When You’ve Lost Your Spark: Why You’re So Tired, Foggy, and Anxious
Why the earliest moments matter—and how to nurture strength, safety, and lasting health
Course Summary
When we look at a child’s behavior (and adult's behavior, for that matter), it’s never just about “what’s wrong with them.” It’s about “what happened to them.”
From the very first moments of life, our experiences shape the way our bodies, brains, and hearts grow. Stress in early childhood can leave lasting imprints—but here’s the hopeful truth: resilience is not fixed, it’s built. A child’s ability to survive early childhood adversity and trauma—physically, emotionally, and psychologically—depends largely on the trusted adults around them. Love, support, and safe relationships are the greatest predictors of resilience.
Trauma isn’t just an event—it’s an imprint on the developing brain and body, shaping how a child experiences the world and responds to it. Neglect, abuse, and chronic stress alter neurodevelopment in profound ways, creating gaps in regulation, memory, and emotional responses that can persist into adulthood.
But just as trauma wires the brain for survival, nuturing relationships and safe, attuned connections can help rewire it for recovery. Understanding this sequence—from safety, to regulation, to reasoning—is the key to truly supporting children who have lived through overwhelming experiences.
