Episode 3 The Cost of Being Nice: How Childhood PTSD Affects All Aspects of Life.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the need to be nice, constantly saying yes to others while neglecting your own needs, this episode is for you. You'll discover how this habit of "being nice" often stems from childhood trauma, leading to anxiety, depression, and even physical sickness.
Host Robert Gene, a leading expert in stress and trauma, along with co-host Crystal Derksen, will unpack how trauma really works from inside the brain and how many different coping skills we develop like people-pleasing and how it affects your well-being. You’ll learn that being nice isn't just a simple personality trait; it's a coping mechanism formed from early experiences that teach you to prioritize others before yourself. This episode will help you understand how these ingrained patterns can leave you feeling exhausted, guilty, and unworthy, all while keeping you stuck in a cycle of self-sacrifice. Robert challenges traditional views on trauma, emphasizing that it's not a disorder but rather an emotional education that impacts how you navigate relationships and your own well-being. You'll gain a fresh perspective on how childhood experiences shape your adult behaviors and you've been conditioned to serve others at the cost of your own happiness. This conversation will empower you to rethink what trauma means, allowing you to reclaim agency in your life and prioritize your own needs without guilt.
