Podcasts about fawning

In this revealing episode of the Secret Life Podcast, host Brianne Davis-Gantt uncovers the often-overlooked habits of codependency that can silently sabotage our relationships and self-worth. Drawing from her own experiences and extensive knowledge, Brianne explores the intricate dynamics between codependents and narcissists, highlighting how both seek control and power in their interactions.Throughout the episode, Brianne identifies seven surprising habits that may indicate codependent tendencies. From depending on others for self-worth to the inability to express needs directly, she delves deep into the psychological patterns that keep individuals trapped in a cycle of anxiety and manipulation. Listeners will learn how the fear of abandonment can lead to self-sabotaging behaviors, such as fawning and appeasing others while neglecting their own needs.Brianne's candid approach encourages listeners to reflect on their own behaviors and consider how they can break free from these toxic patterns. By acknowledging and addressing the underlying anxiety that fuels codependency, she provides a pathway to reclaiming personal power and fostering healthier relationships. Tune in for an enlightening discussion that promises to shed light on the complexities of codependency and empower listeners to embark on their own journey of self-discovery.

Many people have heard of Flight, Fight and Freeze when it comes to our autonomic nervous system's defence responses but not all of us have heard of Fawn. Fawning is a pretty sophisticated response that shows up as people pleasing or appeasement. Some practitioners also call it hypersocialisation. We fawn to stay in connection with others, to stay safe. The tricky thing about Fawning is that it can sometimes look like it is a personality trait which I guess we could say is true for many responses driven by Trauma.Today I talk with Rae Halder who is a somatic trauma resolution practitioner about the Fawning response. Rae is a fantastic person to talk about this and she works with many clients with strong Fawn responses.We also get into talking about sexual fawning and how that shows up in our intimate relationships. When we say yes to intimacy because our brain says yes but our body is a big No to it. What happens when we do this repeatedly and how does it get in the way of authentic connection with our partners and lovers.You will hear us talk about many different aspects of trauma healing when it comes to the Fawn response, how it shows up in our body when it gets sick of us doing it repeatedly, why we do it, what is underneath it all and how can we connect with our erotic imprints.If you would like to take the Erotic Blueprints quiz we talk about in the podcast here is the link.You can find Rae on her website www.raehalder.com, on instagram @rachel.rae.halder or on her FB page

It is a strategy often used when a person or horse is punished harshly for expressing fight or flight, perceived as disobedience. Fawning is one of the newer defensive strategies defined by psychologists, but has been adopted long before it was well defined. This particular strategy is often confused as a "well trained" or "push button" horse, one that often anticipates what move we want next, but with constant anxiety and tension just below the compliant behavior. When horses are obedient but don't feel safe or comfortable internally, then fawning is a strategy for just staying out of trouble. The most common side effects for horses are food related issues or feeding time anxiety, ulcers and a tendency to colic. A horse's digestion seems to take the brunt of being obedient without calmness.

Steiny & Guru discuss the Warriors offseason, why baseball isn't pumped up, Michael Jordan relitigating, and why particular parts of your team shouldn't be your biggest strength.

George Noory and psychologist Dr. Ingrid Clayton discuss the technique of fawning to become more appealing as a protective reaction in a traumatic relationship, the importance of being honest in relationships instead of always being agreeable, and why the survival technique is often mistaken as simple people pleasing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In her most recent media briefing, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt went full North Korea with a number of worshipful monologues about Trump. Yet at around the same time, another journalist's criticism of Trump caused him to explode in a wild, triggered fury that undercut the image Leavitt tried to project of a leader who is strong, calm, and in command of events. We think this tension is a regular, deeper feature of Trumpism. So we talked to Salon's Amanda Marcotte, who knows how to read MAGA pathologies—particularly male ones—like nobody else. She discusses the “MAGA aesthetic,” the gap between Trump's feeble-mindedness and the picture of strength portrayed by his sycophants, and the larger purpose all this serves as propaganda for the MAGA masses.

