Welcome to the Unscripted Healing Podcast where we share unscripted stories about health and healing because everyone has a story and everyone has an Inner Child who wants to be heard.
There is so much healing that can happen through real-life storytelling and this podcast creates a safe space for people to share their stories and connect the dots back to their childhood. It also creates an opportunity for YOU, the listener, to find yourself (and your Inner Child) within the stories.
So before pressing play, I encourage you to tune into your body because, as you are listening, it may give you clues to your story in the form of “goosebumps,” a pit in your stomach, a lump in your throat, tears in your eyes, or shivers down your spine! Those are all ways that your Inner Child and body are trying to get your attention that there was something in that story for you!
And thank you - just for being here - your Inner Child is already starting to feel seen, heard, and loved by you.

Episode #85: The Ripple Effect: How Healing Ourselves Helps Heal Our Families
Healing isn’t just something we do for ourselves, it’s something that moves through past and future generations. In this conversation, Tami and Dr. Alvin Thomas - Clinical Psychologist, Professor, and Researcher - dive deep into how self-awareness and inner healing create ripples across generations, and how the bravery to face our wounds can transform entire family dynamics.
Together, they remind us that the work we do to heal ourselves doesn’t just change us, it touches everyone connected to us and becomes one of the greatest gifts we can offer those we love most.
