I'm Lauren. I'm a storyteller. I love a good cold plunge in nature. I like to ground outside so my feet are always dirty. I've had an impressive nearly two decade career in clinical emergency medicine as a paramedic - and that's not even the most interesting thing about me.
I'm fascinated with human beings, with ritual, with the nervous system and with where these magics combine. I teach paramedics, facilitate ceremony, guide nervous system regulation and serve tea.
And I'm (proudly) a wee bit feral.

A mentor once described burnout to me as when the heart wants to quit the job but the body keeps showing up. Physiologically we see burnout as profound nervous system dysregulation experienced primarily by the dorsal vagal nerve root. Whether triggered by an understaffed shift or threatened by a mountain lion, we can assume humans have always strived for self regulation.