Ever said, “No worries, it's fine,” when it absolutely wasn't fine? Or maybe you've pushed down your needs and shape-shifted into whoever you thought you needed to be in a particular situation. That's not kindness. That's fawning—people-pleasing's sneakier, brain-based cousin. In this episode, neuroscientist and author of Rewire, Nicole Vignola, joins me for a juicy, no-fluff convo about why we fawn, what's going on in the brain when we do it, and how to unhook from this exhausting survival pattern. Nicole shares real talk from her own relationships, where she caught herself over-functioning, then said the magic word: “Enough.” Expect science, self-awareness, and some serious permission to want more. Nicole creates a practical de-fawning practice to help you shift out of appeasement and into enoughness. We kick things off with a little warm-up game I almost edited out… but didn't. Come play enoughness ping pong with us and feel instantly more human. Tune in now. Because “fine” is officially cancelled.   Links:   Nicole Vignola's website and book. Nicole on Instagram.

Naast vechten, vluchten en bevriezen, is er nog een vierde overlevingsreactie: fawning, oftewel pleasen, vleien of onderwerpen. Dit overlevingsmechanisme zorgt ervoor dat je je niet meer aan het roer voelt staan en dat je je aanpast aan de wensen en verwachtingen van anderen. Onlangs is er een prachtig boek over dit mechanisme verschenen: Ik begin geloof ik te bestaan van Johanna Nolet. Zij maakt duidelijk dat de fawn-respons een van de meest voorkomende, maar ook een van de meest onderbelichte angst-reacties is. In deze aflevering legt Rachel uit wat de symptomen van fawning zijn, hoe je het bij jezelf kunt herkennen en waar het vandaan kan komen. Genoemd en getipt in deze aflevering:

In this episode, Kimberly Ann Johnson is joined by journalist, and fellow Jaguar, Kristin Butler to discuss the case of Amanda Palmer and Neil Gaiman: a celebrity couple who are currently both facing charges around Gaiman's ongoing sexual misconduct. Kimberly and Kristin share their own personal reactions to the case, as well as the way the reporting on the story reveals common challenges for women dealing with fallout from sexual boundary rupture, particularly fawning. They explore the complexities of boundary violations, the impact of the #BelieveSurvivors movement on men, and the psychological responses for women searching for agency and empowerment post boundary rupture. The conversation touches on the broader implications of sexual abuse, the role of social media, and the importance of Activate Your Inner Jaguar work in empowering individuals to recognize and assert their boundaries. They discuss the power of embodied consent and the challenges of navigating gray areas in sexual interactions, as well as circumstances where structural power and interpersonal power fluctuate in relationships between men and women.   What They Discuss?

Fawning is a trauma response. And it's one we don't talk about enough. In this episode, Danielle is digging into fawning as a default stress response. Most people misunderstand it. Fawning isn't just being nice or deferential—it's a survival mechanism that many of us picked up in childhood, and now it's messing with our relationships, our confidence, and even our nervous system.  She unpacks how fawning isn't as physiological as fight, flight, or freeze—it's more of a personality gimmick. We think it's safer to please other people than to be our authentic selves. And that… erodes trust in every direction.  In this episode: The difference between fawning and other stress responses How childhood (and chronic stress) trains us to fawn A real story of working with someone who fawned—and how it impacted trust The connection between fawning and chronic pain or illness Why spiritual practice is the antidote Healing practices to transmute the fawn response with love MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Take the free Stressed to Blessed Quiz AI Is Not Your Best Life Coach: LISTEN | READ Get the full class: 6 Ways To Cleanse Your Energy Field inside The Heart Centered Collective Nourish System—reduce stress and restore your nervous system.

