The Trauma of Cheating and Regulating Your Nervous System with Jamie McCoy

Sherry and Carla talk about self care during the holidays and how to find calm in all the rushed moments, and they take a Love Fix listener question from a listener fearful that she’s going to pick another cheater again. They then welcome licensed therapist and trauma coach Jamie McCoy, who has been working with people for over 10 years on how to regulate their nervous system using somatic healing and holistic health education. Jamie talks about her passion to empower people to master their stress, and how you can move from living in survival mode to becoming resilient.   Connect with Us!
