In this episode, we dig into the "freeze" response—an often-overlooked survival mechanism—and explore it's connection to depression. Many of us are familiar with the fight-or-flight response, but did you know that freezing, a natural reaction to overwhelm, could keep you stuck in patterns of emotional and physical shutdown? We’ll unpack how this response is automatic, gets stored in the body and why certain narratives keep us stuck and have us fighting our own physiology. Whether you feel frozen in life, consider yourself a procrastinator, struggle with depression, or want to understand more about the mind-body connection, this episode offers a compassionate space for learning and growth.
