In this episode, we’re diving into something tender and powerful—triggers, and what they’re really here to show us.
I’m sharing a personal story of being deeply triggered and how I’ve come to understand these moments not as signs that I’m broken, but as invitations to heal. Through the lens of nervous system awareness and shadow work, I explore what a trigger actually is, why they feel so overwhelming, and how we can meet them with compassion instead of shame.
You’ll hear:
• What a trigger is (and what it’s not)
• How your nervous system and shadow both react in triggered moments
• The “If someone calls you a tree…” metaphor
• Gentle tools for processing your reaction instead of judging yourself
If you’re navigating emotional reactivity, conflict, or deep inner healing—this one’s for you.
