“How do you know the difference between regulated activation and fight or flight activation,” was a question asked in one of our Building Allyship focus groups.
The tragedies and events of the last few years have provoked many to question how they show up in the world, for themselves and for others. This has led to people speaking up to power more and taking steps to dismantle a culture that does not serve us.
But continuously showing up in advocacy from a triggered state is helpful to no one. So how do we address it?
In this episode, I brought Dr. Lisseth London back to educate us on collective trauma, fight-or-fight advocacy, and what steps we should take to make sure we are staying regulated while showing up for each other.

Neighborhood Action Steps:

Create your own plan for when you are triggered or in a state of burnout and determine who your accountability person will be.
