“Many women move into survival mode quietly.
Not because they’re weak, but because at some point it wasn’t safe to fully stay.”
You might notice...
You leave your body (go numb, go blank, or ‘float away’) in social situations…
You people-please, fawn, or say yes when your body says no
You feel flat, numb, or exhausted after being around others
You’re constantly managing yourself — your reactions, your emotions, your energy
You get home and wonder why you feel so drained, irritable, or disconnected
And you may not even call this “trauma” or “anxiety”.
You just know something in you is tired of holding it all together.
This is not because you’re broken — it’s because your nervous system learned how to survive.
What if your body hasn’t been betraying you —
but protecting you?
Many women move into survival mode quietly.
Not because they’re weak, but because at some point it wasn’t safe to fully stay.
So your body learned to...
brace
scan
please
disconnect
leave before it was overwhelmed
This series is not about fixing you.
It’s about helping your system soften, so you don’t have to keep leaving yourself just to get through the day.
“This is survival mode — and it can show up in the most ordinary moments.”
This is not a course. It’s not a masterclass. And it’s not something you need to “do” perfectly.
It’s an experience you let land.
Softening Out of Survival Mode is a 5-part, gently guided video experience designed to help you:
understand why your body reacts the way it does
recognise survival responses like fawning, freezing, or dissociation
feel safer staying present in your body — especially around other people
soften internal tension without forcing change or “pushing through”
reconnect with yourself in a way that feels calm, steady, and real
“This is a gentle, nervous-system-safe experience.
You can go at your own pace.
Nothing here will push you or overwhelm you.”
You'll be able to stay in your body a little longer
Social situations feel less overwhelming
You’re more present with your children, partner, and friends
You feel less pressure to manage yourself or others
There is more space, softness, and ease inside you
You won’t be “finished” with survival mode —
but you will feel more at home in yourself than you do right now.
And that matters.

This series is for women who:
feel exhausted by managing themselves
notice people-pleasing, fawning, or shutting down
struggle to stay present in social or family settings
want relief, not another thing to “work on”
sense there is a calmer way to live inside their life
You do not need to have a diagnosis.
You do not need to understand trauma.
You do not need to relive your past.
You just need a willingness to meet yourself gently — right where you are.
I’m Hayley Latham.
For many years, I looked confident and capable on the outside —
while inside, my body was in constant survival.
I know what it’s like to leave your body to cope, to manage yourself through life, and to feel disconnected from your own presence.
The work I now do — and the guidance in this series — comes from lived experience, professional training, and years of walking women back home to themselves.
As a trauma-informed hypnotherapist and identity coach, I’ve lived this work from the inside out.

If your system is tired of bracing…
If you’re ready to feel safer staying in your body…
If you want to be present for your life, not just get through it…
You’re warmly invited into Softening Out of Survival Mode.
This is a gentle beginning — and sometimes, that’s exactly what creates the deepest shift.
You’ll get instant access right after checkout.
You don’t need to become someone else.
You just need to feel safe being who you already are.
