- S3EP20: The Power of Fires and Desires
Send us a text
It’s been a busy week at the Institute for Dr. Lee.
She ran an incredibly successful Trauma-Sensitive Manifestation masterclass, hosted a 3-day empowerment retreat for 6 incredible humans, created a line of merchandise, and so much more behind the scenes goodness.
The big theme that came through all of it this week was the idea of “fire”. In talking about power and influence, and consent, and desire and fear, and trauma, and so much more – fire came up over and over. Where it is, what it is, and how it can help you with your power of creation and empowered action.
Tune into this week’s episode to learn more.

Send us a text
If you’re a human who sells (ie: a business owner, entrepreneur, etc.) then this episode is a must-listen!
Self-care often gets tied up with money and we learn that the way we take care of ourselves is to make more money to hire more support and do more things. It’s added a level of trauma inducing, privileged lens that doesn’t feel good for a lot of people.
So this week, Dr. Lee talks through self care tips that you can do RIGHT NOW and that don’t require a hefty bank account to support. And it all starts with reframing self care.

39 min - S3E14: How to Handle Failure
Send us a text
Failure is often something that feels really scary for people, and is one of the things that prevents people from living the life they want most often. Often what we’ve learned about ourselves is that we’re not good at something, and characterize our failures as part of who we are vs what we’ve done. It becomes part of our identity.
So this week, Dr. Lee addresses reframing our thoughts around failure, and gives tangible tips on dealing with it, so you can start going after what you want without the fear of failure more often.

40 min - S3E13: 5 Things to Try When You’re Pissed
Send us a text
A frustrating morning was the inspiration for this week’s episode. Being “overemotional” or angry (particularly for women) is often deemed socially unacceptable. In response, we tend to do one of two things: stuffing your emotions down because you’re afraid they won’t be validated or people will respond negatively; or outwardly sharing their feelings by yelling or screaming or other outward responses. Both can cause problems. And neither one is particularly healthy.
So this week, Dr. Lee walks you through the 5 things she does to work through her anger in a way that helps resolve the situation and process your emotions effectively.

Dysregulation shows up in every area of life. As a trauma coach, one of the things Dr. Lee talks about a lot is acute threat responses (fight, flight, fawn, freeze). And in this episode, she shares her identification of the 6 patterns of chronic dysregulation that show up – how we take these moments of acute threat (the potential loss of love, safety or belonging) and start to string together chronic responses to those threats. The biggest trigger of this dysregulation? 3 core needs not being met.
