Description

Episode 050: In today's episode, we'll reflect on the importance of normalizing triggers and nervous system dysregulation. Experiencing both of these is a natural part of being human and are also opportunities for growth, not moral failings. There's a way we can approach triggers with curiosity and use them as tools for self-understanding and healing. By learning to be present with our emotional responses, we can not only heal ourselves but also show up more compassionately for others.


Key points:



  • How our emotional responses serve as messengers and signposts, providing valuable insights into our inner world.

  • The importance of reframing triggers as opportunities for self-awareness rather than viewing them as moral failings.

  • How embracing all emotions, including uncomfortable ones like anger and anxiety, aligns with the goodness of how God created us

  • Practical steps to sit with and process emotional dysregulation instead of pushing it away

  • Why healing yourself is not selfish but one of the most selfless acts you can do for your relationships and community
