Savitree, this stopped me. Not the cholesterol. The "No." The way you sat in that room, asked the right question, read the trend — and then held your ground. That's not stubbornness. That's decades of listening.

I work with people who lose their voice exactly there, in the room where it matters most. Where someone with authority tells them what to do. You didn't. Thank you for sharing this in real time. That takes a different kind of courage than teaching it.

Thanks, Jane. It’s the access-to-your-parasympathetic-mode kind of courage. Still scary, but accessible when the body tells you you’re safe. There’s so much power in being able to just say “no”. But the body has to support it. Which is why I talk about the four anchors. ⚓️

Yes and that's exactly the order that matters. Safety first, then courage. The body leads.

Wow is right! I found this read as if you were talking to me and many of us who believe they are on the right path but the numbers show differently.

Thank you for sharing and being honest with it.

You have taught me more than I can even begin to say in these last many years. I trust you and look forward to learning and observing you on your journey.
