## Resource

So many of the painful patterns we experience in life seem impossible to break, no matter how hard we try to change. But what if those patterns are not a reflection of who we are, but rather subconscious survival responses shaped by experiences from our past? In this episode, Sarah explores the trauma feedback loop and explains why the nervous system often seeks out and recreates familiar dynamics, even when those patterns continue to cause pain and keep us stuck.
