TRIGGER WARNING:

This episode includes sensitive conversations about childhood trauma and sexual abuse. Please listen with care. You may want to listen to this episode together with someone you trust, or return to it at a time when you feel safe and supported.

There is a part of you that learned very early how to survive.

A part that stayed quiet, adapted, endured and is still waiting to be seen.

In this deeply moving episode of The New Normal, I sit down with actress, activist, and trauma-survivor AnnaLynne McCord for an honest conversation about inner child healing, trauma, and what it truly means to reclaim your life.

We speak about why unhealed trauma doesn’t disappear but gets passed on, how the nervous system holds memories the mind forgets, and why real freedom begins the moment we stop running from our feelings.

Please listen with care — and with compassion for yourself.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why trauma lives in the body, not just the mind
• How inner child wounds shape our relationships and choices
• What EMDR and somatic healing can unlock
• Why compassion is more powerful than repression
• How personal healing contributes to global change
• 
  

If this conversation touched you, I invite you to share it with someone who might need it — and to subscribe to The New Normal for weekly conversations about healing, truth, and returning home to yourself.

With love,

Laura
