48: Why Your Mindset Work Isn’t Creating the Change You Want

You’ve journaled until your wrist hurts. You’ve repeated affirmations like a good student. You’ve got the vision board, the podcast playlists, the books stacked beside your bed…

And yet, when you finally clear a weekend just for you, you spend half of it anxious and scrolling, with a gnawing feeling that you should do something more productive. You let someone in - just a little - and then you find yourself pulling back, suddenly overwhelmed and convinced that it’s just not going to work. And what about that time when you got a financial windfall, and you walk around for a walk feeling a little nauseous.

If any of this sounds familiar, this episode will help you stop judging yourself for those responses, and start making sense of what’s actually going on beneath the surface. We’re talking about nervous system contraction, capacity, and the missing piece in how your body might still be bracing against the very life you’re trying to step into.

➡️What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The real reason why mindset work and manifesting often don't stick (even when you're doing all the right things)
• How subtle nervous system contractions sabotage your ability to receive, hold, and sustain abundance
• Why you can’t out-think scarcity if your body still feels like it’s not safe to have more
• The difference between regulation and embodiment (and why that distinction matters)

➡️Key Takeaways:

• Calling in abundance is about capacity more so than about mindset.
• If your body is not on board, you’ll keep sabotaging what you’re trying to manifest.
• Visualization, affirmations, and mindset work are beautiful but incomplete without nervous system safety.
• You can’t create an expansive life while living in contraction.
