How to Play with Triggers: Practice Approaching
Show Notes

How on earth do you "play" with trauma, identity, language, skin color...how do you play with potential triggers?! By leaning in, and engaging. Finding ways to build bridges, and share teachable moments. Approaching the scary - and recognizing it's not dangerous. In this episode, explore playing with language and skin color in Spicewood, TX. How would you respond - with neutrality, resistance, or play? Whether it's you who struggles with these moments as a trigger or someone you know - we can all use tools to recondition cultural beliefs that aren't realistic or helpful to our personal experience as a human being. It starts with you, so have a journal on hand or a good friend to dialogue with what comes up for you in this episode. And if you can't play with this today? That's okay too. Stay curious. We'll see you later, or in the next episode friend. 🌿
