Frozen, NOT Broken
from Mirror Mirror On the Mic · host malissamatia

Because so many of us walk around believing there's something wrong with us when the truth is much simpler and much kinder. Your nervous system might just be stuck in protection mode. I'm talking about the freeze response. It can look like procrastinating, people pleasing, self-doubt, or even overthinking. But that doesn't mean you are broken. Its means your system learned how to survive and froze in survival mode. And great news....frozen things can thaw!
