When holding it together isn’t working anymore.

The Calm in the Chaos Challenge

Dashboard & Replay Bundle

Finding Your Footing in Uncertain Times

This page contains private access to the full recording library, daily mindfulness practices, challenge exploration sheets, and bonus materials from the free 5-day virtual event that took place February 2–6, 2026.

If you purchased access before the challenge finished, you’ll see this library continue to fill up day by day as each session is added.

If the world feels like too much lately, and you’re not sure how much more you can take, this is a space to pause, breathe, and find a steadier way to meet your life. Through short daily sessions with Emilie Greenhalgh and a diverse array of thoughtful guest speakers, you’ll begin to understand what’s been wearing you down and, more importantly, how to start relating to it differently.

This isn’t about fixing yourself or pushing harder. It’s about learning how to stay standing when things feel unstable.

Before You Begin

This challenge was created for the parts of you that are tired of holding everything together.

For the part that keeps going, keeps giving, keeps being the strong one - even when something inside is quietly fraying.

You don’t need to fix yourself here. You don’t need to try harder.

Over these five days, you’ll be guided through conversations, practices, and reflections that help you understand what’s been wearing you down - and how to start meeting your life with a little more steadiness, honesty, and self-trust.

This work is about learning how to stay human and connected in a hard world. Take it at your own pace. Come back to what resonates. Let this be a place you don’t have to push

Your Guide for This Journey

Trauma-informed somatic coach | Writer | Humanitarian aid worker

Emilie is a trauma-informed somatic coach, writer, and humanitarian aid worker with nearly 15 years of experience working in high-pressure and fragile contexts, including Afghanistan and eastern DRC.

Years of living in constant responsibility and crisis response, combined with personal loss and chronic pain, eventually led her to change how she lived in her body and related to stress. She didn’t stop caring or contributing — but she did stop living in survival mode.

Today, her work is grounded, compassionate, and realistic. No bypassing. No hype. Just real tools for real life.

Emilie lives on a small, car-free island in Indonesia with her husband and five cats, and leads retreats and programs for people who are learning how to stop bracing and start living with more ease.

A Gentle Closing Note

This library will continue to unfold as the challenge progresses, and you’re welcome to return here anytime - whether to watch a conversation, revisit a practice, or simply remind yourself to pause.

You don’t need to move through this in order. You don’t need to do it all. And you don’t need to do it perfectly.

Let this be a place you come back to when things feel like too much, or when you want a little more steadiness and perspective.

Start where you are. Come back when you need. That’s enough.

— Emilie
