She began questioning the beliefs that had kept her quiet and compliant, delving into the depths of uncertainty. In this process, she discovered her knack for holding space for the undecided, a skill that naturally led her to coaching.This Week on Trauma Hiders ClubOn this episode you’ll hear Christina share her journey of healing and self-discovery through coaching and reconnecting with her body. She discusses the challenges she faced in letting go of certain beliefs, particularly the concept of ‘hell’, stemming from her religious upbringing. Christina emphasizes the importance of creating a safe space for exploring faith and self-care. The conversation also touches on the damaging effects of religious dogma within communities and the struggle to navigate personal paths separate from societal expectations. Christina offers practical tips for practicing self-connection, such as meditation, ritual, and physical movement. Christina highlights the importance of patience and autonomy in relationships. She also endorses laughter and fun!"Your children are seen as arrows in your quiver to shoot out forward for the lord.

Firewalking to Trama Hiders Club

I just had the honor and privilege to be interviewed on the “Trauma Hiders Club” podcast by Master host: Karen Goldfinger.

Karen is at the top of her game in the podcasting space, highly skilled at her craft.

When she hits the record button, you can tell immediately that she is all in. It’s clear from the very beginning that details matter to her, everything from the pre-conversation before the recording to every empowering question that she ask her guest, bringing incredible answers and providing awesome value to her audience.

If you get a chance to be a guest on her show, do not hesitate, seize the opportunity.

It goes without saying that if she invited me back on her podcast, I do it in a heartbeat.

Karen the Courageous!

Karen’s podcast is so amazing. I love the stories that she’s able to share on the podcast and how so many people have been encouraged to overcome their past by hearing these stories of trauma recovery. We all have some trauma hiding within us. Overcoming it all is no easy task, but Karen is paving a way to possibilities.
