Kate shares her journey through narcissistic relationships and being sent away to boarding school—a place meant to heal that instead became deeply traumatizing. When she returned, she wasn’t the same, and her body began to carry the cost.

Now in her early twenties, Kate lives with chronic health issues that make her feel decades older than her peers, isolating her from others her age. We talk openly about the link between trauma and physical illness, as well as experiences with self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and the search for real healing.

This episode explores how unresolved trauma lives in the body—and what it means to begin finding your way back to yourself.

In this episode, Emily talks to Isabella about her own story, how trauma can affect our bodies' ability to heal, and more.
