If you’re like me, there was a time when everything seemed to be going just fine.  Until it wasn't. I don't know what it's been for you. Maybe a divorce. Sickness. Rejection. Addiction. Abuse. Bankruptcy. Loss. Whatever it is, I know it has you asking, "Can my life ever be good again?" But what if I told you that your place of trouble is also the place where hope is found? I know it doesn't make sense but from what I've seen, it's how God does things. And that means you're not stuck – and you're not staying here. He's the One who says, "I will...transform the Valley of Trouble into a gateway of hope." (Hosea 2:15)  In His hands, things are going to be more than okay.  You are going to be more than fine.  For more on faith + emotional & spiritual wellness, visit www.UncommonValor.co

222. Relational Regulation (Triggers & Intrusive Thoughts Pt. 2)

Jun 11, 2025

Triggered traumas and intrusive thoughts can leave you feeling profoundly fearful and alone. Regulation techniques can help calm the nervous system, but an underlying sense of loneliness and vulnerability may remain.

In this episode, I share about the role of relationships in regulating emotions, and how an early lack of support can cause distress into adulthood. Also, I share ways to incorporate your relationship with God into a regulation experience that not only deepens your sense of peace, but invites healing into wounds of emotional misattunement, abandonment, abuse, and neglect.
