My Pilgrimage of PTSD
Hi friends! In this episode, I’m opening up about my deeply personal journey of facing PTSD during a solo 700-mile road trip to Denver. Without my usual support systems—no service dog, no THC—I relied on raw courage to attend life-changing medical appointments. I’ll share how kinesiology and neuro-emotional techniques helped me unlock and release years of stored trauma, especially around childhood abandonment. This is a story about breaking through fears, finding inner strength, and emerging lighter on the other side. If you’ve ever wondered if transformation is possible, this episode is for you.
