Sometimes Healing Begins Where You’ve Been Silent
There are the things we tend to keep quiet.
The skeletons in the closet.
The things we fear if people knew, we'd be rejected for. And, for women, rejection can feel like death.
This week on the podcast, I had on guest Amity Rose, Betrayal Recovery Coach, and she shared her most shameful stories, and how she alchemized them into healing for not only herself, but others.
I also laid bare some of my most painful truths. And not only did I commit to telling my truth, but I committed to writing the book that I've been "meaning to" write for over a decade.
Ecstatic Life, the book, will be completed by 2027. It will be the story of how I alchemized sexual assault and relational violence into knowing and loving myself fully and deeply. How I transformed this story of shattered innocence, pain and betrayal into an ecstatic life.
It's my belief that this pivot is me realigning to my mission here in this life.
I didn't experience rape and abuse or suffer with years of crippling anxiety, low self-worth, and dissociation from my body for nothing. Healing this trauma was the lesson I needed in order to bring my specific medicine to the world.
And the medicine I truly want to share with you is exactly what I've learned along this healing journey. The same tools I used to regulate my nervous system, heal my trauma and save my marriage.
They are simple but amazingly powerful self-care practices that have changed my life so much that I my old self wouldn't believe this much change was even possible if she met me today!
And because of that, I decided to create a course for my younger selves; all those iterations of me along the healing path, from the moment I realized I was pregnant with Ari and had to heal, to today. I want to be the mentor that I would have prayed for for 20 years - had I known how powerful mentorship could be before I hired my first coach in 2024! (This new program doesn't have a name yet... but I'll be releasing more info soon.)
