Understanding PTSD and Hypervigilance NERVE DAMAGE (with Annakeara Stinson and Jessica Huber)
Marisa chats with Annakeara Stinson, author of Nerve Damage, and Jessica Huber, therapist, to explore PTSD, trauma, hypervigilance, and what happens when the brain gets stuck scanning for danger. They unpack how past experiences can shape our sense of safety, influence how we interpret the world around us, and affect sleep, relationships, and trust. Together, they explore how we can honor the protective instincts that develop after trauma while finding greater flexibility, connection, and pockets of safety as we heal.
