What if the anxiety you feel isn’t just in your mind, but stored in your body?

In this episode, we go deep with Sherri from Connected Being Co as she shares how nervous system healing and breathwork can help you regulate your stress. Process trauma, and show up in your life with more calm, clarity, and connection.

We talk about everything from breathwork myths and burnout recovery to ex-prisoner rehabilitation and parenting in the age of emotional awareness. Whether you’re a business owner, a parent, or just someone who finds themselves overwhelmed and exhausted, this one’s for you.

💥 Big lessons?

• Why your anxiety might actually be fear in disguise
• How breathwork creates “safe stress” that makes you more resilient
• The real link between childhood trauma and autoimmune disease
• How checking in with your breath can change your day (and your life)

This episode isn’t just about wellness, it’s a wake up call. You’ll walk away with practical ways to tap into your breath, rewire your stress response, and start healing what’s beneath the surface.

🎧 Listen now for a warm, wise, and wildly honest conversation about nervous system health, self awareness, and taking responsibility for how you move through the world.

What happens when the worst has already happened?

In this powerful follow-up, Ashe Hornsby returns to the Inner Sanctum to deliver the raw, unfiltered truth about what it really takes to survive the unthinkable—and come back stronger.

From losing her partner, her business, and almost herself, Ashe shares how she navigated grief, burnout, legal battles, and letting go of the fight. We talk rebuilding from a literal fire, running a business in a shed during Covid, opening (and closing) a café, and learning when it’s time to surrender instead of push.

💥 Big lessons?

• The difference between surviving and actually living
• Why boundaries matter more when everything is burning
• How slowing down became Ashe’s greatest power move

Whether you're in the thick of it or climbing your way back, Ashe’s story will remind you that resilience isn’t always loud—it’s choosing to keep going, even when no one sees it.

🎧 Listen now for a brutally honest, heartbreakingly funny, and deeply inspiring look behind the scenes of rebuilding.
