Regulate to Rise: A New Operating System for High-Achieving Women
We live almost entirely in our heads. As high-achieving women, we've learnt to lead with a sharp, strategic mind and leave the body behind. Yet the body, and the nervous system running through it, shapes every decision we make. It sets the ceiling on what we're able to build, and decides how we feel while building it.
In this hour, Alice Pavin, a psychology-informed embodiment coach and former startup and investment professional, will unpack the real cost of building from pressure instead of alignment. She'll introduce Regulate → Reconnect → Rewire, the framework she's developed by combining Western nervous system science with Eastern practices. Following this, the focus will be on the first step in the method: Regulation of the nervous system. Expect a mix of teaching, live discussion and guided practice, so you leave with something you've actually felt, not just heard.
What you'll walk away with
A clear understanding of why a dysregulated nervous system limits performance, decision-making and creativity, grounded in research
An scientific understanding of the autonomic nervous system and polyvagal theory
Two regulation practices you can return to before a big decision or a hard conversation, or whenever you need to come back to yourself
The Regulate → Reconnect → Rewire framework
Time for reflection and discussion with the group, so the ideas land rather than staying abstract
An invitation to go deeper
Who it's for
High-achieving women who learnt early that constant doing, optimising and analysing is the path to a successful life. You look like you have it all together on the outside, but on the inside you often feel disconnected, overwhelmed or scattered. You are ready to build a life from inner alignment, rather than external pressure, and feel amazing while doing it!
