You will keep letting old triggers write today's story until you ask what they are making you believe about you.
In this episode of ONE | Shift, Mandi Lynne rounds out the unmet needs conversation with a personal story about a phone call that sent her spiraling, and how she paused long enough to ask whether she was hearing her intuition or her trauma. Along the way she shows how every trigger carries a meaning about you, your life, or your future.
Mandi explains how to separate the story from the self, the wound from your worth, and the pattern from the person underneath. Then she shows how locus of control helps you put your energy into what you can influence, so you can feel secure from the inside instead of waiting on something outside you to change.
You'll learn:
The three meanings a trigger usually carries: about you, your life, and your future
How to tell an intuitive hit from a trauma trigger
How locus of control returns your choice when you feel powerless
Why true security is built internally first, then expressed externally
Key Insight: "I always have the agency to transform what happened to me. I just have to learn where, when, and how to intervene."
Because once you know what a trigger means to you, you're no longer at its mercy. This is your call to slow down, ask the question underneath, and choose from your power instead of your past.
