When Pain Becomes Purpose: Turning Trauma into Healing with Sam Mishra


Listen Later

In this deeply moving episode of Dream Big with Amy, I’m joined by the extraordinary Sam Mishra multi-award-winning holistic therapist, educator, and global voice in trauma-informed healing.

Sam’s journey is one of profound resilience. From undiagnosed depression in her teens to surviving domestic abuse, CPTSD, chronic pain, and multiple nervous breakdowns, Sam has walked through the darkest valleys — and emerged with a mission to help others heal.

Together, we explore:

  • How trauma lives in the body and how the body can become the gateway to healing
  • The truth about nervous system collapse, burnout, and “high-functioning” survival
  • Moving from self-harm and breakdown to self-trust and embodied strength
  • What it really means to “reset your life” after trauma
  • How pain can be transformed into purpose — without bypassing the hard parts
  • Why getting uncomfortable is often the doorway to true healing

This conversation is raw, compassionate, and deeply hopeful. It’s for the woman who’s been holding it together for too long. For the one who knows there must be more than just surviving. And for anyone who needs a reminder that your past does not disqualify you, it can become your greatest gift.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your pain could become something meaningful… this episode is for you.
