If the holidays tend to bring up more tension than joy, this episode is for you. Britt explores why familiar smells, voices, or family dynamics can awaken younger parts of us—the ones that learned to protect, please, or perform in order to feel safe. Through the lens of somatic experiencing and parts work, she helps you understand how these reactions aren’t regression, but remembrance, and offers body-based ways to reconnect with yourself when old survival patterns surface. You’ll learn how to tend to your inner child with compassion, ground in choice, and gently reparent the parts of you that still ache for safety. This conversation is a reminder that healing isn’t about staying calm—it’s about staying connected, especially to the parts that once had to disconnect to survive.
