In this episode of Backpacking Through ADHD, Tera explores what happens when the body is carrying more than anyone can see. Becoming Regulated: When Your Nervous System Runs the Meeting is a conversation for women with ADHD who look composed on the outside but know how much effort it takes to stay steady underneath.
Tera reflects on the difference between functioning and feeling regulated, the invisible load so many women carry into work, motherhood, relationships, and leadership, and the quiet ways nervous system overload can shape how we think, react, and move through the world. She also shares a personal reflection on what it means to feel safe in your body, the power of being deeply known, and why regulation is less about becoming less emotional and more about becoming more honest about what support looks like in this season of life.
This episode is especially for women navigating ADHD in midlife, where hormones, emotional labor, and changing capacity can make old systems stop working the way they used to. If you’ve been wondering why everything feels heavier than it once did, this conversation is for you.
