In this episode, we're exploring what it really means when we say “healing isn’t linear,” and why recovery from complex PTSD often feels like one step forward and two steps back. I unpack the difference between a straight-line, productivity-based mindset (linked to perfectionism and wider cultural conditioning) and a more realistic view of healing as cyclical. One that moves more in spirals, seasons, and waves. From a trauma-informed, somatic therapy lens, I explain how the nervous system reveals and processes trauma in layers, only when we have enough safety, support and capacity, and why integration and rest are essential between periods of activation and expansion. Even when old patterns resurface, it doesn’t mean you’re failing — it is progress, gentle and layer by layer.
