Unintentional Self Sabotage: What are your TRIGGERS?

In today’s episode I have on one of my closest girlfriend’s Sam to have a JUICY convo about triggers and the importance of taking ownership of our reactions but also figuring out WHERE they come from. We are defining triggers as negative reactions to certain situations or behaviors, often stemming from unresolved fears or needs within ourselves. In this episode we both share personal examples of triggers and explore the emotions and core fears behind them, we discuss coping mechanisms and defense mechanisms, such as avoidance, retaliation, and seeking support. The whole convo is super juicy and really emphasizes the importance of compassion for ourselves and our triggers, as well as the potential for personal growth and transformation. I think you’re REALLY going to like this one 

Takeaways

• Triggers are negative reactions to certain situations or behaviors, often stemming from unresolved fears or needs within ourselves.
• Taking ownership of our triggers involves recognizing our reactions, exploring the emotions and core fears behind them, and finding healthier coping mechanisms.
• Compassion for ourselves and our triggers is essential, as they have served as defense mechanisms to protect us in the past.
• Triggers can be opportunities for personal growth and transformation, guiding us towards areas of healing and helping us become more authentic versions of ourselves.
