You might be scrolling past my posts thinking…
“That doesn’t apply to me. I don’t have trauma.”
Even my own HUSBAND said the same thing 😅
He didn’t realize that what he called “burnout” and “just being overwhelmed” — was actually trauma showing up in disguise.
And I get it.
Because I used to say the same thing: “I don’t have trauma.”
I thought I was just tired 😴 because I was ambitious and worked hard.
I thought how I felt every day was normal because I had lived with it so long.
But behind the success, I was:
– Over-functioning + over-giving to feel worthy and avoid abandonment 🤯
– Saying yes when I meant no, and constantly staying busy to avoid feeling 🙅♀️
– Constantly in “fight” mode ⚡ hypervigilant, bracing for the next “threat” — whether it was a difficult client email, a dip in engagement, or a slow sales week
– Building a business from survival, not safety 🛑
That was trauma. And I was operating from my wounds, not anchored in my worth ❤️🩹
The negative effects of unhealed trauma showed up everywhere — in my health, my relationships, and my career.
Here’s the truth:
👉 You don’t need to have survived a catastrophe to be carrying trauma.
If you:
⚡ Panic when things slow down so you keep your plate full, staying busy to avoid…
⚡ Struggle to rest without guilt, or feel on edge you’re not doing enough…
⚡ Tie your worth to your performance…
⚡ Feel like it’s never “enough” no matter how much you do, or what income/goal you hit…
Your nervous system may be operating from unhealed trauma patterns.
That doesn’t make you broken 🕊️
It means your body is still protecting you — the best way it knows how.
And healing isn’t about erasing the past…
✨ It’s about finally feeling SAFE now.
