Speaker 1 (00:00.666)

Welcome to Elevate Daily, the podcast for those ready to elevate their life one intentional day at a time. I'm your host, Alexia Ouskard, here to give you a permission slip to unapologetically savor the beauty and richness of life. Join me as we explore modern rituals, self-leadership, the gene keys, and the art of elevating your health, wealth, love, and leadership. It's time to elevate. Let's dive in.

Hello, hello and welcome back to Elevate Daily. I am your host, Alexia Usgaard and I am so enthused that you're here. Wherever this finds you today, I hope that this conversation wraps around you in all the ways you didn't even know you needed. This episode is part two of a deeply powerful conversation with the brilliant and grounded nervous system expert and somatic specialist,

Sarah Tacy. If you haven't yet tuned into part one, I highly recommend starting there as it lays such a potent foundation for what we explore today. If you're navigating stress, uncertainty, or feeling stretched at a growth edge, if you're being called to expand your capacity, whether for greater responsibility, deeper relational presence, or next level wealth, or if you're

Simply craving more nourishment in your leadership and life than part one is a must listen. And in that conversation, Sarah shared a reframe that genuinely shifted something in me and supported me with moving and also supported many of you who have sent in messages and shared with me the impact.

It supported us all with moving from the popular concept of nervous system regulation, which I've seen and how many of us have seen thrown around constantly, especially in the high performance spaces, into something more spacious. And that is resonance. It was one of those moments that made my whole body exhale. And so that episode was all about learning how to resource yourself.

Speaker 1 (02:10.336)

not by trying to manage or control your emotions, but by honoring your full range and learning how to truly meet yourself. And if you did tune into the episode, I hope that even me sharing that overview about the episode just gives you a moment to integrate even further what you received from everything Sarah shared with you. And today in part two, we go even deeper. We explore the power of co-regulation, sacred sisterhood, and the often unseen weight of hyper-independence.

especially for high functioning women. Who can relate to that? Sarah also shares incredibly grounded tools and rituals, which you know I love, that you can begin using right away. So whether you're holding a lot, navigating big transitions, or simply feeling like life is a lot right now, you're in the right place. We also explore one of her gene keys, gene key five, which moves from the shadow of impatience to the gift of patience.

and into the highest frequency, the city of timelessness. When I saw this as her magnetism code, I was not surprised as her presence to me is such a pure embodiment of this frequency, a living reminder to slow down, to exhale and to trust our divine timing. What I love most about this two-part podcast episode series is that it wasn't planned that way. We originally sat down to record one conversation.

And yet in the spirit of not rushing, of honoring depth and trusting resonance, this second half wanted its own space. So I hope that this episode meets you exactly where you are and serves you in the most soul nourishing way. So without further ado, let's dive on into this episode with Sarah Tacey.

Speaker 1 (04:02.626)

deep dive guys we vortex on we were drinking tea for hours and the moment you and I sat down, I could first off feel just this energy in you of just we're gonna be here. Which okay, now I told you I would totally go rogue. I'm gonna bring in actually your third Genki that I really wanted to share your magnetism code is Genki five, which goes from the shadow of impatience to the gift of patience.

to the city of timelessness. And just for context on this code in particular, this is the key code that we'll share with you who are aligned relationships in your life, who are aligned clients, who are client collaborators, who are the people who are of highest service in both how they show up in the world and how you show up in their presence. And when I think about you, I relate to being quite a patient person in many ways.

Yet what I struggle oftentimes is to feel that I can just really settle with another person and feel that frequency reflected back to me in a way where I just know that I don't have to rush to communicate. I don't have to rush to get through a concept. I just will never forget it. And I looked, that's why when I saw this was your magnetism code, I go, of course, because she literally is here to be a

attraction fields for everyone in the collective of what it means to actually embody patience, to trust divine timing and to be here for the nuance, to be here for the deep dive, and to remind people that it's safe to follow the patient way.

