When it comes to identifying the root of your triggers and your traumas, I like to start thinking in terms of just identifying what the triggers are first, before we can uncover what the actual root of the trauma is. One of the things that I talk often with my clients about is when they see a certain amount of credit card debt come up, they like start freaking out. What is your response? When you're in that place of like, oh shit, things are about to hit the fan here. How do I navigate this? I educate on like what are the typical triggers, right? Like you can be in a fight position where you're like, okay, I'm going to call the credit card company. I'm going to tell them that I'm going to move my credit card payment to this date or is it flight? Like I'm just not going to look at this. I'm going to avoid it.

There's different things that you can do in terms of the different types of triggers that you have. I'm always curious to see what their response is. And what I tend to find is some people are like, I need to get a job or I need to immediately stop spending. That helps me identify what their responses are to a trigger. And then we can start to sort of see the pattern and where that comes up,

where that's rooted from. Where did they learn that? It is a process. It's not something that can

always be discovered in one session, but it's definitely worth it because you can start to

identify it and then kind of work backwards from there.
