    Generational Healing and the Power of Self-Leadership with Robin Houser

    Somewhere in your lineage, women learned to survive by going quiet.  No therapy. No “how do you feel?” No language for needs. Just grit, compliance, and the unspoken rule: don’t rock the boat. In this episode of My Healing Is Your Healing, I sit down with Robin Hauser to talk about generational healing—what it really is, how it shows up as people-pleasing, over-responsibility, fear-based parenting, and silence, and why one woman choosing to heal becomes a ripple that moves backwards and forwards through a family line. Robin is a self-leadership coach, mentor therapist, and trauma-informed guide with 20+ years in the mental health field—and her wisdom is rooted in lived experience. We talk about what happens when you stop handing your power to outdated family scripts, how to set boundaries without drowning in guilt, and why your “flaws” (empathy, sensitivity, responsibility) might actually be your stolen superpowers. If you’ve ever felt like the cycle-breaker in your family… if you’ve ever been labeled “too much” for wanting emotional honesty… if you’re tired of carrying the weight of everyone’s comfort—this conversation is for you. In this episode, we cover:  • What generational healing looks like in real life (not just as a concept)  • Why older generations equated strength with silence—and how it still impacts you  • How fear-based family programming turns into people-pleasing and self-abandonment  • Reclaiming empathy, sensitivity, and responsibility as strengths (not burdens)  • The truth about belonging: you don’t need permission to take up space  • Why healing changes the future even when your family never says the words Connect with Robin here:  https://www.facebook.com/robin.l.houser https://www.robinlhousercoaching.com @robin_houser_coaching Support the show Ready to Walk This Path With More Support?

    Identity Breakthroughs: The Moments That Change You Forever

    Some moments don’t just change your life — they change you. They shift what you tolerate, what you crave, what you’re available for, and what you can no longer pretend not to see. In this episode, we’re talking about identity breakthroughs — the flashpoints that quietly but permanently alter who you are. The moments when something clicks in your body or your awareness and you realize: I can’t go back to who I was before this. We explore the catalysts that shape identity — heartbreak, endings, loss, illness, relocation, self-dates, and the quiet realizations that arrive when you finally stop abandoning yourself. We talk about why life can feel emptier after a breakthrough, what the “void” actually means, and why the in-between season feels so disorienting even when you’re deeply aligned. This episode is for the woman who feels different lately. Quieter. Clearer. Less willing to negotiate her truth — but unsure of what comes next. If your identity has shifted before your life has caught up, you’re not failing. You’re integrating. Inside this episode: • What identity breakthroughs actually look like • Why clarity often comes through loss, endings, or discomfort • The liminal space between who you were and who you’re becoming • Why old patterns don’t mean regression — they mean integration • How to name the woman you’re becoming without turning her into a fantasy You’re not lost. You’re recalibrating. 🎧 Identity Breakthroughs: When You See It, You Can’t Unsee It — part of Identity Month inside My Healing Is Your Healing. Listen now on Spotify & YouTube.

    Your Brain is Always Listening: How to Rewire Self-Worth with Lisa Manzo

    What if the words you use every day are quietly programming your nervous system, your confidence, and your future? In this episode of My Healing Is Your Healing, I sit down with Lisa Manzo, NLP practitioner, nurse, and subconscious reprogramming guide, to explore how language shapes identity—and how small shifts in the words we use can dismantle survival patterns we didn’t even know we were running. We talk about:  • Why your unconscious mind runs the show (and doesn’t hear the word “not”)  • How familiar survival stories become mistaken for truth  • The difference between a “comfort zone” and a familiar zone • How self-talk wires (and rewires) neural pathways • Why awareness—not perfection—is the beginning of change • How self-forgiveness quiets the inner critic and restores self-trust This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply human. It’s about noticing the stories you repeat, understanding why they formed, and learning how to gently rewrite them—without shame, force, or bypassing. If you’ve ever said “this is hard,” “I can’t,” “this is just how I am,” this episode will change how you hear your own voice. ✨ You don’t need to fix yourself. You need to listen differently.

    Unlearning the Woman You Were Told to Be: Good Girls, Masks, and Survival Selves

    Who you became wasn’t a mistake—it was survival. In this grounding episode of My Healing Is Your Healing, Celeste explores how identity is shaped long before we’re conscious of it—through family roles, gender expectations, praise, punishment, and the quiet rules we learned about love, safety, and belonging. This episode is not about fixing yourself.  It’s about understanding why you became who you became—and deciding what no longer belongs. We talk about: How early conditioning shapes identity and self-worthThe “good girl,” achiever, caretaker, and chameleon survival rolesWhy people-pleasing and overperforming feel like safetyMistaking survival strategies for personalityWhat it means to unlearn without blaming yourselfHow reclamation is courage—not rebellionIf you’ve ever wondered why you keep shrinking, adapting, or performing to be accepted—this episode will help you separate survival from self and begin coming home to who you actually are. ✨ You’re not becoming selfish.