I have chills with that. It's a good reminder for me too. The reminder is following the patient way because of course there's a part of me that's like, what's next? What's this? And motherhood was the ultimate slow down and similar to my back injury where it was the release of everything I identified with.

Speaker 2 (06:10.478)

And overall, do like, I love being present with people. And if that is tied with patience, then I do have that in spades. I remember being part of a mastermind where everyone in that mastermind had these massive, beautiful, soul-led businesses and mine was much more like word of mouth and, you know, didn't have the 100,000.

Instagram followers and didn't have the things that these other ladies had and you know and book deals and all the things and One of them in particular at the first I Don't know is our second third time together and just said I am So happy you're here your presence Is the ultimate gift?

because it was like, do I have anything to say about how to build a funnel? How do you like, like, no. And I actually like, really do listen deeply. And if someone said something and something comes up six months later, my brain will weave the things from before. And I do love being deeply present with people. And again, I'm like, is that the same as patients? But

It's one of my like happiest places to be is to just be really there with another person.

Speaker 1 (07:38.528)

It's such a gift on the receiving end of it. Like I said, when I tune into your frequency, which is why when I look at someone's soul map, just laugh because again, it's so specific. I'm going, yeah, of course. Just of course she has that. Like that would have been if I had to guess one of the gene keys I would have guessed you had in your blueprint. That's one I figured had to be somewhere. So she just embodies that so deeply.

It has to be somewhere. And then when I saw it was your magnetism code of like actually your greatest divine filter. Because what I love is when anyone comes into your life who is in that impatient shadow, or makes you feel impatient, it's a good test for you to just feel inside of yourself to feel. And sometimes like going into so much of our conversation today doesn't necessarily mean like, reject the person all the time. Sometimes it is a bit of like, this person's activating this thing for myself to be brought back into my gift or

all of that. But for many people, the shadow is a good signal because I know in a lot of people, especially in leadership, they can find that they can get really stuck, like trying to attract a lot of clients or a lot of opportunities where they either feel that energy a lot, or the people they call in are that energy a lot. And then they think there's something almost wrong with it not feeling good for them. And so for you, a good discernment would just be like, do I feel like I'm in a pace where I feel patient?

with myself or I can trust the patient way. It doesn't mean they're all operating in your speed, but I would imagine even you and the gift in that woman giving you that reflection, I can see what the magic in that was, was she literally said, there's no dynamic where you're expected to be at any pace that's different than your own. Thank you for being here. You know, what a gift and what a good example, because it wasn't like, I...

Mm-hmm.

Speaker 1 (09:26.958)

I have to shift myself to be like anybody else. Or gotta like pretend that I wanna talk about funnels when I don't wanna talk about funnels, you know what I mean? Whereas how many people could feel the shadow of impatience could like hit and you could be like, well, let me come to you with my 15 set plan for how I'm going to be the best funnel expert in the world, you But you did it. You were like.

So just to clarify, if I'm feeling impatience in a relationship, are you saying that's often a sign that it's not a match? also said, I heard you say you don't have to push them away, but are you also just saying that that is actually, yeah, but that's a communication sign to myself of like, not aligned.

Yeah, data to contemplate like what's going on here. That's not feeling quite aligned. And again, like I said, sometimes it could be something within ourselves that we just need to shift, which there's no one better than you that I feel like would immediately have the discernment on whether that is. But also for many, it's fascinating because you can see, mean, probably even what you see with many clients is how many people work so hard to try to make a relational dynamic and pattern work when in a lot of ways it's the shadow pattern.

They are constantly trying to like fit the dynamics with certain people that are just playing out that shadow instead of going like, okay, if I move into like honoring my higher frequency of like moving through my impatience to my patients frequency, now what happens in this relational dynamic? And if it doesn't work from that energy, it's most likely a no. Moving into your journey of seeing the importance of co-regulation and the power of

that.

Speaker 2 (11:06.35)

you

Sacred Sisterhood, this is one of the things you and I bond over is how much you and I love Sacred Sisterhood. How much you and I will actually most, a lot of our DMs, you and I messaging each other being like, I love seeing you gathering with other women. I live to see you being juiced up by other women, you know? And so I would love to know your thoughts on co-regulation, why it's so important for women in particular.

