The Advisor Podcast “Why Am I Reacting Like This?” Understanding Trauma's Impact on the Brain and Nervous System & Trauma Recovery
“Trauma isn’t really about the event itself—it’s about what happens in your nervous system afterward.

The good news: You can start rewiring those patterns today with simple regulation tools like grounding, breath, and creating safety cues.”
