Episode 37: Triggers: What They Really Mean

21 Sep 2025

Description

In this solo episode Belinda dives into something we all experience - triggers.You know those moments when someone says or does something and suddenly you’re in a full-body reaction? Maybe you shut down. Maybe you lash out. Maybe you spiral inside yourself. We often think the person or the situation is the problem,  but really, they’re just pressing on something that’s already inside us.In this episode, Belinda reframes triggers as activators,  messengers and invitations showing us what still needs to be seen, heard, or healed. Instead of spiralling, she shares how to pause, regulate your nervous system, and reflect on the younger parts of you that might still be asking for compassion.You’ll hear about:Why triggers are really activators and how they reveal what’s already inside you.Everyday examples that show how old wounds get stirred up in the present.A simple metaphor (the orange juice squeeze) that will completely shift how you see your reactions.Practical tools to pause, regulate, and respond with choice instead of reactivity.Journal prompts to move from blame and shame into self-awareness and compassion.Being activated doesn’t mean you’ve failed, it means you’re human. And each activation is an invitation to grow, to heal, and to choose how you want to show up.Podcast Sponsor:Evolution Botanicals: real, natural support for your health.
