Bharat and Jas both identify with this term and in turn their clients are notoriously cycle breakers, whether they know it of not.

Having expectations for specific desired outcomes is common. Without these expectations, you may not be motivated to take any action.

Because Capital T trauma has been heavily studied and talked about, most of us are not aware of the small t traumas that create our subconscious beliefs, our world views, behaviours and even our personalities.
