Episode description
You read that right! Too often we thing when we struggle, have stress and anxiety, there is something WRONG with us! That we might have a mental illness…but what if it was actually something else entirely?
Dr. Sasha Heinz is not only BRILLIANT, she will help you see
things in a completely different way! We start out by talking about
self-compassion, but we quickly turn into a conversation like I’ve never had
before. I’ll be forever changed from it.
Dr. Heinz talks about how we, as women, as moms, are socialized
to prioritize other's needs - ok, nothing new here…but she goes on to talk
about how when we feel threatened, we revert back to our survival instincts of
fight or flight BUT women, move into “tend and befriend”. It’s a
completely different way of responding to stress than men.
Here’s the best part! We can evolve past this! We are just
stuck in a developmental stage as adults and with some internal work, we can be
free of these disempowering behaviors! We can become people who consider
others' opinions but aren’t ruled by them.
There is so much more in this episode I know you’ll love! I
could have talked to her for hours!
