(and what your nervous system is trying to say)
You’ve done the mindset work. ✅
You’ve mastered time blocking, built offers, scaled the income, supported dozes—if not hundreds—of people. ✅✅✅
And still…
… Something inside keeps collapsing under the weight of it all. You feel like you’re always one launch away from breakdown, one client away from overwhelm, one growth spurt away from complete burnout.
It’s not because you’re not capable. It’s not because you’re not worthy or good enough.
It’s because your nervous system is screaming for help.
Your “status quo” became dysregulation. And no amount of strategy can override a body stuck in survival mode.
Meet Your Body’s Secret CEO: Your Nervous System
Here’s what I need you to understand: Every decision you make in business—from pricing an posting and launching and leading—is filtered through one powerful system.
Yes, you guess it: your nervous system.
When you feel clear, calm, grounded—you make confidence and aligned decisions.
When you’re dysregulated? You default to survival every damn time.
This isn’t you “getting in your own way”. This isn’t self sabotage. This is your brain and your body doing what it is meant to do: keep you alive.
And here is the kicker—your nervous system doesn’t know the difference between a saber-tooth tiger and a sales call.
Why Your Body Keeps You Small—Even When Your Mind Wants More
Your nervous system filters every experience through past data, through what it knows to be “safe”. So when you’re dysregulated, you become reactive:
- You’ll undercharge so you sign that new client (even though you felt all the red flags – I know, I’ve done it!)
- You’ll say yes to misaligned opportunities because… well, what if you never get another opportunity again?
- You’ll hustle your way to burnout because… well, isn’t your worth tied with how many hours you put in and how busy you are?
- You avoid the visibility that would scale your business because being seen feels dangerous (“what if I misspeak?” “What would they think?” etc etc etc)
This is not a mindset flaw. This is simple biology.
And this is the exact reason why no amount of affirmations, vision boards, or “money mindset work” can override a nervous system stuck in fight, flight, freeze or fawn.
The Science That Changes Everything
Dr. Stephen Porges’ Polyvagal Theory explains that our autonomic nervous system has three primary states:
- Ventral Vagal (Regulated State)
- What it feels like: Connected, creative, confident, at peace.
- How you show up in business: Clear decision making, authentic leadership, magnetic presence.
- Your capacity: Can hold big visions, navigate challenges with grace, receive abundance naturally.
- Sympathetic (Fight-or-Flight State)
- What it feels like: Hyper-vigilant, reactive, constantly “on”.
- How you show up in business: Hustle culture, people-pleasing, chronic overwhelm.
- Your capacity: Limited bandwidth, reactive decisions, sustainability issues (overcommit)
- Dorsal Vagal (Freeze/Shutdown State)
- What it feels like: Numb, disconnected, collapsed, dissociated.
- How you show up in business: Procrastination, isolation, avoiding growth opportunities.
- Your capacity: Minimal energy, creative blocks, resistance to expansion.
Here’s what the research show us:
Breathwork & Regulation
- Research published int eh Cyprus Journal of Medical Sciences found significant decreases in cortisol levels after 45 minutes of breathing exercises
- A comprehensive meta-analysis in Scientific Reports showed breathwork was associated with lower levels of stress than control conditions, with a significant small-to-medium effect size
- Studies demonstrate that diaphragmatic breathing training over 10 weeks resulted in significantly lower cortisol levels and higher sustained attention rates
Decision-Making Under Stress
- Research shows that high HRV (Heart Rate Variability) is linked with greater executive function, better decision-making, and emotional regulation in healthy individuals.
- A systematic review found that psychological stress has significant effects on decision-making, with the cortisol response to stress being a key modulating factor.
- Studies demonstrate that high HRV reflects proper emotion regulation, decision-making, and attention, while low HRV reflects the opposite.
The Wealth Connection
- Research shows that stress exposure influences basic neural circuits involved in reared processing and learning, while also biasing decisions towards habit and affecting risk-taking propensity.
- Studies specifically examining entrepreneurs stress found that perceived entrepreneurial stress significantly impacts decision-making and business resilience.
- A meta-analysis found that stress management interventions (including mindfulness and breathing practices) are effective at changing cortisol levels in healthy adults.
Your breakthrough is your breath work.
Unless you’re consistently accessing ventral vagal regulation, your business strategy will always be reactive. You’ll always be building from a foundation of survival instead of sovereignty.
