Regulate with Amy
Regulate with Amy is a nervous system podcast for midlife women healing from trauma, anxiety, menopause overwhelm, ADHD, and chronic survival mode.
If you’ve done therapy but still feel reactive…
If you feel exhausted, stuck, emotionally overwhelmed, or like something just isn’t shifting…
You are not broken. Your nervous system doesn’t feel safe.
Each week, Amy shares grounded conversations about nervous system regulation, trauma recovery in midlife, emotional regulation skills, building safety in the body, setting boundaries, rebuilding confidence through repetition, and moving out of survival mode.
You’ll also hear about her kitchen-based regulation approach - using everyday rituals like cooking to retrain safety, build tolerance, and restore joy.
No hustle culture. No toxic positivity. No pretending you’re fine.
Just real, steady conversations to help you feel safe enough to be yourself again.

Stop Apologizing For Who You Are
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You ever catch yourself saying “sorry” for just… existing? For taking up space, having an opinion, or breathing too loud? Yeah, same.
In this episode, I sit down with my inner wild child, Daisy Mae — the unfiltered, unapologetic voice inside us all — to unpack why women are conditioned to shrink, over-apologize, and play nice even when it hurts. Together, we dive into what’s really behind that constant “sorry,” how to rewire your self-talk, and why letting go of perfectionism and guilt is the biggest act of confidence you’ll ever take.
Expect truth bombs, a little sass, a few F-bombs (sorry, not sorry), and a whole lot of empowerment. Because it’s time to stop apologizing for who you are — and start owning the woman you’ve become.