And I think one little lingering nuance to that question though is also how do we know when we're co-regulating without codependency or meshing ourselves?

So where do I want to start? I want to start by saying that maybe seven years ago I had a gathering at my house because I do feel like I am so blessed with so many incredible women who are so generous to me. And I just, I mean, I feel this is an area of my life that I just

feel like it overflows. And I feel very lucky to have that. And I know that's not a case for a lot of people sometimes depending on where they live or belief systems. so I hosted this gathering because I was like, I know so many amazing people and I want them to know each other. we did this thing where each woman introduced her friend because what I love at weddings is I love the best man, maid of honor.

Speaker 2 (12:43.128)

father of the bride, like I love the speeches where people just love on each other. And I thought, would people really fully express and explain how magnificent they are, if on their own? Or like, what would it be like to have their friends say like, this is my friend, and here is what like, I love about them. And what I didn't realize was possibly the shadow there, people who felt insignificant next to others.

and somebody who said, wow, where I come from, it wouldn't be safe to be in a circle of women. And I hadn't really considered that. I had grown up being just like on this team, then that team, right? And so it was like all this team energy. later in life, I did eventually have hard female dynamics within a group and it super painful. was like, why am I experiencing this as like an older human? So.

What I want to say about co-regulation is that you can practice it with a tree, you can practice it with an animal, you can practice it, you know, I even think that when I lay like a starfish on the ground, you know, you're talking about an app for me, it's like star fishing on the ground, I can go like, okay, there's something stable beneath me. And so I'm stable, I'm like kind of co-regulating with something that is stable, but not alive. I mean, we could look at atoms and say everything's alive and vibrational.

And then maybe a tree where it's like, this has seasons and it may have wisdom that it wants to whisper and it's stable and it has water running through it. And so now I can correlate with that and move on to like animals, these places that we get to practice safe co-regulation and we get to see what it feels like. And then we start to get to notice where is there any healthy, safe example of that around us? And.

Then we get to practice in small ways without having to jump into like, okay, now I'm going to create a woman's group and I'm going to like this and I'm going to like, and, and there will be a feeling or a vibration that will become familiar. And the reason why co-regulation is important to build in, even it does not have to happen immediately is because trauma physiology is often that we felt powerless without choice and alone.

Speaker 2 (15:07.084)

We often were not alone when the trauma happened. And trauma physiology is not about the event, but how it lands in the body. did it like something bad could happen and we could find our way out of it and feel really empowered. It would not stay in our system the same way. So when we come out of hard times and we come out of hard times in community, it really helps to rewire a sense of safety and that we have a broader base of support. Like it's not all on us.

When our range of resonance is small, we have a story that feels true that it's no one's coming to get me, it's all on me. I have to do it myself, which sometimes can be life saving. So we won't say it was like bad or wrong. It can be life saving. As we grow our conditions, we start to see, we start to feel spirit. possibly, we start to know it as healthy relationships. And my husband and I work with somebody every Friday who will say,

I want you to call me if you start to feel dysregulated." And he said his phone is almost always silent because you're like, oh my gosh, does he have any boundaries? His phone is going to be ringing all the time, but most of the people he worked with are so hyper independent because most of us learned as kids, go up to your room and when you feel better, then come down. So many of us have learned all of the soothing and distracting that we can do on our own. And I think that one of the biggest bridges.

is learning to reach out. And so the same for Janine that I talked to you about, we have this code that we use when I teach people co-listening. I've always done it in eight minute segments. And now I've heard Simon Sinek talk about the science behind just eight minutes of sharing. And so if one of us writes to the other, do you have eight minutes? We know that it's like, hey, can you co-regulate with me? And it's a huge practice for me because I

will journal to myself. That's why yoga was so awesome for me for 15 years because like, I'll give myself a massage through my emotions. I will regulate through my breathing. I will learn new things about myself by doing twists and seeing from different perspectives. Like I can heal everything I need through my own practice. I do not need a therapist, a massage therapist or a friend. Thank you very much. So this idea.

