What if the burnout you’re living through isn’t just a phase—but a physics problem? In this groundbreaking conversation, Peter shares how he went from a high-flying investment banker to a man broken by survival mode—and how he clawed his way back with trauma science, organ energy, and deep self-reflection.
We unpack:
- 🔥 What burnout really feels like when you’re still achieving
- ⚔️ The dangerous link between the warrior archetype and survival mode
- 🧠 Why talk therapy alone won’t heal trauma
- 🚫 The trap of dopamine-chasing and external validation
- 📉 Why societal goals are making you sick
- 💥 How Orgone Accumulators and trauma mapping transform healing
- 🌱 Inner child healing and the power of reconnection
- 🧘🏾♀️ Grounding, nervous system regulation, and true recovery
🎙️ What We Talk About:
- Peter’s personal collapse from burnout, lawsuits, and emotional chaos
- The misalignment between success and soul goals
- Why many midlife “crises” are undiagnosed trauma responses
- The connection between unprocessed childhood trauma and adult sabotage
- How reducing external stimulus (and going offline) boosts healing
- The missing link in therapy that keeps people stuck
- Using esoteric healing methods with grounded results
🔑 Key Takeaways:
“If you’re doing everything right but it still feels wrong—you’re following someone else’s blueprint.”
“Survival mode isn’t just stress. It’s an identity you built to outrun your truth.”
“Healing isn’t about reliving the trauma—it’s about grounding the body so it finally feels safe.”
“Your nervous system doesn’t care about your goals—it cares about safety.”
🙌 Why This Episode Matters:
This isn’t just another survival story—it’s the science behind the story. Peter peels back the curtain on how trauma operates in high-functioning adults and how even the most “successful” people can be quietly breaking. If you’ve ever hit the wall and thought, “What now?”—this episode hands you the blueprint.
