How Childhood Trauma Shapes Our Present Lives

Ever wonder why one person can throw your whole nervous system into chaos?

I worked with a woman who grew up in emotional toxicity —

Fear, chaos, a crying mother, an angry sister, a handicapped sibling, and a cruel uncle who tormented her.

She thought she left it behind.

But she didn’t.

She became a school teacher… working with the same kinds of children she grew up around.

She never left home —

She just repeated it.

Then she moved into a “dream house”

Until the loud, drunk, aggressive neighbor showed up.

And instantly, her brain said:

“Danger — uncle.”

It wasn’t the house.

It wasn’t the mold.

It was old emotional experiences being reactivated.

You’re not broken... you’re trained.

And you can retrain it.
