Episode 205: Water Rising – Your permission to be messy, radiant, and whole | Perfectionism, Trauma & Nervous System Healing

by | May 16, 2025 | Podcast | 0 comments

In this episode of Water Rising, I dive deep into a vulnerable and empowering truth: the transformational magic in getting it wrong. For so many of us—especially women—mistakes have been coded as dangerous, shameful, and even life-threatening to our nervous systems. But what if getting it wrong was actually an art form? A sacred practice of healing?

I share personal stories, nervous system insights, and one hilarious shower moment that helped me unlearn perfectionism. We talk about how society wires us to fear mistakes, how nervous system regulation changes everything, and how playing with imperfection can lead us back into joy, safety, and connection.

Let this episode be your permission slip to mess up, laugh about it, and live fully anyway.

Topics we explore:

-Why mistakes feel life-threatening to your body
-How perfectionism is a cultural and nervous system pattern
-Playful practices to rewire your response to failure
-Reclaiming your aliveness through messiness
-Turning trauma responses into joyful presence

MYSTIC, WISDOM KEEPER, SPIRITUAL MENTOR, COACH

Throughout my life I have been guided by the warrioress archetype, an independent female spirit whose primary purpose is to achieve freedom and sovereignty of her life. This was not always a conscious endeavor for me, yet she pulled at my heart and led me on adventures far and wide and wild. She has taught me to live by spirals and wheels and cycles. To live each day as a ritual, knowing that I am the source of my life. Everything comes FROM me and that my obstacles are actually the path to living an even greater and wilder existence. She has shown me that true LEADERS rally for and with life, not against it. So, now I live in devotion to a higher standard of LIFE for us all.
