In this episode of the Wild Grace Podcast, host Malika Ford dives deep into one of the most overlooked pillars of wellbeing — nervous system regulation.
With 43% of Australians experiencing mental health challenges, we're talking about stress and anxiety more than ever — but are we actually addressing the root cause? Malika breaks down how your nervous system controls everything from your hormones and libido to the micro decisions that shape your wealth, relationships, and quality of life.
She shares her personal journey with Blue Lotus, emotional maturity, and what it truly means to move through life from a place of safety and regulation rather than survival and reaction.
In this episode:
- Why cortisol blocks all other hormones in the body
- How a dysregulated nervous system affects libido and pleasure
- The link between anxiety, the fawn response, and arousal
- Making decisions from a regulated vs. survival state
