Why do you snap at small things, get stuck in endless busyness, go numb and disconnected, or find yourself saying yes when you want to say no?
In this episode, we explore the four survival states your nervous system moves into under stress: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn.
I’ll share everyday examples so you can recognise which state feels most familiar to you, and how each one shapes your life.
You’ll learn:✨ How to notice when you’re in fight, flight, freeze, or fawn✨ Why these states aren’t “bad habits” but protective responses from your body✨ The first gentle steps to begin processing and finding safety again
By the end, you’ll see yourself with more compassion, and start to understand the deeper wisdom behind the ways your body has been protecting you.
