The term “languishing” has come into the cultural lexicon recently as the world stagnates between healing from the grief from this pandemic year while looking forward towards more hopeful days. But this concept is nothing new for those of us healing from the complex chaos of childhood trauma. Amid this conversation with self-love and embodiment coach Beatrice Kamau, we are reminded that “It's worth it to live a life that feels good.”
So in this episode of the Conscious Leadership Podcast, we dig into trauma recovery and what it looks like on the other side of post-traumatic growth. In this discussion, we talk about dealing with the lingering grief from our childhood wounds, learning to integrate the shadow aspects of ourselves, and living as the trauma-versions of ourselves. Beatrice also shares her experience healing from childhood traumas and the ways she coaches women to step into their personal power to stop settling for just ok, and to create a life they desire.
After doing the healing work, one of the most magical realizations is that you get to create who you want to become. Once you’ve grieved, reconciled, and fostered a greater sense of self-awareness, you can then work on creating the life you truly want to live. So from this episode, you’ll take away the liberation that is possible on the other side of healing.
