48: Understanding your Nervous System Archetype


Listen Later

Why do you push when you’re overwhelmed…
but shut down when something really matters?

Why do you over-give in some relationships…
and withdraw in others?

In this episode of Golden Cor, we explore your nervous system - not as something to fix, but as something that has been trying to protect you.

Your patterns are not random. They are intelligent.

Over time, your body develops protective responses to stress - often moving through fight, flight, freeze, or fawn. These responses shape how you show up in your work, your relationships, your creativity, and even your ability to rest.


Inside this episode, we explore:

– Why your nervous system’s primary job is safety
– How protective patterns form through lived experience
– The four core stress responses and how they show up in women
– Why understanding your dominant pattern changes everything


This isn’t about labelling yourself, it’s about understanding yourself. When you recognise your nervous system archetype, you stop asking, “What’s wrong with me?” and start asking, “What does my body need right now?”
