Raised in Chaos, Rewired for Peace
Manage episode 519651274 series 3670141
Reign’s childhood normalized abuse, control, and emotional suppression—so she dissociated to survive. As an adult, she chose radical responsibility, nervous system regulation, and subconscious reprogramming to end the cycle. Together we unpack narcissistic family dynamics, why blame is a seductive addiction, and how emotions need witnessing—not white-knuckling. This episode is a blueprint for turning survival patterns into self-leadership.
Highlights
- Survival mode ≠ safety: when the body lives in fight/flight and calls it “normal”
- Narcissistic parenting 101: covert vs. overt traits and the eggshell life
- Blame as the universal addiction—and the moment ownership sets you free
- Subconscious work explained like a network: why “the mind answers questions”
- Emotional processing that actually works (feel it → name it → release it)
- Body talk: eczema, depression, anger as data—not defects
- Forgiveness as self-liberation, not absolution
🎙️ What We Talk About
- Self-Awareness: spotting autopilot, naming survival rules you inherited
- Reprogramming: nervous system first, goals second; reframing beliefs; subconscious Q&A
- Reinvention: you can’t thrive in the identity built to keep you small
- Masculine/feminine energies inside healing (containment + softness)
- Generational codes: why your DNA carries more than eye color—and how to interrupt it
- Emotional hygiene: practical ways to witness, feel, and metabolize
🔑 Key Takeaways
“You’re not broken—you were protecting yourself.”
“Accommodations and practices aren’t crutches; they’re bridges to safety.”
“Blame feels powerful until you realize it handcuffed your growth.”
“You can’t be the woman you’re becoming while wearing the costume you survived in.”
