Matthew and I went through several recovery subjects which included Matts terrible abuse and his other losses, fears, grief and abandonment issues. And I once again got on my high horse. Throughout the show the two of us really connected.

Don't miss his techniques to lessen anxiety and other processes of the nervous system in the last part of the show. Matthew goes over the his emotional regulation systems. He builds emotional regulation systems that reduce stress, prevent escalation, and support clear, integrity-based decision-making—through practical systems including Operational Regulation Systems (ORS™), Neuro Advanced Learning Systems (NALS™), and EQ Unlocked. Check out his website in the links below.

Matthew is a survivor of many different traumas and challenges, He worked with kids mentoring youth for 20 years as a business owner , who had a loving family and great hopes for the future. He eventually lost everything piece by piece. This episode covers the difficult family history, the kind that leaves marks.

It’s a steady, grounded talk with real weight under it. Clean audio, Its a little longer than usual but it moves quickly.
