Ep19 | The Urban Myth of Slow Living & Stress Reduction

We’ve all heard the mantra: slow down, savor the moment, live slowly.It sounds beautiful. But what if the way “slow living” is being sold is actually making you feel more guilt, anxiety, and less calm?

In this episode, I’m flipping the script on slow living.

I’ll take you inside:

* Why the Instagram version of slow mornings and curated rituals doesn’t fit real life (and how that gap between expectation and reality is where stress sneaks in).

* My own story of living both extremes, the days of yoga and sunshine rituals in Bangkok expat life vs. the messy, rushed mornings of motherhood and real life.

* What regulation actually looks like: not perfection, not one pace, but presence and choice.

Think Bruce Lee’s wisdom: Be like water.Fast. Slow. Still. Flowing. Adapting to what life actually asks of you.

And if life feels like it’s rushing faster than your nervous system can keep up, I’ve created something that can help — The 5-Day Uncertainty Detox.
