Redefining Us
This podcast is all about redefining what it means to be a woman in today's culture where women are breaking those glass ceilings and coming into their own. In this podcast we will be exploring womanhood in all its facets, including sexual desire, parenthood, relationships with one another, pregnancy, postpartum, our relationships with our bodies, the media, and more. So if you're like me and want to learn, grow, heal and break those freaking ceilings please tune in and join the conversation ladies.
Tune in every other week to hear our guests and myself share information about mental health, their personal stories and other interesting topics that relate to being a woman.
Your host Stephanie Konter-O’Hara is a mom, an entrepreneur, a therapist, a woman that enjoys exploring new things and ways of thinking.

14: The Connection Between Disordered Eating and Nervous System Dysregulation with Ashlyn Burnett
What if your struggles with food have nothing to do with food itself? In this episode of Redefining Us, Ashlyn Burnett, a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach, shares the powerful connection between the nervous system and our relationship with food.
Ashlyn shares how polyvagal theory explains the different states of the nervous system and how these states influence eating behaviors. From the fight-or-flight urge to restrict or obsess over food to the shutdown response that leads to binge eating and disconnection, she breaks down why so many women feel trapped in cycles of control, guilt, and emotional eating.
There is a way out though. Through nervous system regulation, inner healing, and somatic work, Ashlyn teaches how to find freedom from food where eating becomes intuitive, nourishing, and no longer a source of anxiety or shame.