Speaker 2 (17:30.882)

The idea of reaching out is like, whoa, it's so big. And you asked, how can you differentiate from codependency? Codependency, I often link with I'm okay when they're okay. And so I can see how someone could be just like not even aware of the other person and like constantly calling and needing somebody to fix them.

And so I would say that there is this place that even if you ask, is this out of love or out of fear, is it right? Like, you can keep asking these questions to start discerning. And the codependency that I know that's more familiar to me is I'm OK when you're OK. And so I start to say, like, can I be OK when I'm OK? And so this idea of even calling this man, like if it's an issue between Steve and I, my husband, and we call this man Jerry.

If I called Jerry, instead of Steve and I trying to find our okayness through the other dysregulated person, if we reach out and broaden our network, then we can stabilize outside from the person that we're having a hard time with and then come back together. Too often we're trying to do it within the unit of the same person or thing that was destabilizing in the first place. And it's not a recipe for

coming to a conclusion that feel like it's more of a win-lose often instead of a win-win scenario. So as we co-regulate, not just with our partners, but widen our base, it can be wildly supportive to a family unit if you have a wider base. Did that make sense? I hit upon a few things.

it so much because I wish this is like this is one of the types of info that I feel like would have been so revolutionary for me if I could I trust all divine timing but this is a piece that I wish my younger self knew because I think for myself I think back to so even the yoga story I in my earlier days unlike the hard times of school and things hard with my family going on I would go to hot yoga so I would go to core power yoga because it was

Speaker 1 (19:47.278)

hot and sweaty and no one could tell I was crying. You know, and I just think about I like think about that version of me and just how hard it was for her to feel safe to just be witnessed for fear of is it a burden on other people? So I think what's fascinating is you have these experiences and these stories about I don't want to reach out to my friend because what if they're so busy or what if they have this happening and then if your friend does have a lot on their plate.

it can bring up all these stories. Whereas in reality, I think it's like the two layers I feel in you is, can you get really honest about who are part of your support system network that are you have made a mutual agreement of the responsibility you're setting up? Because I think that's the other thing with friendship no one really wants to talk about is like your closest knit people, but you can't have that many of them.

There's a response, there is an actual energy of if that person calls me and says eight minutes, it's different than, you know, there's an energy of what are we in, right? Because there's also a level of them being in their own self responsibility, but then getting to this place of like, really desire the co-regulation, I know myself and here I am. And so I just really feel that like the energy of like actually taking a moment to think about who is your network of support.

Who can you ask? And I love this structure you just gave us all, which is like, can you create an agreement that's the eight minutes? And I think a big part, to give a bit of the, just to make sure I double click, is it basically that whoever is the one that's asking for it, then they get on the experience and they just are witness for eight minutes. There's nothing being no advice, no like telling them anything. it just that probably the big work too is just to be seen.

whether they just cry for eight minutes. that the assignment? Is that the ritual?

Speaker 2 (21:35.234)

Yeah, we're blessed. Like we definitely don't nail that. And we sometimes don't keep it right to the eight minutes. And I think what's useful is if you do keep it to the eight minutes, then people who are sensing any bit of like time scarcity, or whether it's like person like afraid to be too much for somebody else, or the person who's like, I don't know that I don't like have two hours here, like I have to get my kids to this and have this, it can put nice boundaries on so you can really feel like, do we want to keep this more boundary?

Do we want to have it more free flow? But a co-listen is 100 % you, if you're going to do it the real formal way, you set a timer and you don't look at each other. You actually sit shoulder to shoulder or back to back. And it's really important because when you're looking at each other, although it can be a really great way of connecting, when you don't look at each other, your body stops reading somebody else's body in the same way. So like, how are they feeling? How are they taking this? Are they judging me?

