Survival mode gets rewarded—until your body, marriage, and joy send the bill. Lara shares the cost of high-functioning pain (multiple miscarriages, misaligned marriage, radical redirection) and how choosing truth over performance rebuilt her life. We walk through Leticia’s 3-phase exit—Self-Awareness → Reprogramming → Reinvention—and show you how to apply it when peace feels foreign and your nervous system only trusts the hustle.
- Survival mode = “functioning while falling apart.”
- Peace can feel unsafe; your body needs new reps of safety.
- Truth-telling in parenting breaks generational survival training.
- Alignment is clear intention + clean energy (no manipulation, no masks).
- Triggers are teachers; breakdowns are invitations.
🎙️ What We Talk About:
- Conditioning survival: why “strong” is often just silenced pain
- The lighthouse: practical self-awareness that changes your next choice
- Therapy vs coaching vs intuitive guidance—what helps when
- Somatic cues: reading your body before it hits the brakes
- Parenting from truth (not performance) so your kids keep their knowing
- Sales trauma & building values-led businesses without the grind
- Micro-reflections: how to journal your day into breakthroughs
🔑 Key Takeaways:
“Autopilot is not peace—it’s avoidance with good PR.”
“Life isn’t happening to you; it’s happening for you.”
“Your nervous system needs evidence, not speeches.”
“You’re not here to endure your life. You’re here to live it.”
🧩 Try This (5–10 minutes):
- Trigger audit: Note one moment today that spiked you. Later, ask: What did I feel? Where did I feel it? What story did I tell? What did I need?
- Values micro-check: Before you say yes, ask: Is this aligned with my top 3 values? If not, it’s a no—or a renegotiation.
