This is the episode I started this show to record. Truly, it is why I'm on this planet - to help other people heal from trauma and see their experiences as opportunities to align with their greater purpose. Even if you think you've never gone through anything "that bad", I promise that there's something for you to learn from this episode as you show yourself the love you need to validate your experiences. 

In this episode, I talk about:

• Why discussing trauma is important
• Trauma isn't always what we think
• Showing compassion to each other and ourselves as we shift into a new paradigm 
• Healing ourselves so we can heal others
• Why the saying "Time heals all wounds" is bullshit 
• My experience with trauma and athletics, how I'm just healing it now
• Healing old patterns by going back to when they happened
• Setting boundaries respectfully 
• Inner child work and how simple but powerful it can be

We cover so much ground in this episode and I hope it brings you the healing you need. My goal is for this show to feel like you're talking to a friend on your couch. I hope it brings you the comfort and peace that I feel when sharing.
