The Science Of Stuck with Britt Frank

Do you ever find yourself feeling stuck? We can get lost in relationships, work, addiction issues, body struggles or other situations that leave us dealing with immense guilt and shame when we can’t shake ourselves out of it. 

Niall is joined by Britt Frank, a neuropsychotherapist, teacher, trauma specialist and author of ‘The Science of Stuck’, a practical guide on the neuroscience of stuck-ness and how we can break free from the patterns that keep us there. Having experienced immense trauma as a child, Britt’s life has given her a unique perspective on how it impacts us psychologically and physiologically, which for her eventually led to meth addiction, time spent in a cult and a Borderline Personality Disorder diagnosis. Niall and Britt dive into the failings of our mental health systems in how they see and treat our symptoms without looking any deeper, the important messages this feeling of stuck can be trying to communicate and how sometimes the why isn’t as important as taking those small steps to get yourself moving again.
