About this listen

In this episode, we are diving headfirst into coping mechanisms. Aka adapted survival skills. They develop for a reason and yet we judge ourselves so harshly for using them. And while it's tempting to think that they are what keep us stuck, we'd challenge you to consider how embracing them may be the key to getting unstuck. We're also going to introduce you to our adaptive child alter-egos, Taz and Ursula. Key Topics in this episode: The "adaptive child" vs. "wise adult" framework Why coping mechanisms persist even when they're no longer helpful How shame creates loops that prevent change The role of nervous system safety in building new habits Identity shifts and the grief that comes with change Practical approaches: naming your inner child, self-compassion over self-bullying 💪 Train With Us: Get access to expertly designed daily workouts at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.tacticworksout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 🥦 Need Personalized Nutrition Support?
