Shownotes

In this Tammy’s Takes episode of the Adult Child of Dysfunction podcast, Tammy Vincent explores why emotional triggers can feel so powerful and where those reactions really come from. Building on her recent conversation with Josie Gibson, Tammy explains how the nervous system stores past experiences and trauma patterns, which can influence our emotional reactions in the present.

Many people believe they are simply overreacting, but in reality their body may be responding to learned survival patterns from childhood or past experiences. Tammy discusses how recognizing these trauma triggers and nervous system responses can help people better understand their emotional reactions, relationship dynamics, and stress responses.

By becoming aware of the patterns your body has learned, you can begin to approach triggers with curiosity instead of judgment and move toward greater emotional regulation, self-awareness, and healing from childhood trauma.

If you’re curious about what emotional or energetic patterns your body may still be holding onto, Tammy offers a complimentary Inner Voice Energy Scan to help uncover hidden patterns and bring greater clarity.
