About the show

Unhinged But Mindful  Unhinged But Mindful is a nervous system podcast for midlife women healing from trauma, anxiety, menopause overwhelm, ADHD, and chronic survival mode. If you’ve done therapy but still feel reactive… If you feel exhausted, stuck, emotionally overwhelmed, or like something just isn’t shifting… You are not broken. Your nervous system doesn’t feel safe. Each week, Amy shares grounded conversations about nervous system regulation, trauma recovery in midlife, emotional regulation skills, building safety in the body, setting boundaries, rebuilding confidence through repetition, and moving out of survival mode. You’ll also hear about her kitchen-based regulation approach - using everyday rituals like cooking to retrain safety, build tolerance, and restore joy. No hustle culture. No toxic positivity. No pretending you’re fine. Just real, steady conversations to help you feel safe enough to be yourself again.
