Ep 91: Intentions vs Goals: A Nervous System Approach to Sustainable Change
In this episode of Wild, Wise & Whole, I’m sharing why your nervous system craves stability and how to shift from rigid goal-setting into intentions that feel grounded and expansive. We’ll explore the difference between goals vs. intentions, how to honour both, why drastic changes often backfire thanks to your nervous system, and how to set aligned goals that honour your body’s natural rhythms.
I’ll also explain some nervous system-friendly practices to help you build a feeling of safety, support, and deep connected to yourself.
If you're ready to expand your capacity and create sustainable growth, tune in. I also share how my Restore & Reconnect program can support you in building lasting transformation if you wish to make sustainable change and cultivate safety in your body.
Journal Prompts:
Remember no judgment, just awareness.
- How can I set intentions that feel nourishing for my body and nervous system right now? Reflect on how you want to feel this year rather than just focusing on results.
- What's my usual pattern when it comes to making change? How do I respond?
- What small, sustainable shifts can I make that honour my current capacity while still allowing space for growth? Identify gentle steps that feel safe and aligned rather than overwhelming.
