In this episode of the Full Heart Podcast, host Rebeka Davila speaks with Taylor, a trauma-trained somatic facilitator, about her journey from childhood trauma to becoming a healer.

Taylor shares her experiences with loss, coping mechanisms, and the importance of understanding the nervous system in healing. They discuss the difference between nervous system regulation and resolution, the significance of rest and recovery, and the impact of support systems in personal growth.
