Why Changing Your Mind Feels “Wrong” When You Grow Up With Toxic Parents
Manage episode 523459019 series 3589271
In today’s episode, Torie breaks down why cycle breakers panic-agree to things they don’t want to do, why your body goes into survival mode when you try to set limits, and why allowing yourself to change your mind is a crucial part of healing.
Listen to learn:
- Why your nervous system floods when you’re put on the spot
- Why saying yes too quickly is a trauma response, not a personality flaw
- How to recognize when an impulsive commitment no longer aligns with your capacity
- Why changing your mind is a healthy, adult skill even if your parent “freaks out”
- How to start giving yourself permission to choose what’s right for you
