RETREAT Check: Working with the Flight Response

Have you ever talked yourself out of an opportunity you were qualified for? Delayed sharing an idea? Stayed busy to avoid something uncomfortable? That may not be humility. It may be your flight response.In this episode, Dr. Shauna Sobers continues the series on using the Resilience Tree™ model to self-regulate during trauma responses. This time the focus is the flight response and a practical tool she calls the RETREAT Check.We often picture "flight" as physically running away, but at work it's far subtler: conflict avoidance, procrastination, perfectionism, overworking, and shrinking yourself when you've been invited to shine. For women leaders of color especially, these responses can be intensified by bias, exclusion, and environments where visibility has carried real risk.In this episode, you'll learn:<ul><li>What the flight response actually looks like in the workplace</li><li>How each part of the Resilience Tree™ (Roots, Branches, Fruit, and Environment) supports you when fear says run</li><li>Why trust is often the missing ingredient, and Gallup's four universal needs of followers</li><li>The full RETREAT Check framework: Recognize, Examine, Tend the Roots, Reach Through the Branches, Evaluate the Environment, Aim for the Fruit, and Trust and Take One Step</li></ul>Retreat isn't always avoidance. Sometimes retreat is restoration, and the wisdom is in knowing the difference.Free companion worksheet: Walk through the full RETREAT Check on your own time.
