About the event

In 90 minutes you’ll:


  • Discover the real reason why you can read every book on nervous system regulation, complete the course, do the practice…and still find yourself lying awake at 11pm replaying a conversation that ended six hours ago.


  • Identify the specific pattern that has been running your professional life since the moment you chose work that puts other people's needs at the center… the one that keeps you physically leaving the room but never quite arriving home.


  • Understand why you can hold an entire room of people steady and still feel the tension of a difficult conversation sitting in your chest when you sit down for dinner …and what that gap is actually telling you about where the real shift needs to happen.


  •  Get a clear map of the 4-phase process that takes a nervous system from always switched on to genuine restoration…and see precisely where the work you've already done (meditation, breathwork, therapy) fits in, and what's been missing.


  • Be guided through a somatic practice where you will feel where your specific pattern lives in your body, what it feels like when it activates, and what becomes available when it starts to release.


  • Leave having felt something shift in your own body…not as a demonstration of what's possible for other people, but as a direct experience of what it actually feels like when your nervous system is no longer in charge of the decision.


This is not a workshop you watch. It's one you feel.

Description:


You chose work that asks something real of you.

Not just your skills or your time, but for your presence, your steadiness, your capacity to hold what other people can't yet hold for themselves.

You're good at it. That part was never the question.


When you get home, you already know what you need. More rest. Time to decompress. Space to stop being the person everyone turns to.

But you get to the end of the week and you're still running. Still absorbing. Still catching up to yourself somewhere between the last conversation and the next responsibility.

Your shoulders stay tight even on weekends. You lie in bed and your mind won't settle. You walk through the door after work but you're not actually there yet.


You look fine on the outside. Inside, your body knows something needs to shift.

So you try something. A morning routine. A boundary you set with real intention this time. It works for a while. And then the term picks up, the caseload grows, someone needs more than you planned to give…and it slips.

You're back where you were. Noticing that nothing seems to hold.


The gap isn't between you and the information. It's between what you know and what your body will actually let you access.

Your nervous system has been trained to stay alert. To scan. To anticipate. To hold the thread for everyone else. That's what has kept you safe and connected for all of these years.

It doesn't respond to more information. Or better discipline. Or the right practice at the right time of day.

It changes when your body finally gets the signal that it's allowed to stop.

That's the level this work happens at.


The Restored Leader is 90 minutes of working at the level where the pattern actually lives. 

Not managing it. 

Shifting it. In your body, where it has always been waiting to change.


If you recognize yourself in this, come and spend 90 minutes with me on May 13.

This Workshop Is For You If:


You're the person other people regulate against and you don't know how to stop regulating when you get home

☐ You spend your days being available for others and your body hasn't learned how to be fully present for yourself

☐ You already know what you need but your body won't let you access it

☐ You've tried meditation, therapy, breathwork, and all the "right things" and the patterns keep returning

☐ You get to the end of the week still running, still absorbing, still catching up to yourself

☐ You're ready for your leadership to feel as good on the inside as it looks on the outside


This is for capable, self-aware professionals who know they need something different.

Not another practice to layer on. Not more information to manage.

The thing that actually shifts the pattern.


What to have ready:


  • A quiet, distraction-free space where you can be present

  • Water and a journal or notebook

  • Comfortable seating (you'll have the option to lay down during the somatic practice)

  • You might choose to have a yoga mat, pillows, and blankets nearby for an extra comfy experience.


Note: This workshop is live and interactive. While the replay will be available, the real-time practice, connection, and Q&A won't translate fully to the recording. Attend live if you can.



Ready to Begin?


There is a version of you who ends a hard day and is already through it by the time you walk in the door.

Not because the day was easier.

Because something underneath has shifted.

Your nervous system has learned it's safe to stop. To rest. To put down the thread you've been holding for everyone else.

You make clearer decisions. You hold steadier boundaries. You show up with more presence, at work and at home.

Your leadership feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

The Restored Leader is your invitation to reclaim that version of you.



About Your Guide:


Kim Brooks is a somatic coach, Reiki master, and former educator.


After 18 years as an elementary educator, Kim experienced firsthand what happens when high-functioning capability is built on an unsustainable nervous system foundation. She spent years managing chronic shoulder tension, racing thoughts, and a jaw so tight she could see it in her reflection, all while appearing calm and capable to everyone around her.


She knew what she needed. She had the information. She'd been teaching stress management and mindfulness to her students for years.


But knowing and accessing are two completely different things.


Through nervous system work, somatic practices, Reiki, and breathwork, Kim discovered what it takes to shift the pattern at the level where it actually lives, in the body, not just the mind.


Kim works with service-oriented professionals who hold space for others and aren't able to stop holding it when they get home. Her approach blends nervous system regulation with somatic practice, not to manage the symptoms, but to address the root pattern.


She holds certifications in Reiki, breathwork, meditation, and yoga.

Her approach is grounded, peer-to-peer, and focused on what actually works, not what sounds good.


She understands the specific pressures of being the steady presence others depend on because she lived it for nearly two decades.


Frequently Asked Questions:


Do I need any previous experience with nervous system work or somatic practices?


No. This workshop is designed to be accessible whether you're new to this work or have been exploring it for years. I'll explain everything in plain language and guide you through the practice step by step.


Will I need to be on camera?


Camera is optional. You're welcome to participate in whatever way feels comfortable. The somatic, embodiment practice doesn't require you to be seen.


What if I can't attend live?


The replay will be sent within 48 hours and will be available for a limited time.. However, the live experience includes real-time practice, connection with others, and Q&A that won't fully translate to the recording. If you can attend live, I recommend it.


What should I have ready for the workshop?


A quiet space where you can be present without distractions, water, and a journal if you'd like to take notes. We'll do a brief somatic practice, so comfortable seating and room to lay down if you choose will be helpful.


Is this workshop only for women and educators?


No. While I work primarily with women, educators and care-focused professionals (therapists, mentors, counselors, social workers, nonprofit leaders, service-oriented professionals), this workshop is for anyone whose work requires constant emotional presence and regulation of others and who functions well externally but feels overextended internally.


I teach clients about nervous system regulation—is this still relevant for me?


Yes. Many therapists, counselors, and somatic practitioners attend this workshop because there's a gap between knowing about nervous system regulation and living it. You can explain polyvagal theory to a client while your own body is braced. This workshop helps you close that gap, so you can embody what you teach.


What happens after the workshop?


After the workshop, you will have the option to book a free Pattern Recognition Session, a one-hour, one-on-one call where we look at your specific pattern and figure out your next step together. For those who want to go deeper, Path to Freedom is my three-month 1:1 program for nervous system regulation and embodied self-leadership.
