Are you truly at peace, or just stuck in survival mode? In this video, I break down the difference between the freeze response and true calm—a game-changing distinction for anyone on a trauma recovery journey.

You’ll learn:

- How freeze response can masquerade as calm

- Subtle signs you’re in survival mode (and not really at peace)

- What authentic calm actually feels like in your body

- Practical steps to move from freeze to genuine peace

Ready to stop abandoning yourself and start living courageously?
