What does freedom feel like after escaping an abusive relationship? Join us on 'Dismissed True Stories' as I recount my personal journey of survival and healing, five years after leaving an abusive relationship. This episode unveils the non-linear and often unpredictable path to reclaiming one's life, emphasizing the strength and resilience required. As we explore the transformative power of sharing these stories, I reflect on the dual challenges and empowerment that come with helping others narrate their experiences. Discover how community plays an indispensable role in healing and the joy of finding freedom again.
Healing from trauma is a complex journey, demanding patience and self-love. In this episode, I shed light on the crucial steps to manage anxiety and regulate the nervous system, from deep breathing techniques to solo dance parties and connecting with nature. Learn how setting boundaries and practicing self-compassion are essential for releasing years of trauma. Through personal anecdotes, I celebrate small victories and the importance of joyful activities. Everyone deserves to reclaim their happiness, and sharing these stories helps survivors feel seen and validated. Tune in to understand the messy yet beautiful process of healing and the endless possibilities that come with reclaiming one's life.
