Episode Summary
When life levels you, rebuilding can feel impossible — especially when your brain is still in survival mode. In this raw and real episode, Dr. Julia Bowlin, MD, shares how trust—not control—is what actually rebuilds your mind, body, and spirit after the storm. She opens up about her year of “Surrender and Release,” caregiving exhaustion, and the surprising neuroscience of how trust rewires your brain for peace. If you’ve ever felt like you’re holding everything together by sheer willpower, this one’s for you.

You’ll Discover:
• Why rebuilding isn’t about control—it’s about learning to trust life again
• How micro-trust moments calm your nervous system and open flow
• The truth about why “fixing” can block your healing and clarity
• How to rewire your brain through the Bridge of Trust Visualization
• The mantra that shifts chaos into calm: Surrender and Release

Reflection Prompt
