In Real Time with Tori Littlejohn
In Real Time with Tori Littlejohn is a vulnerable, raw, and transparent journey of transformation as Tori actively embodies the woman she is becoming out loud and in real life.
This podcast is a safe, honest space for people who are tired of “just think positive” healing and are ready to actually become different through lived experience.
In each episode, we explore what’s really happening beneath our behaviors. Revealing our patterns, recognizing what shaped them, regulating the nervous system, reframing the story we tell about ourselves, and learning how to respond differently in real life.
Through personal stories, honest reflection, and emotional intelligence, In Real Time gives language to what people feel but can’t always name. As we integrate spiritual wisdom and scientific insight to support real, embodied change.
This is a front-row seat to healing, learning, and becoming… in real time.

Self Aware.. and Still Stuck | Episode 2
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You can name your trauma.
Quote the books.
Understand your patterns.
…And still react the same way.
In this episode, we talk about the truth many people don’t say out loud:
Awareness without nervous system safety creates loops.
We break down why self-awareness alone does not equal change, and how burnout cycles, emotional shutdown, over-giving, and repeated relationship patterns are often nervous-system responses… not personal failures.
Inside this episode we explore:
• Why “knowing better” doesn’t always lead to “doing better”
• The nervous system’s priority of safety over growth
• Overthinking vs. embodied action
• Repeating relationship dynamics
• Emotional burnout and shutdown cycles
• The difference between grace and enabling yourself
I also introduce the foundation of my healing framework and the pillars we’ll be exploring throughout this season that gives you language, tools, and real-life application instead of abstract motivation.
You’re not broken.
You’re responding the best way you know how.
Self-awareness is the door.
Regulation is the key.