    My Body Is for Me: Healing Beyond Chronic Illness with Courtney Somma

    In this episode of My Healing Is Your Healing, I’m joined by Courtney Somma, a holistic health practitioner who lived for years with chronic migraines, IBS, inflammation, and daily pain while raising young children and holding a full life together from the outside. Like so many women, she was told her symptoms were normal, manageable, or something she’d simply have to accept. And for a long time, she did—until survival stopped feeling like living. We talk about what it’s really like to live in a body you can’t trust, how chronic illness slowly erodes confidence and identity, and the quiet grief that comes from canceling plans, numbing pain, and wondering if this is just how life will always be. Courtney shares the moment she realized traditional medicine alone wasn’t enough—and how healing finally began when she stopped treating her body like the problem and started listening to it as an ally. This conversation explores:  • How chronic pain and inflammation impact self-trust and identity  • Why “just pushing through” keeps women stuck in survival mode  • The difference between coping and true healing  • How nutrition, nervous system regulation, and mindset work together  • Why language matters when it comes to diagnosis and identity  • What it means to believe your body is for you, not against you If you’ve ever been told your symptoms are normal, minimized your pain because “others have it worse,” or felt disconnected from your body, this episode is for you. Healing doesn’t mean perfection. It means support, curiosity, and learning how to work with your body instead of fighting it. Courtney is currently offering free access to her Rewire Your Mind, Reclaim Your Health challenge for listeners of this podcast—a two-week experience grounded in science, nervous system healing, and practical mindset tools.

    Burnout Is Not Normal: Rebuilding Self-Worth and Confidence After Collapse with Deidre Gestrin

    Burnout doesn’t happen because you’re weak.  It happens because you’ve been strong for too long without support, boundaries, or permission to pause. In this episode of My Healing Is Your Healing, I sit down with burnout and wellness specialist Deidre Gestrin, who shares her lived experience of burning out not once—but three times. We talk about what burnout actually looks like in real life (not the Instagram version), why so many women don’t recognize it until they hit a wall, and how our culture continues to normalize chronic exhaustion as success. This is an honest, grounded conversation about: The difference between stress, chronic stress, burnout, and secondary traumatic stressWhy pushing through is often a survival strategy—not resilienceHow identity, self-worth, and work become dangerously intertwinedWhat finally forces change when your body says “enough”How healing actually begins (hint: it’s smaller, slower, and gentler than you think)Redefining success without sacrificing your health, nervous system, or lifeWe also talk about rebuilding after burnout—how to listen to your body again, restore self-trust, create sustainable boundaries, and shift from hustle to wholeness without abandoning ambition or purpose. If you’ve ever felt exhausted but unable to stop…  If rest feels unsafe or undeserved…  If your worth feels tied to productivity…  This episode is for you. 🎧 Listen now on Spotify & YouTube 🤍 Connect with Deidre & explore her work:  Website: https://www.abundantwellnessessentials.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@deidregestrin TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dgestrin Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dgestrin/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deidregestrin/ ✨ Healing doesn’t require collapse.  ✨ Rest is not weakness.  ✨ You are allowed to stop.

    The Identity You Outgrew & The Woman You’re Becoming Next

    Identity Month | The Year of Becoming What if the discomfort you feel right now isn’t failure…  but growth? In this opening episode of The Year of Becoming, we explore what happens when an identity you’ve lived inside for years quietly stops fitting—and the woman you’re becoming hasn’t fully arrived yet. This episode is not about resolutions, glow-ups, or “New Year, New You” energy.  It’s about identity death, grief, and the sacred in-between space that precedes real transformation. Inside this episode, we talk about: Why outgrowing an identity can feel disorienting, lonely, and confusingHow identity change often begins with an ending—not motivationWhy grief shows up when you shed an old version of yourselfThe difference between persona, truth, and becomingHow values—not fear or familiarity—anchor real identity workWhat it means to stop trying to be loved as a version of yourself that isn’t realCeleste also shares her lived experience from the last two years—including walking away from the altar, dismantling relationship-based identity, and relearning who she is without approval, performance, or being chosen. If you’ve been feeling “off,” unmotivated, or like your old life doesn’t fit anymore—this episode will help you understand why. You’re not broken. You’re becoming. This episode also marks the opening of a new season inside the Radiant Women’s Collective—a free, online women’s circle focused on identity, self-worth, self-trust, and becoming who you were always meant to be.
