When I first connected with my therapist, Lisa, I had no idea just how transformative her unique approach to trauma would prove to be for me. This episode marks the beginning of a series where Lisa and I have conversations about trauma, shame, and healing!Lisa and I discuss the disconnection from self and the survival instincts that often come from trauma. We reflect on our own paths through pain and the empowering role therapy has played in rediscovering our worth, a conversation that promises to resonate deeply with anyone who's ever felt lost in their own story.In this episode, we discuss: How trauma can be an insidious force, severing the connection with who we truly are as a coping mechanism. Lisa and I grapple with the idea of self-separation, a concept all too familiar to those who've experienced childhood trauma. Why we self abandon and how to start healingHow we can return to ourselves as the source of our own healing. Together, we explore the journey back to the inner child, the gradual restoration of trust and self-love, and the realization that our world can once again be a place of safety and exploration. Our candid discussion serves as an invitation to listeners to embark on their own healing process, one gentle step at a time.If you would like to work with Lisa as a therapist or coach, you can contact her by email at greenlisa5164@me.comWe hope this episode serves you on your journey of returning to yourself!You are worthy of your own love,JerryMy New Book:Returning: Meditations and Reflections on Self-Love and HealingTransformational Coaching:Learn More Here!Support the Show:My Patreon PageHow is your relationship with yourself going?Get your free-self assessment guideWatch On YoutubeWebsite:www.jerryhenderson.orgSupport the Show:My Patreon PageTrouble Sleeping?Sleep ResetGet Your Free Weekly Healing Tips!Free Guided Self-Love Meditation:Get it Here!Website:www.jerryhenderson.orgInstagram: ...
