Midlife Conversations: Are You Living In Survival Mode? Let's find out. Part 1

Thrive with Kira Sabin: A Positive Psychology Podcast

"Trauma makes assholes out of all of us." - Dr. Stephanie Attwater Everybody has stress. It's part of the human experience. But sometimes, that stress seems to NEVER go away and we become chronically stressed or go into "survival mode". Which can bring on a bunch of bullshit that can affect our lives, jobs, relationships, friendships, and even health. Worst part? It makes midlife just that much harder...and midlife is already rough. BUT! You can get out of it! Today on the episode I talk about:

• What is survival mode & where it comes from.
• The 9 signs you might be living in survival mode and what to look for
• The effects on your life from survival mode.

I'll be back with part 2 in a couple of days. From this episode: Comic by Nick Seluk of The Awkward Yeti Resource articles: Article 1 Article 2 Article 3
