When caregiving ends, your brain doesn’t simply “turn off.”
It’s still wired for crisis, vigilance, and someone else’s needs — even when the world tells you to just relax.

In this deeply insightful episode, Thérèse breaks down the science of starting over — exploring how caregiving reshapes the brain, why peace can feel unsafe, and how small daily choices can literally rewire your mind for calm, safety, and joy.

You’ll learn:
🧠 Why your brain resists rest — and how to teach it to trust peace again.
🌿 The neuroscience of “the after” — hypervigilance, habit loops, and neuroplasticity.
💫 Five simple, science-backed ways to rewire your brain for healing.
💗 Why resilience isn’t about bouncing back, but bouncing forward.

This episode is for every caregiver learning to breathe again — to rebuild, to rediscover, and to believe that joy is safe.

🎧 Listen now, and share it with someone who’s learning to start over too.
