    EP255: Finding Safety and Self-Trust with Chris Dyer

    FINDING SAFETY AFTER TRAUMA SUMMIT Chris will also be joining me as one of the speakers for the Finding Safety After Trauma Summit, happening October 22–23, 2026, from 10:00 AM–5:00 PM ET each day. I’m looking forward to having Chris be part of this special two-day event and sharing more conversations around safety, healing, and moving forward after trauma. Join us: https://hub.htdholisticservices.com/finding-safety-summit In this episode, I’m joined by Chris Dyer, Strategic Advisor and speaker, for a conversation about finding safety, trusting yourself, and learning to listen to what you need. Chris works with highly sensitive and empathic leaders who often carry a lot of responsibility. From the outside, they may seem like they have everything together, while on the inside they may feel stretched thin, unsupported, or unsure of what comes next. We talk about some of the patterns that can make it difficult to trust yourself, especially when you’ve spent a long time taking care of others or trying to meet expectations. Chris shares her perspective on slowing down, paying attention to what your mind and body are telling you, and making choices that feel right for you. We also talk about self-awareness, the nervous system, compassionate leadership, and what it can look like to move forward without losing yourself along the way. I hope this conversation reminds you that you don’t have to have everything figured out. Rebuilding trust in yourself can start with simply listening to yourself again.

    EP250: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with Lizbeth De Sa

    In this episode of the Heal Thrive Dream Podcast, I’m joined by Lizbeth De Sa for a conversation about healing trauma, understanding the different parts of ourselves, and what it can look like to feel whole again. Lizbeth is an Internal Family Systems practitioner, Certified Level 3, educator, writer, laughter yoga leader, and conflict mediator. She works with people who are healing from deep trauma, including experiences that often go back to childhood. During our conversation, Lizbeth shares more about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and the idea of the “multiple mind.” We talk about how the different parts of us can carry pain, fear, and old experiences, and how getting to know those parts can help us better understand ourselves and our healing. A little more about Lizbeth: Lizbeth is originally from England, is of Indian descent, and graduated from the University of Oxford. She has lived in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, California, and now South Carolina. She is also a mom of two teenagers. Outside of her work, she enjoys meditation, playing the piano, speaking French, and occasionally doing improv comedy. I hope you’ll join us for this meaningful conversation about trauma, IFS, and finding our way back to wholeness.
