Ever walked away from a moment with your kid, partner, or parent thinking, “Why did I just lose it like that?”

In this short therapy-informed Mini Session, you’ll learn the 3 quickest ways to tell when your nervous system is reacting from old pain — not present reality.

Spotting these signs in real time gives you the power to pause, regulate, and avoid spirals, shutdowns, and regret-filled reactions.

Listen now to learn how to catch a trigger before it catches you.

Rebecca Hunter, MSW helps empathic high-achievers (like you) stop overthinking, overcome emotional overwhelm, and actually feel better—for real.
