You weren’t expecting this, but maybe your nervous system was…


"The most productive thing you might do today is deciding how your workday will end."


Reader,

This is last minute—I know.

But I couldn’t not share this with you.

Tomorrow, I’m starting something I created for the ones doing the most:

✨ The ambitious ones with anxious bodies

✨ The dreamers carrying the weight of their vision

✨ The leaders who want to feel calm before things fall apart

It’s called Starts With the Body—a 4-week somatic reset to help you regulate your nervous system and create real, sustainable space to grow without burning out.

We’ll gather weekly, breathe together, and gently rewire the part of you that’s been hustling to feel safe.

If your body’s been asking for more rest, more regulation, more realignment—this is for you.

It starts tomorrow. I haven’t talked about it here yet because I wasn’t sure how to explain it in words. But here it is, in plain truth:

👉🏽 This is the space I wish I had when I was evolving fast and falling apart quietly.

If this feels like your next right step, you can RSVP here:


With breath + love,

Adhana

Start With the Body

"Resistance will tell you anything to keep you from doing your work." --Stephen Pressfield Reader, Last night I hosted a virtual event for a business incubator. Nine entrepreneurs came as they were. They didn’t need to come on camera to breathe, to reflect, to reset. They just needed to schedule the space and listen to themselves. I guided them. They came to the room rushed, confused, anxious, apologizing for tardiness, and overwhelmed. They left calm, focused, and ready to peel back one...

"The most productive thing you might do today is deciding how your workday will end." Reader, I want to share a personal journey that transformed my relationship with rest and self-care during perimenopause. It's a simple story about creating boundaries that might resonate with many of you navigating similar waters. For months, my evenings followed a downward spiral pattern. I would set a reasonable 10pm bedtime, then I'd mysteriously become wired just as the hour approached. The day's...

Hi Reader, Let me tell you about something magical that happens when two women create space to truly see each other. Picture this: Two women sitting together. Not networking. Not fixing. Not comparing. Just BEING. One might be staring down a career change. The other? Navigating the vast, sometimes terrifying landscape of an empty nest. Their stories are different, but their hearts? Completely in sync. What Happens in Those Moments of Real Connection When women pause and create intentional...
