Listener Note: This episode includes the sharing of a personal survivor's story, which explores themes such as silent trauma, grief, sexual abuse, verbal abuse, physical sexual abuse, the process of healing and returning to oneself, and physical manifestations of trauma (including issues with the root chakra, sacral chakra, and solar plexus, and medical issues like endometriosis and adomiiosis). The content may feel activating. Please listen with care. You are always welcome to pause, step away, or return when it feels supportive for you. A guest joins the healing circle to share her story of carrying silent trauma for decades. This heaviness froze her in a grief that shaped her life. The conversation explores her journey of healing and returning to herself, a story that will resonate with anyone who has felt stuck between who they are and who they are becoming. Her trauma began at age 14, involving physical and verbal sexual abuse, which the manipulative abuser encouraged her to internalize as blame. She didn't voice what happened until January 2021, which was tied to a closed voice chakra. The guest recounts how the quietness of COVID allowed her to see what was beneath the surface. The trauma manifested physically, causing issues in her body (including endometriosis, adenomyosis, and pelvic problems) and blocking her root, sacral, solar plexus, heart, and throat chakras. The healing journey, including reporting the case to the Guards, is discussed as a crucial step in speaking her truth.