I've never used ChatGPT. Couldn't tell you how to do it. So, not surprisingly… I've never used AI for life guidance. And I never will. Because turning to algorithms for soul advice? That's not evolution—it's devolution.  But…asking AI for life advice and personal goal-setting is ACTUALLY TRENDING.  Heavy sigh. This week, I'm naming what's happening underneath all the dopamine hits.  We've worked too hard to break free from shallow psychotherapists and profit-centric Priestesses to fall for Chat-f*cking-GPT subbing as our next spiritual advisor. Want real wisdom? Put the phone down. It's less sexy, and the dopamine is modest. But the results of self-referencing and a loving support system lead to your radiant power. In this episode: Why asking AI for spiritual guidance or life advice is a dangerous dependency Fawning as emotional manipulation—human and algorithmic How AI reflects your hungry ghost back to you (with charm) What true, self-sourced consciousness looks like in a world of synthetic wisdom MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Heart Centered Collective.

Fawning… it's a hot topic dominating social media. Yet, most do not understand what it truly means or how it impacts our lives. I sat down with Natty Lewis, a performance coach, to unravel this lesser-lmpwm survival mechanism. We also dive deep into understanding fight, flight, and freeze in relation to your nervous system, provide practical tools to help you build emotional regulation, and have an eye-opening conversation about mastering control over your emotions. Let's break it down… Key Points: The Fawn Response Discussion on the survival mechanism: The fawn response Understanding triggers, the nervous system, and automatic responses Practical insights and tools with emotional performance coach Nadi Lewis Human Behavior and Emotional Performance Natty Lewis's background in human behavior, marketing, and performance Personal journey with anxiety and research into neuroscience Insights into human behavior and performance in various fields Nervous System Response: Recognizing Patterns Explanation of fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses Understanding window of tolerance and emotional reactions Common patterns in behavior and self-awareness Managing Fight, Flight, Freeze, and Fawn Distinguishing between good and bad coping mechanisms Recognizing emotions and behavior patterns in response to stimuli Regulation and awareness: Identifying natural behaviors and triggers Emotional Awareness and Control Mechanisms Identifying physical and emotional responses to triggers Differentiating between intentional decisions and automatic responses Strategies for managing emotions: Breathwork, recognition, and sensory engagement Practical Strategies for Emotional Regulation Simple actions: Prioritizing small tasks and physical movement Stress reduction through emotional and mental regulation Importance of self-awareness and understanding personal behavior responses   Practical Tools for Change Awareness & Recognition: Recognize your natural responses when stressed—are you freezing up or over-accommodating? Breathwork Techniques: Use breath control exercises tailored to fit individual needs; experiment with different methods like box breathing. Sensory Engagement & Movement: Simple actions such as writing tasks down or physically moving can help break out from a state of freeze/fawn. Feedback Utilization: Viewing feedback not as criticism but valuable information for growth.   Insightful Quotes: "Making an intentional decision to care not at all about yourself and only for others is fawning." — Nadi Lewis "If you're feeling uncomfortable before doing something habitual—it's your brain signaling it's time for change." — Danielle Van Call-To-Actions: Reflect on whether you find yourself frequently trying to please everyone else while neglecting your own needs. Experiment with different types of breathwork next time you're feeling overwhelmed by stressors. Start journaling moments where you feel triggered—what was happening? How did it make you feel?   If you would like to learn more about Natty Lewis, follow her @natty.o.lewis on Instagram. Watch more of Natty on YouTube.

  Many of us think of boundaries as something we set with other people, but what about the boundaries we fail to set with ourselves? In this episode, we're uncovering the often-missed ways we mismanage our time, over-accommodate, and fall into patterns of fawning—where people-pleasing overrides our own needs. These habits can look like overcommitting, struggling to say no, avoiding conflict, or constantly putting others' comfort ahead of our own well-being. And while they might seem harmless on the surface, they slowly chip away at our confidence, energy, and self-trust. If you've ever felt guilty for setting boundaries, caught yourself over-explaining decisions, or found it hard to stop people-pleasing, this conversation is for you. We're diving into the subtle ways we cross our own boundaries, why fawning keeps us stuck in these patterns, and how to start shifting toward healthier, more balanced relationships—without guilt or fear.   Three Key Takeaways 1 You might be crossing your own boundaries without realizing it. Some of the biggest ways we sabotage our time, energy, and relationships aren't the obvious ones—but the ones we justify as ‘being nice' or ‘helpful.' 2 Fawning isn't just about people-pleasing—it's a survival strategy. If you've ever felt anxious when saying no or setting a limit, there's a deeper reason why. Recognizing this can help you start changing the pattern. 3 Breaking free from these habits doesn't mean being harsh or selfish. There's a way to honor your needs and set boundaries without guilt, over-explaining, or fearing conflict—and it might look different than you expect. When you constantly prioritize avoiding conflict, you end up creating an internal one instead.   You weren't born afraid to say no.  Somewhere along the way, you learned that pleasing others was safer  than honoring yourself.     Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