What are they about to say? And the person listening will often notice like how much they want to be like, yeah, I really feel that like the way we want to soothe as they're talking. And when we let people just talk without handing them a tissue without soothing, often they'll like have a top layer that they cover. Then you might run out of things to say and you don't fill it. And the beautiful thing is when you don't fill it,

there's another layer often that's there. And if you were to do the co-listening with a stay back, when it's over, you'd say, would you like a stay back? And you kind of weave together or crystallize the things you heard. And so someone might think, I just talked gibberish for eight minutes. And someone might weave it into like a sentence or two and be like, my God, it's all connected. Or I've had people say something back and I'm like, my gosh, I didn't realize that's what I was saying. Holy sh-

mind blowing that has been my mantra and I didn't even realize it and or, that's not what I meant. and so you get to clarify. so I almost always, if I have a retreat or a course, co-listing is always a part of it. but it has been a doorway into me being able to reach out to a friend. I started by reaching out to Jerry and then I started and I'm like, okay, I asked Janine like, Hey, this is a real edge for me.

Speaker 2 (24:01.1)

Would you be my partner? Can we try it? And then I have another friend who I perceive as busy with a lot of high-end relationships and a lot of that my thing is just, can I leave a voicemail? And I know that if she knows it's important, she's going to listen and get back to it. And so sometimes just leaving little voice memos for people so they can get to it in their own time and get back.

And sometimes just like saying it out loud and knowing that you're going to be witnessed. It's really, really big in the repatterning of relational health.

It's so big. I think people don't honor how hard it can be to say those big words. I need help. Right? I deeply need your support. Because it can feel so like, oh, am I being heavy? Am I being a weighted burden? And forgetting that the other person also is a sovereign being that can make their choice. But I know for myself, because that's definitely been more my air too, is like more of a hyperindependence tendency. And it's still something I'm very

and perfectly, perfectly navigating and looking to lean into more and more every day. But also realizing how meaningful it's been for people in my life when I actually have leaned in and asked and how much they've said, thank you. This makes me feel closer. Like this makes me feel like I really get to be with you and see you and be in that too. So it's just this energy of even deeper close.

And

Speaker 1 (25:35.702)

And so I really love that you named it. I also think a very important distinction, because we've played around with this a lot as well at retreats and different programs, is it's not advice in the say back. It's a reflection. So it's not about, which is why this is a great tool in relationships too. If you ever are like, I really want to tell my partner something, and I just need to know that it's not going to be interrupted, or they're going to immediately try to fix the situation.

I've definitely done this with Z as well, where it's just, but it's important to know the distinction, because I think we're so trained in much a lot of society to give advice, especially if you're a leader in many areas of your life. And it's not about fixing. It's just literally like, because you said that very clearly in the reflection, you just reflect back what you heard. And the crazy part is then to your point, sometimes someone can say, them just hearing it mirrored back and so much clarity.

Or sometimes they realize it's not what they actually meant. And there's actually a moment to deepen and clear, click, get clearer orders. Like you said, the different layers that show themselves just through the process. And I just wanted to double click that just for anyone. So that way they really feel that. Cause I feel like that's such a potent practice.

Vixens calls it accurate reflection. like she doesn't do, I don't think that she does the co-listening exercise, but just part of what we are trained in through alchemic alignment is accurate reflection. To reflect back what we're hearing, to crystallize, like it's part of the practice is not to let me tell you what I think your next best step is, but like what is their body saying or...

I was thinking that I was having memory challenges at one point and then she was like, I would love to reflect back to you. Like you can feel that way. And I would like to reflect back some of the things you just shared and we have together from a 25 year period that were very specific over time. And I was like, you know, and I have done that with my clients before, before I was in Alchemist Alignment either cause Don Stapleton and Amba Stapleton taught me the co-listening. And I remember

