    High Capacity – Nervous System Regulation, Stress Management, Burnout Recovery, Somatic Tools, Anxiety, Boundaries, Overwhelm

    You’ve built a full life. The career, the family, the responsibilities, the goals — all of it. 

    And the fuller it gets, the more stretched thin you feel.

    Not because you lack the discipline or drive to figure it out.

    But because your nervous system was never upgraded to match the life you’ve built. 

    High Capacity is the podcast for ambitious women who are done just managing their stress and are ready to actually expand what they can hold. 

    Hosted by trial attorney turned nervous system strategist Michelle Grosser, each episode unpacks the nervous system science behind why you feel maxed out, reactive, and depleted — and gives you real tools to expand your capacity across every area of your life.

    This isn’t just about doing less. 

    It’s about becoming someone whose nervous system can hold more — more joy, more presence, more of the life you’ve worked hard to build, and more of the demands that come with it — without the low-grade stress that’s become your new normal.

    Here’s what you’ll learn:

    – How to expand your emotional, stress, physical, relational, and joy capacity

    – Nervous system-based tools that work in real life, in real time

    – How to identify your Capacity Pattern — the specific strategy your nervous system defaults to when you’re overwhelmed — and what it means for your stress, your relationships, and your daily life

    New episodes every Tuesday and Friday.

    Tuesdays bring the nervous system science and tools.

    Hi-Cap Fridays give you one practical move to expand your capacity in the week ahead.

    290 - 3 Ways to Show Your Body It’s OK to Relax & Be Calm Oct 08, 2024
    Show notes

    Is it often a challenge to unwind after a long day? Do you often feel tense, like your body is holding onto stress even when you’re trying to relax?

    As high-achieving women, we often carry stress in our bodies without realizing it, leaving us stuck in a constant state of overwhelm. In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into why this happens and sharing practical, somatic ways to show your body that it’s safe to settle down & relax.

    We’ll explore the connection between your nervous system and stress through the lens of Polyvagal Theory, discussing why working with body-based practices is key to finding real relief.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • How Polyvagal Theory explains the body's responses to stress and how to shift out of fight/flight mode.
    • Why body-based practices (not just cognitive strategies) are essential for nervous system regulation.
    • Three practical, somatic tools you can start using today to signal safety to your body.

    Listen in to learn how to show your body that it’s safe to calm down and finally start feeling the relief you deserve.

    289 - Heal Your Metabolism & Balance Your Hormones with Ashley Fillmore of the Metabolic Fix Method Oct 04, 2024
    Show notes

    Think about it: how much conflicting advice have you heard when it comes to health and diet?


    Focus on macros. Intermittent fasting. East 6 small meals a day. Today it’s healthy; tomorrow it’s not. With all the health info out there, it can be confusing and overwhelming to heal our metabolism and balance our hormones.


    I’m joined today by Ashley Fillmore of the Metabolic Fix Method. She works with women to help them break free from restrictive and ineffective diets by focusing on addressing hormonal imbalances affecting their metabolism.


    Ashley’s methods get to the root of diet struggles instead of masking them with fad plans. Your hormones play a huge role in our health journey, and an imbalance may be keeping you from achieving sustainable and long lasting health goals.


    3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

    1. How to build a healthy diet to fit your goals without following a diet plan
    2. Breaking free from the all-or-nothing mindset
    3. How fixing underlying hormone imbalances may be the missing piece to enjoying easy and lasting results

    Show notes

    Is dysregulation causing conflict in your marriage, or is your marriage causing you to feel dysregulated? Or does it feel like both are true?


    When we get married, we don’t just marry a person. The truth is that we also marry their history, their habits, their traumas, and their nervous system. And this can cause a lot of conflict.


    My guest today is Dr. Wyatt Fisher, a licensed psychologist specializing in couples therapy who’s been married for over 20 years and raised 4 children.


    We touch on how we can resolve resentments despite the chaos of motherhood and how leaning on our spouse for shared decision making can help create intimacy.
    3 things you’ll learn in this episode:

    1. Why conflict is normal and important in relationships
    2. Dr. Fisher’s brilliant Diamond Approach to address conflict
    3. What a “love bucket” is and how you can fill your partners
