Trauma can feel like a cage, but what if grief, intuition, and the body can help you find the door?

In this episode of Life After Trauma, I’m joined by Laura Hoorweg, a spiritual counselor, intuitive coach, and psychic medium, for a conversation about trauma, grief, intuition, embodiment, and what it means to move toward freedom after survival mode.

In this episode, you’ll walk away with:

• A deeper understanding of how trauma can disconnect us from trust and intuition

• A new perspective on grief as a healing process rather than something to fear

• Signs that you may be avoiding grief or pushing your emotions down

• Insight into the difference between intuition and a trauma response

• Gentle practices for reconnecting with yourself, including meditation, nature, journaling, yoga, dance, and sound baths

• A reminder that life after trauma can mean freedom, presence, and moving from black and white into full colour