Speaker 2 (27:40.79)

a business, you know, it was 2008 and the market was collapsing. you know, was a lot of, I had a lot of big CEO clients and somebody was working through a really challenging situation and he shared it with me. And I did, I reflected back what I heard. I crystallized it and he was like, my God, that is such good advice. Thank you. And I just kind of laughed. I was like, I literally just, I gave him accurate reflection, right? Like I wove it together and handed it back to him in a

in different words in a more consolidated way. And so I think it just helps to show all of us that we have really beautiful inner wisdom that knows the way. And one other thing I've heard is when people have these conversations with spouses or friends, the difference between saying, yeah, I want advice, or I want to be heard. But what I've

heard updated from that is instead of like, just want you to listen, is to say I want to be understood. And so in that sometimes when we are, okay, they just want us to listen, we can feel really passive, we can lose interest, our monkey mind can take over and start having another conversation in our head of like what we want to say or what, you to say I want to feel understood engages our brains to say, can I understand them?

And I love that update. and just like, how am I engaged? Am I utilizing that? but I do, I do love that update of instead of like, want to, can you give me some advice or just listen? It could be like, I would love to be understood and just hear your, you know, that accurate reflection. You knew said I'm just loving cause you're, putting these things that people could possibly use. And so you've talked about the co-regulation.

And we've talked about using things that aren't human, but then when we do use human of giving eight minutes or like having a phrase or what you said is like, Hey, right now, as you're listening or after you're done, would it be helpful for you to write down a person or two? There's a theory, from Ray Casplino that if we have two layers of support and each layer has two layers of support. like, who are your two layers of support that you might reach out to to say like, Hey, do you have eight minutes? and then.

Speaker 2 (30:06.144)

You also earlier talked about, it be helpful for people before the podcast is over or directly after to write down your onramps? And we could try to differentiate too, is are these the things that help regulate me when I'm feeling dysregulated? Or are these the things, or are the onramps the things that are going to help me to do the things that I know I want to do, but are hard to do? So for me, the onramps are the second.

So maybe you'd have like three lists and the third list would be like, what are my best soothing strategies or things that help me get through the activation phases?

I love that distinction because to your point, I think it's the more people know where they're at at which moment. Because sometimes, like you said, you're in a moment where there's just so much happening. Or then if you're trying to like then be, quote, the best version of yourself, it's like, you're just going to tap out. And then that goes back to that big question you asked him, are you doing it from love or for proving versus like, okay, nope, I'm needing the just like

genuine, let me just self suit to bring myself baseline. And it's like these others that are, okay, all right. Like I love this example about the meditation, you actually gave me a good contemplation. So I remember I started with ecstatic dance. And then through that process, I got to the place where I could meditate and just sit and be in it. And even now, I go through phases because hashtag human experiencing where I'll notice there's periods of my life where I'm like, I don't feel like sitting in meditation. And then I get really curious with myself.

Because to your point, I always actually know when I meditate, it feels good for me. So then I'll go, hmm, all right, I'm in a season where I need to start with dance a little bit more. And I'll dance more. And then as I start dancing more, then I start naturally going, all right, let's sit for four minutes after dance. And then I build that resilience. And those four minutes will feel pretty hectic for that moment. But then before I know it, four minutes goes to eight and then eight goes to whatever. And next thing I know, I've just like naturally

Speaker 1 (32:17.664)

I love that nuance you named. I just love it. It's so important. It feels really important to land is that it's not always going to feel like easy brazy when you're really honoring and taking care of your nervous system. And there's nothing wrong with you. If you're going through that.

Yeah, you've said the phrase so many times, of course. Like, of course that's going to happen. Like, of course it's not all going to feel good. And, and I can choose ecstatic dance and right. And, and, and, and, and I've heard this Gilbert talk about as she moved through grief, like first she took two years to travel out of, you know, like with just a backpack on and, that there was no timeline and that actually focusing on joy helped her with the grief.

Right. it's so some people that'd be like, that's bypassing it. But sometimes it's also like, and when we feed our systems with this blueprint energy, it can help to digest what is so hard. And I think that the movement to like there, I think all of us, Janga, my understanding is, was that was trying to get these 12 year old boys to be able to sit and meditate. So let's do like one to three hours of really focused, you know, same exact routine every single day.

so that then they might be able to sit a little bit. have these energies like the fight flight, self-fawning, we have these energies that need to be moved. And so let's do it.

