Is your body trying to tell you something your mind refuses to hear?

We all carry burdens. Whether it's physical, emotional, or generational, the body keeps score of every unprocessed trauma.

Today, Ginni Saraswati welcomes Nike Global Master Trainer, actor, and wellness advocate Tara Nicolas. After experiencing a jarring loss, Tara channeled her grief into creating a community healing circle specifically designed for communities of color who face cultural barriers to mental health support. When her own health crisis emerged, she discovered how deeply our bodies hold ancestral trauma and the power of releasing control.

You’ll hear about the reality of growing up as a “parentified” child in a Haitian immigrant family and how cultural expectations shaped her into a perfectionist who couldn't afford to fail. She shares the details of a personal health scare and how medical gaslighting compounded her trauma. She also shares how her journey of letting go and reclaiming joy has led her to her authentic self.
