Listen Later

Does being a good partner mean always responding with what we think the other person wants to hear? In this episode of Beyond What Hurts Us, Kristen and Leslie take a deep dive into Fawning, a common but lesser known trauma response (there's more than just fight or flight - who knew?!).

We all encounter moments when societal pressures or past experiences make it challenging to be our authentic selves. Join us as we explore what the fawning response is and how it functions as a trauma reaction. We dive into practical advice for embracing vulnerability and establishing healthy boundaries.

Whether you've experienced trauma or simply want to lead a more authentic life, this episode offers a roadmap for personal growth and healing. Tune in to discover the strength that arises from embracing your vulnerability and taking steps toward a more genuine and empowered version of yourself and get more 'you' in your life.
