Many high-achieving, capable adults don’t identify as “traumatized” — yet they feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or stuck in patterns they can’t quite explain.
In this powerful episode of Mindset Mastery Moments, Dr. Alisa Whyte sits down with Dr. Shahrzad Jalali — clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, founder of Align Remedy, and author of the upcoming book The Fire That Makes Us — to unpack the often-overlooked impact of silent trauma.
This conversation moves beyond surface-level mindset work and explores how unresolved trauma quietly shapes identity, performance, relationships, and leadership — even in high-functioning individuals who appear “fine” on the outside.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
What silent trauma is and why it often goes unrecognized
How trauma becomes a pattern — not just a past event
Why mindset shifts don’t last without nervous system regulation
How people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overachievement can be survival responses
Practical ways to begin reclaiming emotional agency and personal power
Dr. Jalali weaves together neuroscience, clinical insight, and lived experience, offering nervous-system-based tools that help listeners move from survival mode into regulation, alignment, and self-authority.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things but still feel internally misaligned, this episode gives language to what you’ve been carrying — and illuminates a clear path forward.
