    This week, millions of people in the US will celebrate freedom with fireworks, family gatherings, and flags waving in the summer sky. But what if you're safe... and still don't feel free? What if survival didn't end when the trauma ended? In this heartfelt Fourth of July episode, Dr. Lisha Antiqua explores the invisible prison of survival mode and why so many people continue living with chronic stress, hypervigilance, financial pressure, people-pleasing, and nervous system exhaustion long after the original danger has passed. Survival was designed to save your life. It was never designed to give you freedom. Drawing from her own life, decades of working with trauma survivors, and research on nervous system regulation, neuroplasticity, chronic stress, and CPTSD, Dr. Lisha shares why so many of us ask, "What's the point?" and how that question is often the voice of survival, not the truth about your future. If you've ever felt like you're constantly trying, working, healing, and doing "all the right things," yet still feel stuck, this episode will help you understand why. Because true freedom isn't just something we celebrate once a year. It's something we learn to embody. In this episode, you'll discover: • The difference between surviving trauma and living in survival mode• Why your nervous system mistakes familiarity for safety• How survival quietly steals your sense of choice• Why money, resources, and healthy relationships expand freedom• The surprising question that can help you move from merely surviving to fully participating in your life This Independence Day, don't just celebrate freedom.

    CPTSD Doesn't Have to Define Your Success

    This week's conversation is one of the most honest we've had on More Than Sex and Secrets. Dr. Lisha Antiqua sits down with entrepreneur, podcast host, and business mentor Tiffany Carter of ProjectME with Tiffany to talk openly about something many successful women quietly carry—Complex PTSD (CPTSD), childhood trauma, perfectionism, and the fear of never feeling enough. While social media often celebrates success, it rarely shows the invisible healing journey behind it. Tiffany shares her personal experience as a survivor of abuse, how CPTSD has impacted her business, relationships, confidence, and nervous system, and the practical tools she uses to lead a multimillion-dollar company while continuing her healing journey. Together, we explore the connection between self-worth, perfectionism, trauma recovery, entrepreneurship, success mindset, emotional regulation, and building a business without abandoning yourself. If you've ever wondered... • Can I be successful with CPTSD?• Will my trauma always hold me back?• Why do perfectionism and self-doubt keep sabotaging my dreams?• Can I build a thriving business while still healing? ...this episode is for you. This conversation is filled with hope, honesty, laughter, and the reminder that healing and success don't have to compete—they can grow together. ✨ Learn more from Tiffany Carter:Connect with Tiffany - ⁠Her website ⁠ Her podcast! ⁠https://www.projectmewithtiffany.com/podcast/⁠ 💜 Ready to discover what's keeping you stuck and reclaim your confidence?

    We are healing the wrong way.

    In this soul-provoking episode of More Than Sex and Secrets, Dr. Lisha Antiqua explores what it truly means to reclaim the throne of your own life. Drawing inspiration from the ancient Gospel of Thomas, soul psychology, and decades of working with survivors, Lisha challenges the beliefs that keep people and herself trapped in fear, victimhood, scarcity, and powerlessness. What happens when you stop giving your authority to the news, the economy, your diagnosis, your trauma, or the opinions of others? What happens when you stop waiting for someone else to save you and remember the power that has been within you all along? This conversation dives into:✨ Healing from the soul level✨ The difference between awareness and victim consciousness✨ Escaping fear-based programming and learned helplessness✨ Why true healing requires more than treating symptoms✨ The message of the Gospel of Thomas and the Kingdom within If you've been feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world, struggling with scarcity, fear, uncertainty, or old trauma patterns, this episode is an invitation to remember who you are beyond the circumstances. Dr. Lisha is reminding herself too! Because healing isn't about getting over what happened or what is happening. It's about remembering who you were before the world convinced you otherwise. A divine SOUL incarnate. 💫 Ready to reclaim your confidence, purpose, and power?

    Why ADULT - Childhood Sexual Abuse survivors are the forgotten and misdiagnosed.

    In this deeply personal and powerful episode of More Than Sex and Secrets, Dr. Lisha Antiqua speaks directly to adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and adult sexual trauma about why she refuses to stay silent about the lifelong impact abuse has on the body, mind, identity, relationships, nervous system, and soul. After years of working with survivors and being a survivor herself, Lisha shares the heartbreaking reality that many doctors, therapists, and healing professionals are still only treating symptoms: anxiety, depression, chronic illness, relationship struggles, dissociation, people-pleasing, burnout, and addiction… while missing the deeper wound underneath. The result? Survivors spend years coping, fixing, medicating, masking, and “healing”… without ever truly feeling free. In this raw conversation, Lisha also opens up about trying to move away from focusing on survivors, only to realize again and again that helping heal this wound is part of her soul’s purpose, and why this conversation matters more than ever. ✨ This episode is a wake-up call for survivors who are exhausted from surviving and ready to reclaim themselves. If survivors would simply stop… breathe… and truly listen… healing could begin in a completely different way. 💫 Ready to take your next step?Explore the SSS transformational bundle, YOU Matter Club, courses, and healing resources here:👉 http://www.linktr.ee/drlishaantiqua
