Is there a gut protocol sitting in your inbox right now, or a supplement order still in the box on your counter? If you’ve been calling yourself lazy or undisciplined for not starting, this episode offers a more accurate explanation.
Dr. Heather explains functional freeze, a nervous system state that lets you keep up with work, family, and every deadline while the one thing that’s just for you stays untouched. She shares her own story of staying stuck for months on a decision she already knew she needed to make, and explains why years of protocols that didn’t work can teach your body that hope is risky.
She also covers how this same protective state affects digestion, and why more willpower tends to keep you stuck. You’ll walk away with five simple ways to start moving again, gently.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
The three nervous system states and what freeze actually is
How functional freeze hides behind productivity
Why repeated failed protocols make starting again so hard
How your nervous system state affects digestion
Five small steps to help you get unstuck
