286: Identify Your Trauma Response Pt. 1
Listen now
Description
We’re often quick to believe that messy and destructive actions stem from poor character. Our judgments of ourselves and others usually lack curiosity and understanding. However, as we learn more about the human experience, we discover that many of our actions are trauma responses that, when properly addressed, can be healed. In Part 1 of this two-part series, Abi and Justin explore the four trauma responses: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn. These responses can unknowingly be at the core of some of our most difficult relational interactions. Educating ourselves about these responses not only fosters grace for ourselves and others but also provides a roadmap for healing. If you’re struggling to overcome hurdles in your emotional health journey, this series may offer the clarity needed to start conquering them. AND REMEMBER TO CHECK US OUT ON YOUTUBE!
