In this episode Beth shares Vera Hart's essay on healing (What Real Healing Looks Like: Rewiring the Body After Psychological Abuse), exploring how trauma rewires the body and the steps toward real recovery: naming harm, rebuilding safety, recognizing trauma bonds, and resisting societal shame.
Through personal reflection and simple practices—setting boundaries, creating calm spaces, and allowing grief—listeners are invited to shift from survival to peace and to claim permission to heal.
