Heal First Then Pick Your Life Partner: Help With Healing CPTSD

In this episode, I walk you through how to design your perfect grounding technique — one that is tailored to your exact needs, rooted in self-leadership, and strong enough to carry you through your most unsteady moments. You'll learn how to diagnose yourself across three critical dimensions — isolation, fear, and overwhelm — and how to build practices that restore your sovereignty, rather than outsource your power to someone else.

In this episode you'll learn: ✦ Why most grounding practices aren't robust enough for CPTSD Resolution ✦ How to assess your level of isolation and choose safe co-regulators without "strings attached" ✦ How to separate terrifying stories from present truth so fear doesn't take over ✦ How to recognize overwhelm and increase your capacity in real time ✦ How to build a customized grounding practice that helps you find your center again and again
