    The Woman Beneath the Trauma

    Weekly Healing Notes Welcome to The Woman Beneath the Trauma, a weekly audio companion to Elise Skibik’s upcoming memoir and poetry work. Each week, Elise invites you into a gentle space for reflection, healing, spirituality, holistic practices, poetry, affirmations, and journaling—created especially for women who have experienced trauma and are ready to reconnect with themselves beyond their survival stories. These conversations are not about becoming someone new. They are about discovering who you have been beneath everything you have survived. Each episode may include: ✨ A personal reflection or story⚓ A simple Seastar Anchor to help you pause and reconnect with the present moment🌙 A holistic or spiritual practice📝 A journaling prompt for deeper self-reflection💗 An affirmation to carry with you📖 A Cliff Note for the Soul—an original piece of poetry These weekly notes are inspired by Elise's upcoming books, The Woman Beneath the Trauma and Cliff Notes for the Soul, and are part of a larger conversation about self-trust, self-love, boundaries, spirituality, self-abandonment, resilience, and returning to yourself. You don't have to have all the answers. You don't have to heal perfectly. You simply have to give yourself permission to pause, listen, and begin again. ⚓ Your Anchor for this week:Pause. Breathe. Notice. Return to yourself. If something in this episode speaks to you, share it with another woman who may need to hear it. And if you'd like to continue this journey beyond the weekly episodes, you're invited to explore Seastar Sisterhood, a community created to support women through healing, self-discovery, spirituality, and connection. Subscribe. Listen. Reflect. Journal. Return. Not big on audio signup for our blog You are more than what happened to you. You are the woman beneath it all. — Elise Skibik

    Spirituality after Trauma

    After trauma, many people are drawn to spirituality in search of meaning, peace, and connection. But what happens when spirituality becomes another way to disconnect from yourself? In this episode of Talks with Friends, Elise explores the difference between grounded spirituality and spiritual bypassing. She breaks down how trauma can impact discernment, why intuition can feel confusing, and how to reconnect with your spiritual practice in a way that supports your nervous system not overrides it. This conversation is an invitation to come back to yourself. To trust your body. And to build a spiritual path that feels safe, embodied, and real.

    When the body remembers what the mind forgets

    Welcome back to Talks with Friends. In the last episode we talked about self-sabotage and how many of the patterns we judge ourselves for are actually trauma responses. Today, I want to go deeper into something that many of us experience but don’t always understand. The body remembers what the mind avoids. Join our sisterhood

    Self-sabotage is not a character flaw

    Enjoy weekly episodes Here, we talk about trauma through the lens of spirituality, nervous system wisdom, leadership, and embodied truth. We explore what it means to stop surviving and start leading your life, your healing, your voice. I don’t believe in toxic positivity. I believe in alchemy. In turning pain into purpose, wounds into wisdom, and survival into sovereignty.

    Survival Wasn’t the End of Me

    Trauma doesn’t just hurt us it reorganizes us. In this foundational episode, Elise explores how survival patterns form, how the nervous system adapts, and how healing begins when we stop asking what’s wrong with us and start asking what happened to us. Join sisterhood memberships
