Trigger warning.
This isn’t academically airtight yet but if you’re paying attention, you see the pattern.
Our most common enemy as humanity isn’t politics.
It isn’t money.
It isn’t even disease.
It’s unhealed trauma.
And the wildest part?
It’s socially rewarded.
“Hustle culture” is hypervigilance in a cute outfit.
“Making things happen” is control dressed up as ambition.
“Being selfless” can quietly become people-pleasing, over-giving, self-sacrifice… and eventually self-abandonment.
Sustain these behaviors long enough and the body pays the price.
Because trauma isn’t just a story in your head. It’s a physiological state.
Chronic sympathetic activation.
Inflammation that won’t resolve.
Nervous system dysregulation that becomes your baseline.
And then we’re shocked when it turns into:
- Inflammatory disease
- Addiction
- Burnout
- Relationship breakdown
- Toxic parenting
- Religious shame
- Corrupt leadership driven by unintegrated wounds
- We keep trying to think our way out of something that lives in the body.
- Autoimmunity

As taught in The Body Keeps the Score, trauma is stored in the nervous system, in the tissues, in implicit memory not just in narrative recall.
Which means healing must be somatic.
We don’t “out-logic” hypervigilance.
We teach the body safety.
We don’t shame people-pleasing.
We build capacity for boundaries.
We don’t suppress inflammation.
We resolve the threat signal underneath it.
If you’re exhausted from performing strength…
If you’re done with high-functioning survival mode…
If you’re ready for body-based transformation
