In this heartfelt episode, Jaime explores one of the most painful and often overlooked parts of trauma: the lingering burden of shame and self-blame. Many survivors — whether from childhood abuse, domestic violence, or other traumatic events — carry the false belief that they were responsible for what happened to them. These thoughts often stem from manipulation by abusers, societal stigma, or the brain’s own attempt to make sense ...

Whether you’re dealing with PTSD, childhood trauma, or daily emotional overload, this episode will help you understand:

In this episode, Jaime returns to the mic to clear up some common myths and misconceptions around Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). From the idea that CBT is “just worksheets” to the belief it doesn’t help with trauma or long-term issues — we set the record straight.
✅ What CBT actually is (and isn’t)
🌪 Why it does include somatic (body-based) awareness
🕰 How CBT can be both short-term or long-form
📋 The difference be...
Trauma can cast a long shadow, but intensive therapy offers a way to step into the light and reclaim your life.

At the heart of EMDR is a remarkable technique that uses bilateral stimulation—li...

It means understanding, processing, and giving yourself the kindness you’d offer a friend.
This podcast is a space to slow down, take a breath, and gently untangle the...
This Episode is the second on the series. It explores the lasting impact of traumatic events on mental health and well-being.

On our journey to recovery and healing, when our resilience feels has disappeared, we tend to focus on what things have not gone right.
Today we focus on why that may be, and we will do a visualisation to find a compassionate and kind vow to ourselves, that will help you to work on what it matters and is valuable for you!
Hope you enjoy.

We all put aside things, don’t pay attention to small details and focus on the difficulty in front of us.
Sometimes, our believes may stop us from actioning some of the things we know, we feel, will help us get thru.
Today we revisit PLEASE and look at The A and The B, so to build resilience and nurture yourself, by accumulating positive emotions, to build self-confidence and mastery, and so you can be #YourBestSelf.
Welcome to the second part of this series about resilience, coping, and reflecting on our lives, skills and experiences to be able to be in the present, be more self-compassionate, self-kind and self-aware.
