Dr. Robyn Koslowitz

Let's say you're moving, right?

Or you're making a wedding.

or there's something major going on.

There's a family Thanksgiving dinner and everyone's coming over and there's a lot of moving pieces.

It's gonna be stressful.

You are going to want me to criticize people.

This is your default.

When I feel stressed, I criticize people.

I am deselecting the criticizing people.

I am not allowed to criticize anybody today.

Every time I want to criticize someone, I'm gonna have to talk in a daffy duck voice or I'm gonna have to think, okay?

If I need to criticize someone, if I'm like, don't put that, even something like don't put that on that counter, I can only sink it.

I can't say it.

And what's your trauma app going to do?

All good apps.

It's going to say, warning, deselecting these permissions is going to destabilize the entire system.

Are you sure you want to proceed?

It's going to do that by making you anxious.

And you're going to say, yes, I want to proceed.

And then that's what you're going to do.
