Show Notes:What does trauma really mean — and how does it shape the way we cope?In this first episode of a three-part conversation, Sacha Holder talks with health and wellness expert Amy Vincze, who has spent over 20 years helping people heal emotional and physical pain through EFT Tapping.Amy explains the difference between Big T and little t trauma, why coping mechanisms like perfectionism, people-pleasing, procrastination, and addiction often begin in childhood, and what it takes to move beyond simply managing anxiety, stress, or overwhelm — to actually heal them.You’ll also hear Amy’s simple “table-and-legs” metaphor for dismantling long-standing patterns and a compassionate reminder that our behaviors often start as our brain’s attempt to keep us safe.✨ Content Note: General references to trauma and abuse (no graphic detail)Connect:Where to find Amy:Website: soarwithtapping.comFollow Soar with Tapping: 📱Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/soarwithtapping]📺YouTube: [https://www.youtube.com/@soarwithtapping9898]📺TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@soarwithtapping]📱Facebook: [https://www.facebook.com/share/191vWHGCk8]📱LinkedIn: [https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-vincze-1a86063]✨ Connect with The High-Functioning Disaster:🎙 Guest inquiries: bookings [at] holderhausmedia [dot] com📬 Get in touch: heythere [at] holderhausmedia [dot] com🎙 More episodes & info: [https://the-high-functioning-disaster.captivate.fm/]🎙 Discover more podcasts by Holder Haus Media: [https://holder-haus-media.captivate.fm/]📱 Follow on IG: @thehighfunctioningdisaster [https://instagram.com/thehighfunctioningdisaster]📺 Watch on YouTube: Uploads coming soon!
