Sonya Brewer is a trauma specialist and relationship expert who specializes in creative life and relationship design for overachieving trauma survivors and their partners. She helps trauma survivors feel more alive, connected and authentic so they can create the lives and relationships they truly want.

In this conversation Sonya shares vulnerably about doing her own deep work, including the processes she went through to heal her childhood emotional neglect and other traumas. She also talks about how her own healing has changed her work as a therapist and healer.

Here's some of what we talked about:

• Discovering Breath Work and somatics
• Finding the right therapist and sticking with her for decades!
• Becoming a healer and leaving corporate behind
• Healing and retrieving young parts of herself
• Understanding and healing from emotional neglect
• Feeling the help, love and healing of her ancestors
• The limits of talk therapy in accessing some of our deepest healing
• Insights on Couples and Complex PTSD (and an upcoming book!)