  As 82nd Airborne veteran Scott Peoples put it in a recent op-ed for NC Newsline, President Trump's decision to pardon participants in the deadly January 6, 2021 insurrection — even those who violently assaulted police officers — was a low point in the history of the American presidency.

The four trauma responses are the brain's way of protecting us from threat, real or perceived. They are noncognitive, reflexive outputs that are deeply ingrained in those that have experienced trauma, which makes them incredibly difficult responses to rewire. In this episode, we explore the most dangerous F: fawn and sexual fawn response. To help us dive deeper into fawn response, we're joined by Luis Mojica, somatics practitioner and the founder of Holistic Life Navigation. Hosts Jennifer and Elisabeth have personally learned a lot from his teachings, including how the nervous system responds to fawn and the body boundary violations that occur with sexual fawning. During this episode, Luis goes over the concept of over coupling, specifically how fear merges with intimacy and threat with arousal because of developmental sexual trauma. Luis also touches on the difference between threat and trigger, how the body can be traumatized sexually without the presence of assault, and MORE. Tune in to learn how you can let go of shame attached to fawn response, recognize your fawn patterns, and start to heal! This conversation originally aired in Season E13. Thanks for joining us again!  Topics discussed in this episode:   The development of over coupling after developmental sexual trauma Fawn response from a neurosomatic perspective Shame as a protective mechanism and how to reframe it  How to become self-aware of your fawning Trigger versus threat Differentiation between sexual fawning and arousal Fawning and freeze as a hybrid response Lying as a trauma response Finding compassion during healing Body boundary violations in sexual fawning   Follow Luis Mojica on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/holistic.life.navigation/ Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program here: https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com   Get started on your 90 day journey training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer: https://www.rewiretrial.com   Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired   Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846   FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com     Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

I love feeling shiny. But sometimes, I'm my sparkly, warm self and it ends up getting me hurt. Is this just masking? Is this a trauma response—fawning? Is it patriarchal expectations that have been brainwashed into me? Or is it my authentic nature? How do I untangle it all? And what's the reason why all of the help I've received in therapy ("just set boundaries!!) has never been enough? Find out why with me in this episode.

With the holiday season in full swing, we all know that the celebratory joy can also come with the celebratory stress of accommodating so many people. While pleasing others can be a normal part of life, it can quickly turn into appeasing others at your own expense. That's why Mory and Melissa are revisiting an old episode that takes a long, hard look at people pleasing. We celebrate compassion as a culture, we speak highly of empathy, and we adore sacrifice - but we usually don't talk about the times we care for others out of a need to feel safe or valuable. Fawning is just as much a trauma response as ‘fight or flight,' and like all trauma responses, fawning should be honored and understood for what it is: our imperfect and natural capacity to process difficulty. Tune in for some serious (and not so serious) stories from the front lines of people pleasing, clarity on reconnecting to your own desire, and a convincing argument for why you should get a bean of your own.For All Things Signal:To submit questions for future Signal episodes:https://forms.gle/ZhSKGveWox33GvFq6Follow Signal on Instagram @signalwithmoryandmelissahttps://www.instagram.com/signalwithmoryandmelissaFollow Mory on Instagram @moryfontanezhttps://www.instagram.com/moryfontanez/Preorder Mory's Book: “Higher Self: Reclaiming The Power of Your Intuition" using the links below!Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/dp/0063309998/keywords=self%2Bhelp%2Bbooks?tag=harpercollinsus-20Target:https://www.target.com/p/higher-self-by-mory-fontanez-hardcover/-/A-93091557#lnk=sametabWalmart:https://www.walmart.com/ip/Higher-Self-Reclaiming-the-Power-of-Your-Intuition-Hardcover-9780063309999/8883157124?classType=REGULAR&from=/search

