Ep #247: Functional Freeze (Part 2): Real-Life Stories of How It Came to Be This Way

#247: Last week, we began a vital conversation about the mixed nervous system state of functional freeze: what it looks like in practice and how commonly it shows up for those of us prone to emotional outsourcing. This week in part two, we're asking the question: how did it get this way?   You'll hear multiple real-life examples from my own life and coaching work of experiences that lead to functional freeze. It's so easy to beat yourself up when you realize you're in the pattern, but functional freeze is a brilliant survival skill you learned in childhood. Hearing other people's experiences might help you see that there's nothing wrong with you, and help you understand how to change the pattern.    Get full show notes and more information here: https://victoriaalbina.com/247
