You're exhausted in a way that sleep doesn't fix. You snap at the people you love and spend the rest of the night wondering what's wrong with you. You've read the books, tried the breathwork, done the therapy β and you still feel stuck, flat, or like you're watching your own life instead of living it. Nothing is wrong with you. Your nervous system is doing exactly what it was designed to do. And nobody ever taught you how it works. The Spiral is hosted by Lauren Tobey β author of Spiraling Into Control and creator of The Spiral Framework. Each week, she breaks down the real science behind stress, burnout, overwhelm, and the patterns that keep showing up in your parenting, your relationships, your career, and your identity β without toxic positivity, without self-improvement pressure, and without ever calling you broken. The Spiral Framework maps four nervous system states you cycle through repeatedly throughout your life. You will return to familiar ground. You will return with more awareness. And you will rise faster each time. That's a promise, not a warning. New episodes every Tuesday. π Book: Spiraling Into Control β https://a.co/d/0cX7rkSj π Learn more: laurentobey.com/connect
