#008: Dr. Susan Campbell - From Triggered to Tranquil
Where the Road Bends - A podcast by Steven Schlafman - Fridays

I had the pleasure of connecting with Dr. Susan Campbell, a pioneer in the authentic relating movement, psychologist, and author of more than ten books including From Triggered to Tranquil: How Self-Compassion and Mindful Presence Can Transform Relationship Conflicts and Heal Childhood Wounds. In this engaging and thought-provoking conversation, we delve into Dr. Campbell's transition from academia to private practice, where she served and trained thousands of couples. We also explore the concepts of Authentic Relating and its role in discovering our true nature, as well as the importance of regulating our nervous system and navigating emotional pain. We also unpack how to understand personal control patterns, utilizing trigger work as a catalyst for personal growth, and leveraging mindful awareness to transform old behavioral patterns. I hope you enjoy my wisdom-filled conversation with Dr. Susan Campbell.
