Ep. 7 | Healing Out Loud — The Power of Telling Your Story
Silence can feel safe, like a shield we carry to protect ourselves - but over time, silence becomes heavy. It convinces us that our pain should stay hidden, when in truth, giving words to what we’ve carried is where freedom begins. In this week’s episode of Healing Reignited, I’m unpacking what it means to heal out loud - to give your story a voice in ways that are honest, safe, and powerful. Healing out loud isn’t about telling the whole world; it’s about loosening the grip that silence has on you. When you choose to share your...

You might wonder if you’re moving forward at all, or if you’re stuck for good.In this episode, I’m unpacking:Why the messy middle is a normal and necessary part...
