For overthinking women, stuck in their head

Burnout and a severe herniated disc forced me to stop ignoring my body. Now I'm learning to find my way back through movement, and sharing everything I figure out along the way.

This is for you if movement feels exposing, mirrors feel brutal, and group spaces make your body tense. We rebuild safety first — confidence comes later.

I started this podcast because I needed to talk about what it's like to rebuild after burnout, to feel awkward in your body, to want to be seen and disappear. If you can relate, join me.

I'm Char. Mid 30s, French, and I spent most of my life pushing through everything. Burnout and a herniated disc finally made that impossible. Now I'm learning about my nervous system, slowing down without losing myself, and finding ways to stay bold while actually listening to my body. I dance, I surf, I write about what I notice. This is where I share all of it.
