How to Heal When You’re at Rock Bottom: Malisa Hepner on Trauma, Burnout & Rebuilding Your Life

Hard Beautiful Journey - A Podcast For Healing, Personal Growth and Emotional Resilience

Have you ever whispered to yourself, “I don’t know how much longer I can keep going?” In this raw and powerful episode of Hard Beautiful Journey, Tiff Carson sits down with therapist and podcast host Malisa Hepner, whose story reads like a trauma survivor’s handbook—childhood abuse, parental loss, CPTSD, and burnout so intense it nearly took her life. But what followed is a breathtaking example of choosing healing over perfection, embracing imperfection as power, and learning to love the fire within.

This conversation is for anyone who feels broken, exhausted, or like they’ve lost themselves in the chaos of motherhood, trauma, and people-pleasing. We talk about nervous system regulation, parenting through grief, emotional hygiene, and what it really takes to rebuild a life you actually love.

✨ We also explore Malisa’s incredible upcoming Empowerment Exchange Summit and how it aligns with finding your own timbre—the sound signature of your soul.

Let this be your permission slip to stop holding it all together.
