Living a Triggered Life Podcast

 Is this 3rd Episode @ Sea Keith and Roxanne record from Viejo San Juan at Café Colajo, reflecting on travel, crowds, and how everyday interactions can trigger deeper reactions. They discuss the strain of being judged while traveling and the constant activation that comes from encountering unkind or presumptive people. They recount a painful experience in a boutique in the British Virgin Islands where body shaming and assumptions about privilege led them to choose a different response: breathing, protecting their peace, and changing the way they fight by using their voice later and reporting the incident rather than reacting in the moment.

In this 2nd episode @ Sea Keith and Roxanne reflect on how family dynamics, bystanders, and past abuse interrupted their dreams and relationship. They discuss unprocessed grief, the pressure of being woven into others' decisions, and the slow work of healing through honest conversations, therapy, and mutual support. Tune in for a candid look at communication, resilience, and reclaiming the life they were meant to build.
