Our Triggers are our teachers.

Maybe you don’t actually visit pages that trigger you, but they still come up on your feed somehow.

🤔 What’s wrong with this algorithm??

Now you’re thinking, I need to take a break from social media.

But you’re triggered in real life as well…

Well I need to take a break from… people…

Do you see the pattern here?

This message isn’t to suggest we need to resist what is bothering/triggering us. It’s a spiral that eventually ends in loneliness.

It’s a CTA for us to become more curious about our triggers. To open up the inner conversation about:
Why seeing or hearing this bothers me so much?
How have I been similar but hate seeing myself as “bad”?
How is this perspective familiar to me/from my past?

You’ll either begin to retreat, or attack. And I’m here to remind you that you can be in WAY more spaces than you think, learning from your triggers, and open to more love than you Can even imagine… without you needing to change.anyone.or. Anything.outside of you.

Just take a moment to think of the pages that trigger you the most, and what their messages mean to you, and begin to take your power back.

I’m not saying it’s as simple as watching this reel, but maybe you’ll care more about how you feel and get curious about the triggers instead of allowing them to dictate your reactions.

I love you 🤍
