Understanding Personal Triggers

What’s really holding you back from the life you want? In this powerful conversation, Emma Grede sits down with Dr. Thema Bryant — psychologist, author, and pastor — to unpack the hidden stories, unresolved trauma, and self-sabotaging patterns that keep us from thriving.

Together, they dive into:

• Why so many of us are standing on our own wings — and how to stop.

• The surprising ways fear of failure (and even fear of success) shapes our choices.

• Why women are conditioned to shrink their power — and how to reclaim it.

• The lingering scars of the pandemic we still haven’t healed.

• Practical tools for setting boundaries, rewriting old narratives, and living whole.

Dr. Thema doesn’t just explain the psychology — she offers real steps for anyone ready to stop running, face the pain, and move from surviving to thriving.  If you’ve ever felt exhausted, unworthy, or stuck, this episode will give you the clarity and courage to finally break free.
