Listen in and follow the discussion guide to consider how this conversation might impact your story.

Podcast Discussion Guide:

1. What do you think of Aundi's description of her own fierce and lovely? "Fierceness is the willingness to protect the lovely. Setting boundaries is a fierce love for oneself."

2. Aundi talks about our window of tolerance. Do you have a sense of what your window of tolerance is?  She says: "We can get stuck in looking for things to help the pain. From the outside, this may look like indulgence. From a trauma-informed perspective, it's not fully addressing what is going on. It's not what we actually need."

3. Aundi says a Try Softer approach begins with becoming aware of our bodies. Where do you notice responses in your body? Compassionate attention starts with curiosity. "What might I need right now to be more gentle with myself?" Ask yourself this the next time you notice you're reacting to something. 

4. What do you think your attachment style might be? 

5. Have you been in "systems" as an adult that chipped away at your secure attachment with oneself?
