    The Empath Wound: The Child Who Was Never Allowed to Be Selfish

    What if the part of you that you've always called "empathetic" was also shaped by survival? In the first episode of The Empath Wound, Deborah gets raw and personal about the connection between childhood abandonment, people-pleasing, overgiving, and the constant need to be seen as "good." She reflects on how being the understanding one, the fixer, the forgiving one, and the person who could always read the room became more than personality—it became protection. This episode explores the child who learned to put everyone else's needs first—and the adult who eventually realizes that keeping everyone else happy can come at the cost of abandoning herself. From relationships and family to friendships, work, and authority figures, Deborah challenges the belief that being a good person means tolerating disrespect, explaining every boundary, giving unlimited chances, or sacrificing your peace to maintain a connection. Because healing sometimes means learning a new kind of selfishness: choosing yourself without guilt. This episode will leave you with one powerful question: How many times have you abandoned yourself so somebody else wouldn't abandon you? Welcome to The Empath Wound—an 8-part journey of uncovering what you thought was "just who you are" and asking: Is this really who I am, or is this who I had to become to survive? ----------------------------------------------------------------- BetterHelp Therapy: If you're struggling, consider therapy with our sponsor.

    Beyond Compliance: What Accessibility Really Looks Like with Jenna Udenberg

    What if accessibility wasn't treated like a checklist—but simply became part of how we care for one another? In this episode of The Healing Version, Deborah sits down with disability advocate, author, educator, and community leader Jenna Udenberg for an eye-opening conversation about disability, accessibility, inclusion, and the everyday barriers many of us never notice. Jenna shares why meeting ADA requirements should be the starting point—not the finish line, and how something as simple as a blocked access aisle, an inaccessible bathroom, or a poorly designed entrance can send the message that someone wasn't considered. They also discuss disability language, asking questions instead of making assumptions, representation, advocacy, and the importance of listening directly to disabled people about their own experiences. As Jenna reminds us, every disability experience is different—and true inclusion begins when we become curious enough to listen. This conversation will challenge you to look at the spaces around you differently—because once you see the barriers others face every day, you can't unsee them. 🎙️ The Healing Version — where healing, awareness, accountability, and real conversations meet. ----------------------------------------------------------------- BetterHelp Therapy: If you're struggling, consider therapy with our sponsor.

    In this powerful episode of Versions of Healing, Deborah sits down with holistic skin specialist, licensed aesthetician, certified life coach, and founder of Radiance Coach, Zhanna Gavrilov, for a deep conversation about the emotional roots of skin issues and the connection between acne, stress, self-worth, and inner healing.
