Reclaiming Power and Purpose After Trauma with Emmy Marie The Conscious Leadership Podcast with Gabby Ortega, MA

In this episode, Emmy and I dive into conversations about trauma, healing, and authenticity. Emmy shares with us her story of survival from an abusive relationship and her path to healing from complex PTSD. We talk about creating a lifestyle of healing, and how embodying the healing journey with authenticity can be an impactful mirror to others suffering silently. We also talk about why it is important to de-monopolize the wellness space in order to bring about greater healing. This episode brings back the conversation to some of the struggles found in early-stage conscious entrepreneurship, and will be especially helpful for anyone working along their healing journey.
