The Humble Pie
Trauma Recovery Coaching That Meets You Where You Are
I’m Jane Davidson, a certified trauma recovery coach and trauma-informed educator based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I work with adults who were taught to be strong instead of supported,
reasonable instead of real, and grateful instead of honest.
If you have carried too much for too long, The Humble Pie is our place to begin again with honesty, softness, and a nervous system that no longer has to apologize. I offer online trauma recovery coaching and a free 30-minute consult so you can see if working together feels right.

Understanding Yourself:
A Guide for the Curious Human
The Learning Library
A simple place to explore emotional intelligence, trauma literacy,
and the nervous system at your own pace.
This space exists for people who are curious about themselves, not because something is
“wrong,” but because something no longer fits.
Many of us wake up to new awareness about trauma, systems, relationships, or our own patterns and expect clarity to follow. Instead, we feel unsettled, quieter, more uncertain than before. That disorientation isn’t failure. It’s the nervous system and conscience adjusting to a new truth.
The Learning Library offers language, context, and orientation for that in-between space. Nothing here is meant to diagnose, fix, or instruct you. These pages help you understand what you’re experiencing, name patterns without shame, and move at a pace that feels safe and human.
You don’t need to read this in order or agree with everything. Take what resonates, leave what doesn’t, and trust your own timing. Curiosity, not certainty, is the starting point here.
This isn’t a program or a prescription. It’s an invitation to understand yourself
with more compassion, clarity, and self-respect.
Where Would You Like to Begin?
Understanding how your body responds to life, and why it matters.
You’ll also learn why your body reacts faster than your thoughts, how overwhelm shapes communication, and why your nervous system isn’t “overreacting”. It’s protecting you. These articles help you understand your reactions with more compassion, accuracy, and curiosity.
Understanding why you learned the strategies you did,
and how they shaped your sense of self.
This section explores the patterns that form when the nervous system adapts to overwhelm, fear, or instability. It helps you recognize how attachment, conditioning, and early experiences have
shaped how you relate to yourself and others.
