If chaos feels more familiar than peace... this episode is for you.
In this episode of Dichotomy with Shannon, we’re unpacking why so many people—especially those raised in survival mode—keep choosing partners, friends, and even family dynamics that mirror their unhealed past. I’m breaking down the difference between real connection and the chaos your nervous system may have mistaken for love.
We’re talking trauma bonds, nervous system wiring, subconscious loyalty, and the gut-punch truth:
Love shouldn't feel like survival.
What you'll learn:
– Why "safe" people might make you anxious
– How trauma bonds form in families, friendships, and dating
– Signs you're addicted to intensity, not intimacy
– Tools to regulate your nervous system and break the cycle
– How to stop betraying yourself for the sake of loyalty
If you're ready to stop calling chaos "chemistry" and start building real peace, this episode is your wake-up call.
