Are you thriving, or do you feel like you are barely surviving? If you feel stuck in survival mode, you are not alone. It is common, but you don't have to stay there.

Survival mode is helpful in a crisis. But staying stuck there too long can leave you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and unable to enjoy life fully. Fortunately, there are strategies that can help you escape survival mode so you can start to thrive.

Some of the things I discuss today are:

  • The five warning signs that you’re stuck in survival mode.
  • The mistakes that keep you stuck in survival mode.
  • Why survival mode feels so normal — and how to break the cycle.
  • How small, intentional changes can help you shift gears and build emotional resilience.
  • The role your environment plays in staying stuck.
  • The surprising ways fun, creativity, and connection can help you thrive.
  • Simple strategies to calm your nervous system and regain control.
  • The most important thing you can do today to break free.
