Unmasking Adaptive Behaviors: A Deep Dive into Confusion and Overwhelm

The Hidden Healing of Emotions -The Heroine's Journey

Send us a Text Message.

Have you ever wondered why, despite feeling on top of the world professionally, your personal life feels like an entirely different story? Ever felt overwhelmed or confused but can't quite put a finger on why? You're not alone. This conversation is a deep dive into the world of adaptive behaviors and how trauma impacts our nervous systems. We'll explore the subtle ways our mind and body work together to protect us from feelings of rejection, embarrassment, and criticism, and how two types of family environments can contribute to trauma and mask its effects in unique ways.
In a transparent sharing of my personal journey, I illustrate how overwhelm and confusion have served as protective mechanisms. But it doesn't stop there. The narrative evolves into an empowering dialogue on healing and building trust through self-reflection. Embrace the concept of acknowledging and respecting our feelings as a pathway to understanding ourselves better and fostering resilience. This powerful conversation is a mirror to your soul, transforming your perspective on trauma and recovery. So, buckle up and get ready to explore the depths of your being!

This podcast is not meant to take the place of therapy, to diagnose or treat anyone. I have had therapy as recently as 2021 and found it very helpful. I am not a doctor. My only degree is in computers. I am simply sharing tools I have used to help myself grow to become an emotionally healthy person and sharing stories about my journey. Please seek medical help, as I did, if you are unable to cope with life and all that it brings.
