Are you judging me? Or is it my trauma?

From childhood memories of scrutiny to caring what others think in our adulthood, we explore the lasting impacts of judgement on our lives and relationships. How does the feeling of being judged shape our present-day reactions? How do we hold space for the grey areas where assumptions meet reality?

Notes/additional info:

• At 6:20 Melody actually means "if they can't see you, you can't see them" and not the other way around as recorded.
• 7:24: When theory of mind develops, children start understanding people have different opinions and different points of view, and will judge them based on that.
• 7:33: Theory of mind is not a bad thing as it also helps children develop empathy and compassion for others.
