Do you ever snap at someone you love—or completely shut down—and wonder, What’s wrong with me?

Here’s the truth: There’s nothing wrong with you. That’s your protector part showing up.

It’s your nervous system trying to keep you safe the way it learned a long time ago.

These parts—like the people-pleaser, the overachiever, or the avoider—once protected you.
But today? They’re keeping you stuck in old stress patterns and robbing you of peace, joy, and connection.

You have the power to shift.

Next time you’re triggered, pause and ask: Which protector is taking the lead—and what is it trying to protect me from?

If you want support understanding and healing your protector parts so you can lead with calm, clarity and confidence, DM me “PROTECTOR.”
