Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections.

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE A LEADER? 7 Powerful Ways Leadership from Stillness Empowers Sensitive People This piece reframes WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE A LEADER? as calm presence rather than theatre. I argue sensitive, trauma-affected youth can lead through stillness—anchoring ritual, mindful presence, energetic boundaries and trauma-informed compassion. Expect research, practical space and voice tips, personal stories for spiritually aligned mentorship and guidance now. Do you fear leading because it might expose your softness? If the answer is yes, you’re exactly who I’m writing for. First published- 03/07/2009 13:53 Leadership from Stillness:  Gentle Leadership for Sensitive Youth I start with that heavy question — WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE A LEADER? — because I want us to stop measuring leadership by volume.
