The Dark Side with Verity

Why Nothing Actually Triggers You: The Mirror Episode


Listen Later

In this episode of Dark Side of the Verity, we dive deep into one of the most powerful teachings you can integrate into your life:

Nothing actually triggers you, everything simply reflects what’s asking to be healed.

As we move through the chaos, closeness, and emotional charge of the holiday season, Verity unpacks the truth about triggers, blind spots, and why our loved ones often set us off the most. This episode is a gentle reminder that your reactions are not failures, they’re invitations.

Inside, you’ll explore:

  • Why triggers are mirrors, not attacks

  • How lived experience shapes communication (and misunderstandings)

  • The nervous system science behind stress responses

  • Why family can activate old patterns faster than anyone

  • How to pause, regulate, and return to your grounded self

  • What it means to hold grace for yourself and others

  • The beauty of having people who truly have your back and losing them too soon

Verity also shares practical tools to support you through this season, including her signature Nervous System Reset™ and how facilitators continue to use the 14-Day Reset inside the VIDYA Wellness Club to shift emotionally heavy moments into deeper clarity and connection.

If you ever find yourself overwhelmed, misunderstood, or reactive, especially around the people you love, this episode is your anchor.
