Rewrite the Moment: How to Take Back Control of Your Story and Turn Trauma Into Growth as It Happens
In this episode of Resilient Wisdom, we explore one of the most powerful tools for turning life’s hardest moments into opportunities for growth: the ability to rewrite your story while it’s happening. When stress hits, your body reacts—fight, flight, freeze, or fawn takes over—and it feels like you’ve lost control. But here’s the truth: between what happens to you and how you respond lies a choice.
We’ll break down how survival mode traps you in automatic reactions, how self-awareness creates space to choose, and how tools like box breathing and small physical actions can shift the moment in real time. You’ll learn how to calm your mind, regulate your body, and reclaim ownership of your story—transforming chaos into clarity and trauma into growth.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in a moment you couldn’t control, this episode will show you how to find your power, respond intentionally, and write an ending you’re proud of—even when life writes the beginning.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
