The Internal Guidance System with Zen Cryar DeBrucke

Here at BossMom, we know the best breakthroughs don’t come from pretending everything’s fine. They come when we’re honest about the fear, the overwhelm, and the spirals of anxiety that so many of us carry while raising kids and building businesses.

In this episode, Dana sits down with Zen Cryar DeBrucke, creator of the Fear-Free Human Movement and founder of the Recreating You Game. Zen shares her work on the Internal Guidance System (IGS), a built-in compass we all have that helps us detect when our thoughts are leading us off track, and how to shift toward ones that open us up to alignment, peace, and possibility.

Together, they explore what it looks like to move past fear-based thinking, how to recognize the signals in your body that show you the truth, and why learning to pivot into “opening” thoughts can be the key to lasting emotional freedom.

If you’ve ever wondered how to stop the late-night worry spiral, how to respond to life’s chaos with more clarity, or how to live and lead from a place of abundance instead of fear, this conversation will leave you inspired, grounded, and ready to trust the guidance system you already carry inside.

• What the Internal Guidance System really is and how it differs from intuition and emotions.

• The difference between opening and closing thoughts, and how to feel the signals in your own body.

This episode is a reminder that you don’t have to be ruled by fear, anxiety, or overwhelm. You already have the tools inside you to find calm, clarity, and courage.
