À propos de cet audio

 After literally falling through a trapdoor and breaking her back, Dr. Melissa Swonger had a choice: collapse into the dark or finally listen to her soul. In less than five months, she wrote her book, launched a nonprofit, and sparked a movement around radical kindness. Not long ago, Dr. Melissa Swonger took a single step onto what she thought was solid ground…and fell through a trapdoor. The storm-shelter door opened beneath her, shattering her back and pelvis and forcing her into a season of stillness she never asked for. Lying flat on her back, Melissa finally did the one thing she'd resisted for sixteen years: she wrote her story. In this episode of Unlearn the Crap & Level Up, host Kathy Baldwin sits down with Melissa to explore how that one decision ignited a wave of radical change. Together they unpack: Growing up with CPTSD and a "world is unsafe" brain What happens when trauma trains you for protection instead of connection Why forgiveness of an unrepentant parent became the turning point in Melissa's legacy Awareness → Connection → Movement as a practical framework for transformation The trapdoor accident on May 20, 2025—and the decision to finally write Whom He Raised How radical kindness "walks in when everyone else walks out" What it means to become an agent of change in your family, your work, and your community Melissa also shares how The Sage Hill Project is mobilizing radical kindness as a movement, not a moment. If you've ever felt like you're lying in your own trapdoor moment, wondering how to keep going, this conversation is your reminder that one step—just one—can change everything.