Honor the fun, you know? Honor it, right? I just think about moments with myself where I'm like, I have to play games with myself. I just play games with myself, y'all. I literally will be like, all right, Chick has to sit down and do her taxes. Okay, I'm gonna make an epic playlist. And then I put on a playlist and I just tell myself it makes it feel better. You know, there's just these cute, playful things. And I just remind myself, I'm like, I

Speaker 2 (33:50.178)

Like, it's-

Speaker 2 (34:13.293)

You know what? taxes today, as you said, though.

She's like, shoot, this is one of those examples. I know. You know what I mean? that's something I think, something I would really name that stands out to me so much from this conversation is can we honor that we are, through even someone listening to this conversation, I know you're someone who is committed to being awake and being conscious of who you are on the journey of the human experience, which in of itself is most of the magic and to know like you said.

Of course, like, can we all just find peace and knowing there's nothing wrong with us when we go through the moments, when we feel activated, when things don't feel good, when we have multiple emotions at the same time. And I think as we just wrap up, I would love is, is there one like final truth you would love to leave if we've got a woman listening who's feeling like right now she's holding it all. She feels like the weight's on her, on her shoulders. She's carrying a lot.

What would you love for her to know about how to cultivate safety in a harbor system in this moment?

Speaker 2 (35:21.848)

There's nothing wrong with you. You were never meant to do it alone. The system is not set up in a way that our ancestors once did.

to your time, the small steps that feel like are not going anywhere will lead to the quantum leaps, will lead to the life of you dream of. And in this moment, if it's possible to find any opening, any crack that gives you a sense of awe or choice, whether it's through a pause.

Speaker 2 (35:59.564)

whether it's through recognition in nature, the smallest thing, whether it is through playing music and dancing. Just know that your pleasure and your resourcing is a gift to all. There's a phrase, self-care is the basis of community care. And so your wellbeing matters. And if you don't feel great, it's not your fault. But there's a saying, it's not your fault, but it is your responsibility.

in the most tender ways, can we take responsibility for that? For ourselves, yeah.

I think so. think if I were to shorten it, self-care is the basis of community care.

Just taking a big exhale as I feel you as I feel your truth just pulsing through. And I know that for those who are going to be wanting to run to find you to connect further, they can find your website, all these links will be in the show notes. Your website is a key spot to check out your Instagram is a spot I know you have an incredible programmed program program called resource.

Yes. So probably from listening to this conversation, you have a, you know, just a decent feel of the work I do and what I believe. This is more specifically for mothers. I love women in general. And the only reason why I niche it towards mothers is because I often like, oh, and this is how I practice this nervous system tool with my kids. And, oh, when my kids are

Speaker 2 (37:44.778)

having a hard time. How can I care for myself? And how can I be okay when they're not okay? Instead of overly merging. So there are some things that felt really specific to this role in this cycle in life. I've just recently finished this last go of it. And so the next one I believe will be in September. So people are interested in learning more, they can go to my website.

and get on the wait list for it. It doesn't sign you up for the program. It just gets you on the wait list so I know who is interested. And then I also have a free program called 21 Days of Support, totally free, just little ways to weave in nervous system support for your body. And I have a podcast called Threshold Moments that is on a pause because I get to choose, but season three will be starting up soon.

goodness, I'm definitely going to go and download your 21 days of support. I'm like, that sounds juicy. And yes, I am so grateful for this conversation. Thank you for weaving with me. Thank you for showing up. So devoted to your soul's work. If there's anything that makes me smile more than most other things, it's just witnessing someone who's living out their codes.

and doing it with such grace like you are, with such a commitment to truth like you are, and with so much care and love and such a generous spirit. I am just so grateful to know you, to walk with you, to drink tea together. And I'm so enthused for everyone who's had the opportunity to tap into your frequency and your wisdom. And this is just the taster of all of Sarah's magic. So definitely go check her out.
