Ever wondered why you're stuck in cycles of exhaustion or feel overwhelmed despite doing everything right? This episode with Dr. Aimie Apigian is a must-listen. Dr. Apigian, a leading expert in trauma biology, explains how trauma is stored not just in the mind but throughout the entire body, affecting the nervous system, hormones, and more. Her insights challenge the common belief that trauma is purely psychological, introducing listeners to the concept of trauma as a biological injury.
You'll learn why many women in midlife jump straight into freeze mode and how childhood attachment issues play a role in this. The episode is packed with engaging discussions about the physiological trauma response and how it rewires your body's systems. Dr. Apigian's personal journey, from fostering a child with attachment trauma to pioneering a new approach to healing, adds a deeply human touch to the scientific explanations.
Her story is one of resilience and transformation, offering hope to those who feel trapped by their past experiences. As she shares her methods for building inner safety and expanding one's capacity for hard things, listeners are encouraged to rethink their understanding of trauma and healing. This episode is a powerful reminder that healing is possible and begins with understanding and responding to your body's needs.
