You've probably heard of fight or flight, but what about freeze or fawn?
In this episode, Host Anthony Stefanos is joined by Georgia Grace, Matty Mills, and Zahra Al Hilaly for a powerful conversation about trauma responses. They unpack the lesser-known ways people react in moments of fear or danger — like freezing up, dissociating, or people-pleasing — and why these automatic survival responses are not the same as giving consent.
Together, they explore how trauma can show up in the body, how to support someone who’s experienced it, and what it means to build a more trauma-informed, consent-literate culture.
This is an essential listen for anyone who wants to better understand how trauma shapes behaviour, and how we can all respond with more care, empathy and awareness.
Featuring: Georgia Grace (@gspot), Matty Mills (@itsmattymills), Zahra Al Hilaly (@zahuhra)
