  • S1 24. I Healed for Myself and the Generations After Me

    Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of childabuse, toxic relationships, emotional abuse and suicidal ideations. Please listen with care and seek support if needed.

     

    In this deeply moving episode, Tywanah Evette shares her courageous journey of breaking free from generational trauma, surviving an abusive relationship, and learning to trust herself again. She opens up about the darkest moment of her life—when she attempted suicide—believing she had no way out. But that was the moment everything changed.


    After enduring a toxic relationship with a man her therapist later identified as a covert narcissist, Tywanah realized she had lost herself entirely. The emotional and psychological abuse she suffered left her questioning her worth, her choices, and her ability to trust her own instincts.

    But through RTT hypnotherapy, energetic healing, and deep self-reflection, she slowly began to rebuild.

     

    Tywanah discusses the loneliness that comes with healing,as many people from her past couldn't go with her on this new journey. But through it all, she learned that true happiness comes from within—not from external validation, relationships, or societal expectations.

     

    Now, she stands on the other side, stronger than ever. She has healed, reconnected with her children and grandchildren, and even welcomed the love of a rescue dog into her life. Most importantly, she has learned to fully trust and love herself—flaws and all.

     

    If you’ve ever struggled with self-trust, felt trapped in toxic cycles, or feared loneliness in your healing journey, this episode offers both raw truth and powerful inspiration for taking back your life.
