In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with transformational coach Karen R. F. Mitchell to unpack what it really means to choose healing in a world that keeps asking women to shrink. This is not about cute quotes or bypassing trauma. It is about facing the moment you realize you no longer recognize yourself and deciding to come home to the woman you were before the hurt. Karen breaks down how women drift into survival mode through motherhood, relationships, and unhealed trauma. She explains why healing is an intentional choice, how forgiveness and sovereignty work together, and why peace and self trust are non negotiable in everyday life. If you are done people pleasing and ready to stop acting like a chicken when you know you are an eagle, this conversation will challenge you to reclaim your voice, your boundaries, and your throne.

 

About The Guest  :

 

Karen R. F. Mitchell is a transformational life coach and founder of The DOE Tribe. Daughters of Enlightenment, a movement for women who are ready to move from survival to sovereignty. Her work blends embodiment, positive psychology, identity reclamation, and generational healing. She also hosts The Empress Lioness podcast where she teaches women to stop shrinking, own their inner lioness, and sit confidently on their rightful throne in life and relationships.

 

Key Takeaways  :

  • Healing is not automatic. It is a conscious choice to stop carrying emotional baggage and finally look at what is hurting beneath the surface.

  • The first step out of survival mode is to pause, breathe, look yourself in the mirror, and honestly admit where you lost yourself in motherhood, relationships, or trauma.

  • Real healing and forgiveness go hand in hand. You cannot move forward without forgiving others and yourself, even if they never admit the harm.

  • Sovereignty in daily life looks like inner peace, strong boundaries, and refusing to let other people’s moods or opinions control your emotional state.

  • Meditation is a practical tool to quiet mental chaos, hear your own inner guidance, and reconnect with a higher source.

  • Every woman has an inner empress and lioness. Rebuilding self trust starts when you stop shrinking to fit in and decide to take your seat on your own throne.
