Rediscovering YOU

When Speaking Feels Unsafe: How Past Trauma Shapes Communication in Relationships

Episode Summary

In this deeply personal episode of Rediscovering YOU, we explore how unhealed trauma — especially the subtle, often overlooked "little t" trauma — can shape our ability to communicate in relationships. From childhood experiences of emotional invalidation to patterns of people-pleasing and self-silencing in adulthood, I share my own journey of losing and ultimately reclaiming my voice. You'll learn how trauma responses manifest in everyday communication, why your nervous system may shut down during conflict, and the real cost of staying silent. I also walk you through the most transformative tools I used to heal — including inner child work, therapy, energy healing, and nervous system regulation — and how these practices laid the foundation for the Rediscovering YOU: Healing and Awakening Beta program. If you've ever felt like your voice doesn’t matter, or that expressing yourself is unsafe, this episode is for you. It’s time to rewrite that story — and rediscover the power of your voice.
