What if losing tolerance isn't a problem, but an invitation to be more sensitive to our truths? And, if we do take active measures (through hormone support or nervous system work) to improve our range of tolerance, can we use that to stay steady in our selves while standing up for what really matters? In this mini-musing, Sarah explores the deeper meaning of "tolerance" through the lenses of perim...

What happens when you are no longer in crisis, but you are not yet fully yourself? Most nervous system conversations start at the bottom — trauma, shutdown, survival mode. This one starts in the middle. That in-between place where you have done real work, you can see the progress, and somehow it still feels harder than you thought it would by now. In this episode I sat down live with my Juice memb...

Today's episode is for you if you're in the midst of a threshold and wondering how you'll make it through. When certain parts of our identity are stripped away, we go into the fertile void. In that space, we may not be able to find the rhyme or reason why it's happening, but I promise that the darkness enriches us all the same.

I once heard from a teacher that awe might be one of the first reflexes we have as babies: eyes wide, breath held in wonder, taking in the world for the very first time. I haven't found a study to prove it, but it  feels  true—the impulse to point, to name, to exclaim,  "Look at that! And that over there!"  The small hand tugging toward something marvelous, seemingly ordinary, yet entirely new. Wh...

So many of us crave expansion — more capacity, more visibility, more money, more love. But expansion without contraction is like inhaling without exhaling. It's not sustainable.
