## Resource

Why do so many adult children of dysfunction struggle to trust themselves? In this episode of Tammy’s Takes, Tammy pulls from her powerful conversation with therapist Kara Lissy to unpack one of the biggest hidden wounds of growing up in dysfunction: losing trust in yourself. If you grew up around addiction, emotional neglect, criticism, unpredictability, narcissism, or chaos, you may have learned to second guess yourself, overthink decisions, people please, and ignore your own needs in order to survive. But here’s the truth: you are not broken. You were conditioned. Tammy explains how childhood trauma wires the nervous system for survival, why so many adult children struggle with self-doubt and anxiety, and most importantly, how to begin rebuilding self-trust one small step at a time. In this episode, Tammy teaches: ✔ Why dysfunction disconnects you from your intuition ✔ How childhood trauma creates self-doubt ✔ The hidden connection between people pleasing and survival mode ✔ Why overthinking is often a trauma response ✔ How nervous system healing helps rebuild self-trust ✔ A simple practice to stop abandoning yourself Healing is not becoming someone new. Healing is finally becoming safe enough to trust yourself again.
