You can expect clear explanations, relatable examples, breathwork and somatic tools, and guidance on responding to yourself without shame or force. This is for anyone struggling with emotional regulation, trauma recovery, boundaries, burnout, anxiety, shutdown, or feeling disconnected from their body and relationships. If you want to understand why you react the way you do and how to build safety, presence, and self trust from the inside out, this episode will meet you where you are.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.
