What if the tears, anxiety, and overwhelm you’re experiencing aren’t “just in your head,” but actually rooted in unresolved trauma your brain hasn’t processed?
In this episode, I share the deeply personal journey of discovering I was battling PTSD after years of medical trauma. When “powering through” no longer worked, I tried something I didn’t even know existed: EMDR therapy. From crying at stoplights to finding peace in hospital hallways, I walk you through how Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing changed my life—and could help change yours.
Whether you’ve faced chronic illness, emotional pain, or just feel stuck in fight-or-flight mode, this episode offers real talk, hope, and healing. 💖
💭 Something to Think About:
"Healing doesn’t just happen in your body—it happens when your brain is finally allowed to process what your heart has endured."
