This was a helpful talk to deepen the understanding of what is happening underneath a strong reaction. I was initially drawn to the title of this talk to support healing from a traumatic life changing experience and the associated grief. So it was hard for me to connect with the content this first time around given my own situation. The disclaimer at the end about healing from trauma was extremely important and I appreciated the delineation of triggers that are re-traumatizing. I recommend having the disclaimer earlier in the talk or adding it to the talk description to provide that the helpful clarification at the beginning.

I just listened to the talk a second time around, now that I am in a stronger place, and I was able to receive and see the application of this talk in daily life and in dealing with the challenging behaviors of others. I really valued the guidance to discern between a disagreement and trigger, especially given the current political climate. I also appreciated the line: "reactions come from wounds, responses come from wholeness" and how our reactions invite us to do more inner work. Overall, this talk provided a helpful and healthy perspective and I really liked the encouragement to transition from reaction to curiosity.

Thank you Lou for this inspiring podcast. Asking our God to help us to learn and grow with challenges and triggers is surely a good advice 🙏 👍

Thank you 😊 I appreciated that. The part that stuck is belief in wound / hurt. Then address that. It's exactly what I did with a relationship. Thank you so much!

Thanks for tying in my triggers with what ails inside of me. It’s helpful to me to be reminded that healing comes from within.

Amazing talk! I will try to use my triggers to learn so I can diffuse them instead of running from them!
