Dr. Moreen Rubin became a clinical therapist because she recognized that she could easily see what makes a person sitting in front of her special and unique. Ever since she was a child, those in her presence would reflect back to her that they felt seen, heard and understood in a deep and meaningful way.  She has come to believe that compassion, empathy, and living life with purpose can free people from self- limiting thoughts, beliefs and doubts. Through good therapy, she healed herself and learned about the power of self- love and trust.

In our episode together we discuss how our brain is actually comparable to computer software,  and how it has hardwired “programs” that kick in when we experience trauma or fear. 

Dr. Mo goes over the 5 common fear responses: Flight, fight, freeze, fawn, or flop, and I was shocked to learn from her that there are more responses than flight, fight, or freeze. More so, I was shocked to realize that I had consistently experienced the “fawning” method of a fear response for basically my whole life while being totally unconscious of it. Major A-HA moment for me.