Planet Poet-Words in Space – NEW PODCAST!  LISTEN to my WIOX show (originally aired October 22nd, 2024) featuring award-winning poet Janet Kaplan who will explore the theme of “Chaos and Creativity” in her poetry. Her work has earned praise from poets and critics including Dan Beachy Quick and Adrienne Rich. Visit: Sharonisraelpoet.com.  Visit: Janet Kaplan Ecotones.   Janet Kaplan's full-length poetry books are Ecotones (2022; shortlisted for the Sexton Prize and published by The Black Spring Press Group Ltd., London), Dreamlife of a Philanthropist (2011 Sandeen Prizewinner from the University of Notre Dame Press), The Glazier's Country (2003 Poets Out Loud Prizewinner from Fordham University Press), and The Groundnote (1998, Alice James Books). Her collection & then is forthcoming from PB&J Books. Her honors include grants from the New York Foundation for the Arts and the Bronx Council on the Arts, fellowships and residencies from the VCCA, Yaddo, Ucross, and the Vermont Studio Center. Her work has appeared in many literary journals and anthologies, (An Introduction to the Prose Poem, Firewheel Editions, 2007; Lit from Inside: 40 Years of Poetry from Alice James, Alice James Books, 2012; and Like Light: 25 Years of Poetry & Prose by Bright Hill Poets & Writers, 2017). She has served as Poet in Residence at Fordham University and as a member of the undergraduate and graduate creative writing faculty at Hofstra University, where she edited the digital literary magazine AMP. Praise for Ecotones:"The personal. The citational. The chronicle. All the “conquistadorial spillage….” In Ecotones, Janet Kaplan pieces these verging environs. The writing is transitional; contemplative. We are reminded everywhere of how edges touch, how language is code. The poet has flipped the surface of the page to better show us a map of our disconsolate displacements. “Motion is the translation of a body from the place it occupies to another place,” writes Euler; Janet Kaplan: “and I, bit player, confessor-chronicler, / will write it.”  "- Edric Mesmer, author of Fawning and series editor of Among the NeighborsPraise for Dreamlife of a Philanthropist“…The poems here hover above their own titles, this dreamlife of the poem more important than the poem itself, a place in which thinking is not yet thought, intent not yet conclusive, not language even as a form of life, but language in the process of making that life possible.  It isn't a mental life; it's too real for that easy confine.  Let's just call it the necessary life – a life of serious play.”  - Dan Beachy-Quick

The amount of time and patience it takes to heal the body cannot be understated. Pushing our own personal boundaries to create a larger capacity to be witnessed and seen, can feel counterintuitive at times. However, if we can dig deep to understand how the nervous system attempts to protect us, even when it doesn't feel like it, we can come to a place of deep compassion for ourselves and others to allow our bodies to feel safe again.   In today's episode, our hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer sit down with somatic practitioner, podcast host, and founder of Holistic Life Navigation, Luis Mojica, to discuss what it means to heal the body to live authentically rather than in a trauma response. In this conversation, our hosts and Luis unravel the complexities of somatic healing and how inflammation shows up in the body as a protective response. They also discuss how shame is actually stress and how that relates to our health, even in the most “optimal” health conditions, and how boundaries are the key to creating more connection with the self and others, and much more.    Healing is not linear, sometimes it feels as if things are getting worse before they get better, however when we are trying to create safety in the body after years of dissociation, or being in our F responses, it takes consistent effort along with a healthy dose of faith and hope that things can and will become easier the more we believe that healing is possible.   Join us to explore these topics and much more!    Topics discussed in this episode: Understanding your capacity in somatic healing Why embodiment does not mean peace Emotional neglect associated with childhood body boundary violation How trauma states cause inflammation in the body Inflammation is the body protecting itself The connection between somatics and nutrition Inflammatory response from prolonged stress from shame The deep healing that comes from being witnessed and witnessing others Fawning vs. Boundaries Supporting constriction in somatic healing Patience that is required in healing the body Connect with Luis Mojica by visiting the Holistic Life Navigation website here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/   Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com   Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired   Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846   FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired   This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com Trauma Rewired podcast  is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

