 "The same water that hardens the egg will soften the potato."

In Season 1, Episode 3, the AIO Panel welcomes Arya—a middle school educator and science specialist—to the team for a raw exploration of why we react the way we do. We deconstruct the four major trauma responses (Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn) and how our environment shapes our "Real & Authentic" behavior long after the trauma has passed.

UNC, Arya, and Loki engage in a heated debate over the story of "Captain David," a young man who nearly lost his life intervening in a stranger's mugging.
