Dear Little Me

I Am The Scapegoat

On The HEAL BLOG this week don't miss HOW I HEALED FROM DEPRESSION: 5 TIPS TO DEEPLY SUPPORT YOUR HEALING

It usually only takes one toxic parent to change the entire dynamic of a family.  One toxic parent means everyone in the family is scrambling to be in the good books.  Nobody wants to be the scapegoat.  Nobody wants the entire family turned against them.  In this quick chat episode Bailey is talking about how living in fear led to telling a lot of lies in order to stay safe.  How she felt so alone and in so much pain from a very young age and how all of her siblings were turned against her.

Teen trauma

On The HEAL BLOG this week don't miss HOW I HEALED FROM DEPRESSION: 5 TIPS TO DEEPLY SUPPORT YOUR HEALING

Do you remember being a teen? For many of us, it was a tough time. You're no longer a kid and you are not an adult either. Our culture has us believe that teens are trouble, but in reality a teen's brain is wired to start to individuate. We are not supposed to follow our parents and do as they say forever. Teens are meant to question, change and grow. Teen Coach Lainie Liberti, works with teens to help them have a better experience than she did.  Lainie’s mom was narcissistic and her teen years were filled with anger, loneliness and self sabotaging behaviours.  We are left with so many deeply limiting beliefs about ourselves from childhood and Lainie wants us to understand it is totally possible to reprogram those limiting beliefs and heal the generational wounds that have been passed down to us.

How I became an alcoholic

On The HEAL BLOG this week don't miss NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER 9 FACTS

In Part 2 of Dr Constance Scharff's story we hear about her incredible road to recovery. Please listen to Part 1 first to understand the full story.

Dr Constance Scharff grew up in a home where the trauma from her abusive father saw her turn to alcohol at age 11. Somehow she understood that alcohol would negate her need to feel anything. By the time she was in college, Constance was drinking two litres of hard liquor a day. She believed at this point she didn’t have long to live and friends said she would not make it through her twenties. As a small child, Constance was abandoned and uncared for.  She was lost in a family who did not protect her or keep her safe. She believed she drank because she was scared of her father, but when her father died, she realised she couldn’t stop. Dr Constance Scharff is the Founder of the Institute for Complementary and Indigenous Mental Health Research, an author and speaker and since becoming sober 25 years ago, she is passionate about the topics of addiction, recovery, mental health and sharing her story. You can find Dr Constance Scharff on her ⁠WEBSITE ⁠and on ⁠INSTAGRAM⁠ You can find her ⁠BOOKS HERE⁠.

Childhood grooming

On The HEAL BLOG this week don't miss Eight Ways A Controlling Environment Leads To Trauma.

What does child grooming look like? Jan Broberg was just twelve years old when she was abducted by a friend of the family. Her abductor's entire life revolved around planning and executing this kidnapping. He manipulated everybody... Jan, her family, her sisters, the church community. They all believed he was a good guy. But he was a sociopath and he went to extreme lengths to achieve what he set out to do, groom a child to sexually abuse her. One in four girls and one in six boys have been sexually assaulted by someone who is familiar to them. These are terrifying statistics and it is the reason Jan continues to share her story to bring awareness to how deeply manipulative and easily missed this abuse can be.

Hear the full story in Jan's book The Jan Broberg Story and her podcast The Jan Broberg Show.

Jana's trauma began in the womb. Her father would beat her mother as Jana grew inside. As a newborn, the trauma continued for Jana as her very young mother was unable to feed her. In fact, Jana would go on to tick all 10 boxes on the Adverse Childhood Experiences test, a measure of trauma in childhood. But a life changing, out-of-body experience at age twelve gave Jana an incredible insight. In that moment she found her voice and spoke up for the very first time. She found an understanding into why she was here and who her parents really were. Jana has spent a lifetime learning how to heal herself so that she can teach others how to heal and everything she shares is deeply valuable. Jana is the author of Wise Little One, her story of healing from childhood trauma. You can find Jana's book HERE. You can connect with Jana via her website or on Instagram.
