Your Nervous System Is Your Ally Not Your Enemy in Motherhood

Have you ever found yourself snapping at your child, only to be overwhelmed by guilt moments later? As a mama who's experienced trauma, those reactive moments can leave you feeling lost and frustrated. But what if I told you that your nervous system isn't working against you – it's actually trying to protect you?

In this eye-opening episode, we explore the hidden truth behind your reactivity as a mother. You'll discover why those seemingly uncontrollable responses aren't flaws, but rather adaptations your body created to keep you safe during past traumas.

Unraveling the Mystery of Maternal Triggers

Through personal insights and practical examples, I'll guide you to:

• Recognize how your past experiences shape your present reactions
• Understand the crucial difference between what once kept you safe and what might be holding you back now
• Identify the physical signals your body sends before you react

From Survival Mode to Conscious Parenting

But understanding is just the beginning. You'll also learn:

• Simple, effective techniques to interrupt the cycle of reactivity
• How to create a pause between trigger and response
• The power of self-compassion in breaking old patterns

"What kept you safe then in the trauma might be keeping you stuck now."
