I’ve talked with several people lately that are having a tough time. They've felt unusually emotional or found themselves grumpy and struggling to get through the day without knowing why. And I’ll admit, I’ve been struggling too, but I think I know why.

In this episode, I’ll share what I’ve been struggling with, what I’ve learned about how our bodies hold onto past traumas and how to heal, and what I’m doing to cope in this season. 

In this episode, I'll discuss:

  • [00:50] - A season of grief + sadness
  • [03:46] - The body remembers past traumas
  • [05:14]  - Healing past traumas
  • [09:06] - Learning how to feel my feelings
  • [11:10] - Using journaling + writing to process past traumas and current emotions
  • [11:41] - Therapy and coaching - helpful tools for healing
  • [12:36] - Suffering is an inherent part of living
  • [15:52] - Slowing down + taking gentle care of myself


I hope it helps you feel a little less alone and maybe gives you some ideas for your own healing journey.
