Shift Human Performance Coaching

🚨 Hot take: You don’t need another supplement - you probably need another hour of sleep. 😅

So many people are trapped in what I call The Optimization Trap because they’re seeking solutions with:
✅ more supplements
✅ more trackers
✅ more protocols
✅ more wellness hacks

But you may not realize that you are completely overlooking the basics that move the needle most.

In this week’s episode, we’re talking about why doing MORE might actually be making you feel WORSE - and how to simplify your health, reduce stress, and focus on what ACTUALLY matters.

Because some people are stressing themselves into dysregulation trying to become healthier. 😬

🎧 New episode of Making Shift Happen is live now wherever you get your podcasts.

Save this for the next time Instagram or your favorite influencer convinces you that your life will change if you buy one more supplement with their discount code. 😂

Do you feel this, too? I don’t think growth should EVER be sped up (it’s never on a “timeline” anyways), but these last few weeks feel like they’ve happened in hyper speed in some ways. 🚀

I have several clients who are also describing to me how much more expansion they’re feeling the past few weeks in May! Together, we’ve been exploring a lot of core values, routines, ways to take care of ourselves, and adjacent topics for self-nurturing and exploration, and I couldn’t be more stoked for them.

I always find it so interesting when many of us seem to be experiencing the same thing together. 🥰 It helps foster a sense of community that is unbeat.

Have you felt any internal shifts lately? Do you have a community to lean on while you navigate these shifts?

P.S. It also may not help that I’ve been listening to ’s latest album for the month of May 😆😮‍💨 Talk about all the feels.

🚨 New podcast episode: Are You High-Functioning, but Actually Exhausted? 😅

You probably think nervous system dysregulation has to look dramatic. It doesn’t. 🙈

You’re likely:
✔ functioning
✔️ paying bills on time
✔ working
✔ training
✔ handling responsibilities… but you’re wondering why you’re feeling exhausted ALL the damn time.

In this episode, we’re talking about:
🧠 subtle nervous system signs people ignore
🧠 why high-achievers normalize stress
🧠 why your body may feel “on” all the time
🧠 and practical ways to start regulating your system to get you back to a healthier baseline for you.

The best part? You only need to make small shifts to get back to your baseline. Let me show you how. 😘

Do you ever feel like you can never fully relax?

You’re probably just stuck in “GO mode.” 🫠

Let me help. 🫶

If you feel:
✔ exhausted all day (or in the afternoon)
✔ wide awake at night
✔ like your brain won’t shut off
✔️ like you use your phone to “unwind” all the time

Welcome to the club! 😅

Kidding aside, this is what we call “tired but wired” and it isn’t any fun.

It’s most often a nervous system/stress management problem.

The good news? You don’t need to do a full life overhaul. You just need to:
✔ downshift from a stress state more often
✔ reduce constant stimulation and phone use (especially before bed)
✔ give your brain a chance to freaking rela # #

🎧 Listen to this recent episode because it might explain a LOT.

If you want help actually applying this to your training + life (without overthinking everything), apply for 1:1 coaching at the link in my bio or comment or DM me the word COACH. I gotchu. 👊

Oof, are things just heavy for a lot of folks right now or what? 😮‍💨 Because my team is f e e l I n g it. I am, too, so you’re not alone in this. 😉👯‍♀️

During challenging times, it’s nice to lean on some words of inspiration to help ease the ache a bit - this is when I lean particularly heavily on Pema Chödrön’s words. Her insight and perspective have carried me through many trials over the past 25+ years, so perhaps these words find you when you most need them. 💜✨

It’s a reminder that things fall apart. Then they come back together again. And that’s pretty much on repeat. The ease comes in knowing this and also learning to ride the waves of falling apart and coming back together again along the way. 🌊🏄‍♀️

Learn to ride the waves of emotions that pop up and to F E E L these waves instead of tamping them down, ignoring them, or fleeing from them altogether. Your nervous system actually NEEDS to feel the emotions (and feelings emerging from said emotions) in order to process all of the sh*t you’re going through.

The next time a feeling (perhaps unwanted) emerges, notice it. Name it. Let it course through your body. Don’t run from it. What does it bring up for you? Just know that things are ever-changing and will come back together again soon enough…

Love you, mean it. 🫶
