You Are Not Your Past Embracing Healing in Motherhood

Have you ever felt like you were irreparably damaged, especially when it comes to motherhood? That nagging voice telling you you're not good enough, that you're somehow "broken" beyond repair? I've been there, and I want you to know something crucial: You are not broken. You are healing.

In this raw and heartfelt episode, I'm opening up about my own journey from believing I was irreparably damaged to embracing the transformative power of healing. As we celebrate the paperback release of "Breaking Free: Parenting in the Midst of Trauma Recovery," I'm sharing why these five words changed everything for me - and how they can do the same for you.

The Lie We Tell Ourselves

For years, I lived with that relentless inner critic:

  • You're too much.
  • You're damaged goods.
  • You'll never get this right.
  • You're screwing up your kids.

Sound familiar? This shame kept me quiet, stuck, and afraid to reach out for the support I desperately needed. But here's the truth I've discovered on my healing journey: that voice is a lie.

Rewriting Your Story

Through vulnerability and hard-won wisdom, you'll gain insight into:

  • Why your body's responses are actually trying to protect you
  • The moment I first believed I wasn't broken (hint: it involved a crying baby and a big shift in perspective)
  • How choosing connection over chaos can transform your parenting
  • Why healing isn't about perfection, but permission to become

A Hand to Hold on Your Healing Journey

"Breaking Free" isn't just a book - it's a companion for your healing journey. Inside, we explore:

  • What trauma really means and how it shows up in motherhood
  • Understanding triggers and working with them effectively
  • How to regulate without guilt
  • Parenting from peace instead of pain

Are you ready to stop believing you're broken and start embracing your healing journey? This episode is your invitation to come home to yourself, to rewrite your story, and to parent with the peace and presence you deserve.

Remember, every time you pause instead of react, every time you choose compassion over shame, you're not just healing yourself - you're rewiring your entire legacy. You've got this, mama. And I'm here cheering you on every step of the way.
