In this episode of You Are Not Your Trauma, I’m diving deep into how our personal experiences and traumas influence the way we see and respond to the world around us. Inspired by a recent movie night with my kids (yes, Transformers had me thinking deep thoughts!), I’m breaking down how two people can go through the same situation but walk away with completely different perspectives.Using the examples of Optimus Prime and Megatron, I explore how our reactions to life are shaped by the experiences we’ve been through—and how those reactions can either help us grow or keep us stuck. Whether you’re trying to understand yourself or those around you better, this episode will help you see just how much power you have in shaping your own narrative, no matter what your past looks like.Topics Discussed in this Episode:Our personal experiences and past traumas shape how we see the worldHow two people can experience the same situation differentlyWe’re all built differently, but we’re also built to growThere’s still time to participate in the Season 5 Episode 1 Poll in the You Are Not Your Trauma® App. As a thank you for your input, everyone who completes the poll and provides their contact information will be entered into a drawing for some exclusive You Are Not Your Trauma® podcast merch or a one-on-one session with me to discuss healing strategies.
