Through Their Lens – How Your Nervous System Shapes Relationships

Have you ever been blindsided by someone’s reaction and thought, where did that come from? Whether it’s a toddler refusing to put on their shoes, a teen with an unexpected attitude, or even a coworker’s sharp remark, our interactions are shaped by something deeper than we realize—our nervous system state.

In this episode of Building Resilience, we explore how our nervous system acts as a filter, shaping the way we see and respond to the world. When we start understanding this, everything shifts.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

✅ Why we react the way we do—and why our kids, partners, and coworkers do too

✅ How past experiences shape our nervous system responses

✅ Why some people keep repeating unhealthy relationship patterns

✅ How to identify nervous system states (Team Hyper, Hypo, or Resilient)

✅ Practical strategies to respond with intention rather than react

✅ How regulating your own nervous system can shift the entire dynamic of a relationship

If you’ve ever wondered why certain people trigger you or why some relationships feel harder than others, this episode will help you see interactions through a new lens—one that leads to greater understanding, connection, and resilience.
