I encourage you to recognize your resistance to change and the impact of being in a dysregulated state on your ability to connect with others and enjoy life (isn't that the whole point!?) Takeaways Regulation work provides the freedom to choose our behaviors. Fear-based motivators can lead to burnout and are not sustainable. Desire-based motivators are gentler and more effective long-term. Being in a dysregulated state consumes a lot of energy. Connection with others is hindered when in fight or flight mode. Enjoying life is difficult when focused on survival. It's important to challenge beliefs that keep us stuck. Connect with Jenna Instagram TikTok
