Episode 490: Lose Your Mind

This episode includes discussions of family conflict, emotional abuse, accusations around sexuality, past sexual trauma, pregnancy, yelling, and references to being physically hit. Please listen with care and take breaks if you need to. Your nervous system mattersToday unraveled in ways I didn’t expect. I spent the morning with my dad at his office, talked with my sister, dreamed up a workshop I’m excited about, and ran errands with a single $10 bill that somehow covered everything. But the day ended in a blowout with my mom — all starting with steak knives in a drawer. Old wounds came up, things were said, and I stood up for myself louder than I wanted to. I’m not proud of all of it, but I’m human, and I’m learning. My sister and I talked afterward, and I know tomorrow will be better. Thank you for listening.
