À propos de ce contenu audio
When everyone in the room is the same, your body feels it before your mind explains it. In this episode of Just Be, therapist Sophia Spencer unpacks what happens inside the social brain when you’re the “only one” in a space, the only woman, the only person of colour, the only person with an accent, the only one who doesn’t fit the mould.
You’ll learn how your amygdala and social rank systems scan for safety, how past experiences of exclusion shape sensitivity, and how to tell the difference between old pain and real bias or discrimination in the present.
Sophia explores why belonging can feel unsafe when sameness dominates, how micro-aggressions and subtle hierarchies activate the body’s alarm, and what it means to build spaces where you don’t have to shrink to fit in.
