About this listen

Ever catch yourself checking Slack in the bathroom or feeling panic when your boss sends a “Can we chat?” message?

These aren’t just bad work habits—they’re trauma responses. In this episode, I unpack 11 common behaviors high performers develop in toxic workplaces, and why they’re actually signs your nervous system is stuck in fight-or-flight mode.

You’ll learn:

  • How your “over-productivity” is actually self-protection

  • Why you re-read every email five times

  • How to start feeling safe again—without quitting your job (yet)

🔁 Each habit comes with a nervous system-based solution you can apply right away.

You’re not weak. You’re not broken. You’re just wired for survival—and it’s time to rewire for peace.
