このコンテンツについて

In this episode, we dive into the reality of emotional overwhelm—how it hijacks your mind and body, and why it’s so common for those living with CPTSD. Gregory brings warmth, validation, and a dose of gently irreverent humor as he guides you through the science behind overwhelm, shares practical grounding techniques, and explains how self-compassion can be a lifeline in the storm. Real listener stories remind you that you’re not alone, and you’ll walk away with fresh hope, knowing your feelings are valid and there are tools to help you find steadier ground.
