Calling Dibs

Childhood abuse and trauma are no joke. And, the tendrils that then extend from those formative years into your adulthood create false narratives and limiting beliefs about yourself, block your potential, can lead you to more abuse, and everything else that’s not meant to define you. Join Debbie Dibs as she opens the door for you to be a fly on the wall through her own therapy and journey towards discovering herself, healing, and going from surviving to thriving. Listen in to relate, to know that you’re not alone, and to hear lessons and ah-ha moments that may help you in your own journey. So, join me. Listen, relate, and heal, too. Call dibs and claim back your life!!DISCLAIMER: The Calling Dibs Podcast and all related content is not to be perceived as or relied upon in any way as medical advice or mental health advice or services.

    Were You Celebrated?

    I never understood birthdays growing up. I knew I always hated mine as a child, because I was unsure how much heartache the day would bring. But, when I became a mother myself, I finally connected the dots and got it: birthdays are about celebrating the life of that person and the joy you have for their presence in yours. So, when you grow up with a pattern of rejected opportunities to be celebrated, it dramatically affects your sense of self and self-worth. Listen in as I describe my own exp...

    Why “Calling Dibs”?

    This podcast wraps itself around a book that was a window into my own childhood and felt like a mirror to me: Dibs in Search of Self by Virginia M. Axline. It is a book I have read many times for various reasons over the course of my life–first, for school and then for my soul. Through the book, Axline brings us through the journey of a boy named Dibs who, through play therapy, moved from a state of anxiety, loneliness, and fear to a place of strength and security. And, I am continuing to tap...

    Nurture vs. Nurture (Yes, You Read That Right!)

    Have siblings? Rather than a matter of NATURE versus nurture, you and your brothers and sisters may have grown up in the same environment, but you can still have had vastly different outcomes. Why? Because your NURTURING was so different. Your primary caregiver’s treatment of you shapes you. Point blank, period. And, if your parent treated you differently than your brother or sister, then the evidence of that difference has likely shown up in just about every aspect of your life ever since. A...

    Beginning the Journey

    I just started therapy a couple of weeks ago. And, I’ve been encouraged to journal as I go. Well, if I’m going on a growth journey, I want everyone to benefit from what I’m learning. First of all, childhood abuse and the resulting trauma are VERY powerful. And, it’s rarely a good thing. I held in my secrets for nearly 40 years. And, my body felt those effects with migraines, insomnia, tense shoulders, an often clenched jaw and more. Emotions have to come out, or they will eat you alive. So, I...
