This episode dives into the transformative power of trauma with Estefana Johnson, a licensed clinical social worker and trauma therapist. Through her own experience growing up in a restrictive, hyper-religious environment, Estefana shares how she became an outlier and how that shaped her approach to healing. We explore how trauma responses like people-pleasing or anger are actually survival mechanisms, and why questioning the norm is a powerful step toward self-authenticity.

Estefana unpacks the importance of environment in healing, how to recognize work-related trauma, and what it truly means to reclaim your agency. With humor, empathy, and deep insight, she introduces the therapeutic concept of Critical Memory Integration and invites us to step into discomfort as a path to purpose. Whether you're feeling stuck, surviving instead of thriving, or simply seeking your "why," this episode will speak directly to you. #traumahealing #authenticity #mentalhealthawareness #selfdiscovery #unshellingmedicine
