“I am who I was looking for.” - Eboni Banks

This month, we continue to focus on taking the time to re-set. That’s why I wanted to talk to Eboni about using our own intuition (Yes! We have to trust ourselves) to heal from trauma.

As a trauma survivor, Eboni has learned to use her wealth of inner spiritual resources to thrive on her own healing journey and is now inspired to teach people how to do the same. To access their intuition to heal the parts of their lives that are stuck and prevent them from living the life they desire. 

In this episode we talk about:

• Healing trauma intuitively
• What it means to rely on yourself and how to really cultivating a trusting relationship with yourself
• How to have an inner dialogue that supports us rather than beats ourselves up
• And how you are who you’re looking for

My world as I knew it was ending. I was just faced with all of the mistakes that led me to that. And I was just like, 'Why am I here? I don’t want to be here anymore.' I wasn’t trying to physically harm myself, but I was thinking I just wish this would end. I just wanted life to end." - Kay Recede

I absolutely loved talking to Kay Recede about her experience with depression, anxiety and vicarious trauma. Kay is a journalist who recently left TV news. 

In this conversation, we talk about what led her to making that decision.

We talk about:

• What it was like when she wanted life to be over
•  What she did to receive immediate treatment
• Why putting a name to the monsters of anxiety, depression and vicarious trauma was so empowering
• Some of the tools she learned in therapy that she relies on most
• How she has been able to move forward with a love for the present and for life
