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 ar... more

You know the feeling. The day is full, you're moving the whole time, and somehow at the end of it you can't point to anything that actually moved forward.

  • One of Our Favorite Conversations

    Michelle has a gift for making complex ideas about the nervous system feel practical, relatable, and immediately useful. As relationship therapists, we know that lasting change doesn't happen through insight alone—it happens when people feel safe enough for their brains and bodies to do something different. Michelle communicates that beautifully.

    We loved our conversations with her and highly recommend High Capacity to anyone who wants to better understand themselves, improve their relationship... more

  • Great Show!

    So glad I found Michelle’s show! She’s been at this inner work for a while and I can sure tell. I can relate to so many of her nervous system patterns that she has worked through so I appreciate her work a lot! Thanks for doing this work to help women feel seen, heard, and hopeful for so much more than the stress and overwhelm many of us carry for decades!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

493 - Why Am I Like This? Sabrina Zohar on the Patterns Running Your Life
Q: Can you talk about the role of intuition in all of this?
Zohar recommends noticing the story and body sensations accompanying a gut reaction, then checking it against facts. In her example, researching a marketing hire revealed that her initial sense of certainty was based on hoping he would solve her problems, and that he was a scammer.
493 - Why Am I Like This? Sabrina Zohar on the Patterns Running Your Life
Q: Can you walk us through an example that would make that really practical?
Zohar describes how her partner's brief refusal to go to Home Goods triggered memories of her father's dismissiveness. She paused to identify the feeling and its origin, then explained the trigger and made a specific request, which helped them avoid an argument.
476 - Everything’s Fine, But You Don’t Feel Okay. Here’s What That Actually Means with Dr. Anne Walsh
Q: What does it look like in practical terms to start naming what you want and taking steps without blowing up your life?
She outlines starting with acknowledgment of current dissatisfaction, then a gradual process of identifying authentic desires (the “breadcrumbs of joy”), and finally implementing one-degree shifts in daily habits and boundaries. This approach reduces risk and resistance, making change sustainable and integrated with existing responsibilities.
476 - Everything’s Fine, But You Don’t Feel Okay. Here’s What That Actually Means with Dr. Anne Walsh
Q: Could you walk us through how the book was born and what you aimed to capture for readers?
Dr. Walsh explains the book arrived in snippets during daily routines, driven by observing the same patterns in clients and her own life. She emphasizes the Ambition Paradox and how systemic expectations push women to pursue success while maintaining perfect balance, then outlines the book's structure around practical skills, healthy striving, and workplace dynamics to help women reclaim their well-being.
462 - The 3-Part Model That Frees Up Hours in Your Week (Without Dropping a Single Ball)
Q: What practical systems or routines can someone start today to feel more balanced?
She suggests foundational practices that get scheduled and protected (sleep, movement, alone time), an integrated calendar and to-do list to see the full life in one place, and a running SOS approach to decide what to cut or delegate to create space for what matters.
