Yes, you read that right. In this episode, I share a very real and very unexpected story about what happened when I accidentally swallowed a dental tool, and how I used the Adult Chair model to navigate nine days of fear, anxiety, and uncertainty.
What could have been a terrifying and overwhelming experience became a powerful opportunity for me to practice exactly what I teach: grounding, regulating my nervous system, and staying connected to myself no matter what was happening around me.
In this episode, I open up about:
How I calmed myself using fact and truth, grounding, and slow breathing
The importance of asking "Why is this happening for me?" instead of "Why is this happening to me?"
The parts work and inner healing that surfaced through this experience
How feelings of anger, fear, and even betrayal led me to uncover old root beliefs
This story isn't just about an unusual accident. It's about how we can move from fear to empowerment, from victim to adult, and from disconnection back to our true selves.
