Some children learn that performing is the safest way to stay connected, and that pattern follows them into adulthood.
Dr. Caroline Böttiger, psychotherapist and neuroscientist, explores how childhood trauma shapes the way we behave at work, why high achievers often struggle when they’re asked to lead people, and what trauma awareness could mean for how we build healthier workplaces.
A rare and honest conversation about attachment styles, psychological safety, and the patterns most organisations never talk about.
