually rewire your nervous system
