If you’ve built your whole life around being capable, dependable, and “fine”… what happens when your body says otherwise?


Dr. Jody talks with Malaysia Harrell about the hidden cost of being the helper—how childhood trauma can fuel achievement, how high-stakes service roles stack layer upon layer of vicarious trauma, and why so many women stay in fight-or-flight until something finally forces a reckoning.


This episode connects the dots between:

  • Overfunctioning and emotional shutdown
  • Repeating patterns in work and relationships
  • Trauma that’s neatly “packed away”… until it isn’t
  • That unsettling moment of success without satisfaction


Content notes: childhood abuse, death row/corrections, murder of a family member, severe illness/sepsis, near-death experience.
