So we can go in a virtuous cycle direction or a vicious cycle direction, and it's our choice.
Feeling overwhelmed by stress and its impact on your recovery journey?

Elizabeth shares her own experiences with trauma and stress, offering a deeply personal perspective that resonates with anyone who's ever felt powerless.
She introduces the concept of the 'window of tolerance' and explains how we can expand it to better manage stress and build resilience.

Her message is clear: with the right tools and mindset, you can turn a vicious cycle into a virtuous one.
