Modulating your voice, canceling your friends, swallowing your opinions, or hiding your needs, all to make sure the person across the table feels comfortable? I have watched incredibly brilliant, vibrant women do this. They turn themselves into origami, folding and refolding until they are small enough to fit into someone else’s pocket. They do it out o... </summary> </entry> <entry><title>From Broken to Brilliant: A Mentor’s Guide to Healing What Happened to You</title><link href="https://willnapolini.com/posts/what-happened-to-you-by-bruce-perry-and-oprah-winfrey/" rel="alternate" type="text/html" title="From Broken to Brilliant: A Mentor’s Guide to Healing What Happened to You" /><published>2026-09-06T18:00:00+02:00</published> <updated>2026-09-06T18:00:00+02:00</updated> <id>https://willnapolini.com/posts/what-happened-to-you-by-bruce-perry-and-oprah-winfrey/</id> <content src="https://willnapolini.com/posts/what-happened-to-you-by-bruce-perry-and-oprah-winfrey/" /> <author> <name>Will Napolini</name> </author> <category term="book-summaries" /> <category term="personal-development" /> <summary> Somewhere in the architecture of your mind, a very old alarm system is still ringing. You can be sitting in a sunlit room, entirely safe, when a minor inconvenience—a blunt email, a change of plans, a misunderstood tone of voice—triggers a physical reaction meant for a battlefield. Your chest tightens. Your vision narrows. You snap, or you freeze, or you run.

We all have a vision of our best self. Maybe it is the writer who finally finishes the manuscript. The entrepreneur who builds the business. The athlete who crosses the finish line. The parent who is fully present. But then life happens. The days get busy. The fears get loud.

We tell ourselves we are just lazy, or tired, or waiting for the right moment.
