Overwhelm in Motherhood Part 2: How to Break Free from the Freeze Response
In Part 2 of Overwhelm In Motherhood, we explore the freeze response - the nervous system state where overwhelm lives - and that can leave mothers feeling shut down, numb, or paralyzed. While freeze can feel like a place of shame or failure, it’s also a clear message from our body - we just have to learn to listen to what she’s saying.
This episode dives into the nervous system and looks at what’s really happening beneath the surface when we’re in overwhelm, how the freeze response shows up in motherhood, and why it can be so hard to thaw ourselves out. We’ll explore gentle ways to create safety, mobilize our system, and begin to stoke our inner fire - so we can return to connection, personal power, and vitality.
