Episode 6 — The Nervous System Revolution: Reclaiming Safety in a World on Fire
If your chest feels tight, your scroll never ends, and you’re tired of reacting from panic, this episode is your map back to yourself. Briony Montgomery, somatic therapist and creator of The Unfuckwithable Woman, takes you inside the intelligence of your nervous system and shows how regulation becomes presence, choice, and power—especially when the world is burning.
We name what so many women are living: collective trauma fatigue and functional freeze. We unpack the polyvagal map—ventral (connection), sympathetic (mobilisation) and dorsal (shutdown)—and how these states quietly drive your day: the sudden snap, the people-pleasing “yes,” the checked-out numbness, the 2am overthinking. You’ll learn how to track your state, meet it with compassion (not shame), and re-route back to connection.
Crucially, we distinguish sacred rage from dysregulated anger. When held in a regulated system, rage is not destruction—it’s direction. It builds boundaries, protects what’s sacred, and fuels culture change without burning you out.
Inside the episode:
How to recognise dysregulation in real life (and what your body is trying to protect).
Micro-practices to ground during conflict, headlines, parenting stress and work pressure.
Why regulation ≠ being calm—it’s dynamic, responsive, and fiercely alive.
What it actually means to be unfuckwithable: rooted, discerning, and present—even when your voice shakes.
If you’re ready to stop outsourcing your safety to systems that keep failing you—and instead root into your body’s wisdom—start here.
