DROPPING KEYS PODCAST · EPISODE 01
What happens when the qualities that make you appear strong, capable, and driven are also the patterns keeping you disconnected from yourself?
In the first episode of Dropping Keys, Jen Thomas shares the personal experiences that shaped her understanding of survival, ambition, and the nervous system.
From growing up feeling unsafe and unseen to building a life around performance and control, Jen explores how survival strategies can become so familiar that we mistake them for personality.
She also shares how burnout, fatigue, tension, and physical symptoms eventually pushed her to question the life she had been working so hard to maintain.
