I really enjoyed this post, Derek. It is so right on, and I look forward to listening to your dialog with Rachael. I can't believe I've never heard the term fawn as one of the fear responses. It's perfect.

I’m so glad you enjoyed it, Jane! Getting introduced to the Fawn Response completely changed my perspective on emotional regulation. It was so helpful for me—I hope you find the same!
