In this episode of Girl, I’m Making It Through, Tracy Marchelle sits down with Dr. Mara Mesa, Licensed Mental Health Counselor and fellow veteran, for a powerful conversation about trauma, shame, PTSD, and the quiet ways survival mode can stay with us long after the storm has passed.

Together they explore how the nervous system carries stress, why high-functioning women often struggle privately, and what it means to begin quieting the storm within.

This episode is for the woman who has survived a lot — but is ready to experience peace.
