Sustainable Success Podcast

The podcast for sensitive, high-capacity women who want work, energy, and nervous system to finally be on the same team.


Each episode weaves together neuroscience, somatic psychology, and real-life work stories to help you find clarity, capacity, and relief in your career or business without overriding your body.

Whether you’re in quiet burnout in a “good” job, recovering from a toxic workplace, navigating ADHD or cPTSD while making big decisions about what’s next, or reshaping a business so it no longer runs on adrenaline, this podcast offers grounded insight, nervous-system-informed tools, and honest conversations to help you move in a way your body can actually sustain.

What to Expect

You’ll find a mix of solo episodes (think nervous system notes meets work and life mentorship) and conversations with heart-led leaders, clinicians, and creatives who are rebuilding their work in more humane, sustainable ways.

We cover topics like:

  • How trauma and chronic stress shape your capacity to work, decide, and lead

  • Burnout, ADHD, and why traditional productivity advice often makes things worse

  • Creating nervous-system safety before you quit, pivot, or take on more

  • Redesigning your role, schedule, and boundaries to honour your cycles, needs, and capacity

  • Money, visibility, and receiving when you’re used to over-functioning

  • Feminine leadership, sensitivity, and emotional resilience at work

Meet Sheridan

I’m Sheridan, a somatic coach, integrative trauma therapist, and nervous system educator. I work with sensitive, often neurodivergent women who are navigating burnout, complex trauma, and big decisions about work, business, and life.

 

My clients are high-capacity humans who’ve hit a wall. They’ve done the mindset work. They’ve read the books. They’ve hired the business coach or changed jobs. But they still feel stuck, tired, or like their body can’t keep up with the life they’re trying to build.

 

My work goes deeper—into the body, the patterns, and the protective parts that learned to keep you safe by overworking, staying small, or staying unseen.

 

This podcast is where I share the tools, stories, and science that support real, sustainable change—because nervous system work isn’t a trend. It’s the foundation for work and a life that no longer costs all your energy.
