714. The Nervous System Survival Guide You've Always Needed – With Jonny Miller

714. The Nervous System Survival Guide You've Always Needed – With Jonny Miller

Author: Mark Walsh July 1, 2025 Duration: 44:08

Why is everyone wired, tired, and teetering on the edge lately? I sat down with nervous system specialist and host of the Curious Humans podcast Jonny Miller to unpack the physiological chaos so many of us are feeling. Jonny breaks down why our systems are overstimulated, how hyper/hypo arousal plays out in daily life, and what we were never taught about calming the hell down.

We talk about phone addiction, loneliness, co-regulation, and what resilience really means in an AI-speed world. It's a conversation that's both calming and confronting—for coaches, leaders, and anyone trying to navigate life with a little more grace and groundedness.