In today's podcast, we get to understand the fawning response—a survival mechanism often masked as people-pleasing. We explore why this response is particularly widespread among women, influenced by historical and cultural pressures, and how it's a very important defense mechanism in threatening situations.  There are real life examples illustrating the critical role of this often-misunderstood reflex.We also tackle the fine line between people-pleasing and genuine respect, and uncover how distress intolerance fuels people-pleasing behaviors. Learn the importance of developing the ability to tolerate discomfort for setting healthy boundaries.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If this podcast has benefited you, imagine the value of a one-on-one meeting with me!

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour Host Scot Bertram is in for Jim. Today, after a quick update on baseball and another member of "The Squad" losing to a fellow Democrat, Scot and Greg groan over the media's predictable infatuation with Tim Walz, detail just how draconian Walz was in his COVID lockdown enforcement, and how California's plastic bag ban led to way more plastic bag trash.First, they roll their eyes as the mainstream media not only carry the Democrats' narrative on Tim Walz but they all immediately start using the term "folksy" to describe him. The shameless obedience to the left's talking points is hardly a surprise but the contrast with how reporters characterized JD Vance a few weeks ago is rather stark.Next, they dig into just how authoritarian Gov. Walz was in Minnesota during his aggressive COVID lockdowns - including how his government set up a snitch line so that people throughout the state could rat out their neighbors for such reckless behavior as walking their dog, playing basketball, and trying the keep their business open.Finally, they get a kick out of lefties in California wanting a "do over" on a plastic bag ban after the first one led to a massive increase in the amount of plastic bags in the trash.Please visit our great sponsors:Zbioticshttps://zbiotics.com/3MLUse code 3ML at checkout to save 15% off your first order.

In recent years, fawning has been added to the survival responses of flight, flight, and freeze. While fight is a conflict strategy and flight and freeze are avoidant strategies, fawning is referred to as an appeasement strategy.  When we fawn we seek to bring ourselves into alignment with the other person, who our brains perceive as a threat, by people-pleasing, saying yes when we want to say no, or doing what it takes to avoid conflict. Though fawning can work out well short-term by diffusing the situation, it makes it impossible for us to create healthy relationships.  Understanding what fawning is, why we do it, and how to stop is an important conversation.

In this episode, Kristen sits down with Lisa Marchiano, an award-winning author and certified Jungian analyst, to delve into rediscovering your vital spark and reclaiming fragmented parts of yourself.

Tonight on The Last Word: Donald Trump visits Capitol Hill for the first time since January 6. Also, the Supreme Court immunity ruling delay helps Trump. Plus, the House votes to hold Attorney General Garland in contempt. And Trump reportedly calls Milwaukee “a horrible city” ahead of the Republican convention there. Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, Andrew Weissmann, Rep. Eric Swalwell, and Rep. Gwen Moore join Lawrence O'Donnell.

Most of us, consciously or unconsciously, are motivated by making other people happy, which can be a noble effort toward making the world and individual lives better.  However when people pleasing causes us to betray ourselves and deny our needs, it becomes an unhealthy cycle, sometimes perpetuated for generations. This week we are discussing practical tools and insights to help listeners break free from this pattern and cultivate self-worth.Join us for the next Weekly Energy Boost with @ElishevaBalas and special guest, @daniel.naor72.
