In Episode 6 of Courage & Purpose, I’m joined by Cristina Nicolau, a Licensed Associate Counselor and OCD Specialist at NOCD. Cristina shares powerful insights into the connection between the mind and body, and how understanding your nervous system can help you overcome fear, anxiety, and limiting beliefs.
We dive deep into how high-achievers often bypass their emotions in favor of overthinking and perfectionism, and how this can lead to burnout. Cristina offers actionable strategies to break these cycles by reconnecting with your body, regulating your nervous system, and embracing discomfort as a pathway to growth.
What You’ll Learn:
The role of your nervous system in processing fear and anxiety.
How to recognize avoidance patterns and take small steps toward courage.
The power of mindfulness and somatic practices in healing.
How curiosity can lead to new ways of thinking, behaving, and thriving.
Practical tips to stop overthinking and start taking aligned action.
💬 Quote of the Episode: "Your nervous system is always looking to keep you safe, but true growth happens when you step into the discomfort and show your body it’s okay."
