Part 2: What happened to our Men – The nervous system, trauma & the crayfish analogy

from Curious B · host Belinda Duffy

This is the conversation after the red stop button — the part that was too important not to share.In this raw and illuminating Part 2, Matt Castle returns to unpack what we didn’t get to in Part 1 — namely, the trauma that's been drip-fed through systems, media, and relationships, and how it’s scrambling our nervous systems like the antennae of a crayfish sensing danger.We dive into:What trauma really is and how it embeds in the nervous systemThe crayfish analogy — and how our antennas (nervous systems) are constantly scanning for threatEmotional restoration, separation, and what’s happening to polarity between men and womenThe role of media, early childhood, and even Disney in unconscious trauma programmingWhy many women are describing what they want in a man... but it actually sounds like a womanHow men are becoming more feminine, and women more masculine — and what that does to attractionAnd the question: Is it actually your partner causing the trauma? Or is it something much bigger?We’re in the trenches. And yet, as Matt so beautifully puts it — we need each other, we need to talk, and we need to stop firing at our own.This is real, messy, and deeply human.Let’s talk about it.👇Find Matt & links mentioned in the episode below.Listen to Part 1 here:https://open.spotify.com/episode/1L8RuETHn2tc6P69donJVD?si=3684f4faddcf4a6aFollow me on Insta:https://www.instagram.com/belindaduffy_/Connect with Matt Castle: Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/matt.castle.397 Insta:https://www.instagram.com/matt.castle.397 Matt's Websitehttps://myselfsabotagecoaching.com
