Triggers, and the Body That Remembers

In Triggers, and the Body That Remembers, we unpack what triggers really are: your nervous system sounding the alarm, even when you’re safe now. We talk about how trauma shows up in the body, the core trigger themes (abandonment, being overridden, emotional invalidation), and how those patterns can shape adult relationships and parenting. You’ll also hear the tools that helped me grow through it—boundaries, perspective shifts, regulation, and the “sunflower practice” of acknowledging the shadow and turning back toward the light. Healing isn’t perfection—it’s peace.
