The Connected Community: Exploring Possibility

NLP and Somatics: Rewriting Your Reality

Listen Later

In this episode of The Connected Community Podcast, Nicky Yazbeck sits down with KerryAnne “Ray” Kelley for a thoughtful conversation on trauma, embodiment, and the deeper mechanics of change. Ray shares her lived and professional experience as a trauma-informed, nervous-system-informed practitioner and the creator of the Blueprint Breakthrough, which is a framework designed to reveal how early imprints, belief systems, and adaptive survival strategies shape identity, behavior, and capacity.

 

Together, Nicky and Ray explore how the subconscious mind influences the majority of our daily choices and reactions, often long after the original experiences that shaped them. Rather than approaching healing through self-improvement or force, Ray emphasizes understanding how patterns formed in the first place and how they continue to live in the body, nervous system, and psyche.

 

The conversation weaves through NLP, somatic coaching, visualization, and sound-based regulation, highlighting how present-time tools can be used to work with trauma without reliving it. Ray explains how dissociation, often pathologized, can actually serve as an intelligent survival response and how, when approached skillfully, it can become a doorway back to safety and self-trust.

 

A central theme of the episode is identity: who we believe ourselves to be in relation to our trauma, and what becomes possible when healing is no longer about fixing what’s “wrong,” but about restoring clarity and choice at the root level. Ray offers practical insights into daily practices, belief systems, and somatic awareness that support lasting change, especially for high-capacity individuals who are ready to move beyond collecting frameworks and into embodied integration.

 

This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen more closely to the body, and reconnect with the intelligence already present within the nervous system without performance, bypassing, or self-blame.
