In this inspiring episode, host Andrea Atherton welcomes author and sacred storyteller Kathleen Anne Tamborino to explore the transformative journey behind The Sacred Thread Trilogy that will be released at the end of June. Through three luminous volumes — The Unraveling, The Reweaving, and The Rising — Kathleen offers a poetic, spiritually anchored map for those navigating the pain of betrayal, abandonment, and deep emotional wounds. Together, Andrea and Kathleen explore what it means to not only survive trauma but to embrace it as sacred fuel for healing, personal reclamation, and inner peace.
Kathleen and Andrea unbox past trauma, once a source of shame and silence, that became the very ground from which wholeness can grow. Honoring the wound, releasing resentment, and embracing forgiveness without expecting reconciliation invites us to transmute pain into power. Listeners will hear how boundaries become acts of self-love, how reclaiming the inner child becomes a revolution of the soul, and how simple, grounding rituals like baking became her medicine. In the kitchen, Kathleen found not only a path to healing but a way to nourish others, weave love into every loaf, and rediscover joy through shared experience.
This episode is a beautiful reminder that healing doesn’t have to be clinical or cold — it can be warm, alive, and even delicious. Whether you are deep in your unraveling or feeling the stirrings of your rise, this conversation will remind you that your healing is sacred, your story is worthy, and your presence is a gift. Through tears, truth, and a little flour on our hands, we remember that we were never too broken to be whole — and that sometimes, the sweetest healing begins when we gather, share, and break bread together.
