When someone we love has experienced trauma, our instinct is often to do everything we can to make them feel better. But is doing more always the answer? In this episode, we explore the psychology of trauma, pain and dissociation, why someone might seem distant or disconnected, and how we can offer comfort, co-regulation and a sense of safety without adding pressure. We also look at why supporting someone through trauma can be difficult for us, too.Register Here For The Upcoming Workshop: When Your Brain Won't Switch OffJoin me for a live, practical psychology workshop to quieten the mental noise, break free from overthinking and find more calm in everyday life.

You’ve bought the course, booked the support, made the plan and promised yourself you’ll start tomorrow… so why aren’t you doing the damn thing? In this episode, we explore what might really be underneath avoidance when it comes to working with your dog and how to help yourself.And if you need a bit of extra support…..One thing I love for keeping myself on track is a daily reminder and a commitment to do the thing immediately, which is exactly why we created the 30 Day Reset. Every day you'll get one simple task by email that takes 10 minutes or less, and because the tasks don't follow a sequence, there's no “getting behind” if you miss one; podcast listeners can join for just £7 (usually £30) here: https://pawsupdogs.samcart.com/products/the-30-day-reset-----------------------------------------1.

Your dog does the thing, you get triggered, you react, and then comes the guilt, shame and promise that next time you'll handle it differently. In this episode, we're talking about breaking those emotional patterns, forgiving yourself for the moments you're not proud of, giving yourself another chance, and allowing other people to support you when things feel hard.Are you living with depression or low mood?
