Sometimes, the body - and our younger selves - remember before we do. In this tender episode, I share what it was like to meet my inner child in a moment of shutdown—and to hear her say, "This is really hard for me." Join me as I share a personal *story about navigating the freeze response—especially when it shows up as **sexual numbness. I explore how past trauma shaped my body's protective shutdowns and how gentle tools like breathwork, inner child dialogue, somatic awareness, and bilateral tapping helped me begin the slow, sacred work of thawing.

If you've ever wondered why connection can feel so hard, even when you want it, this episode might help you feel less alone.

*I have permission from my husband to share this experience - all g-rated.

**Trigger Warning - I share generally about subtle sexual abuse as a child & teen. So please take care of yourself as needed.
