Have you ever received feedback that shook you to your core?
In this deeply personal episode, I share one of the biggest emotional breakthroughs I’ve had in years — how I turned a painful moment of shame into powerful growth through somatic parts work.

It started with a piece of honest feedback that hit harder than I expected. What followed was a cascade of emotions — shame, disappointment, and sadness — that revealed old survival patterns I didn’t even realize were still running the show. Through compassionate self-inquiry, somatic awareness, and support from my coach, I was able to meet the parts of me that were striving, perfecting, and overperforming… and finally give them what they’d been craving all along: love, rest, and acceptance.

In this episode, I’ll take you behind the scenes of that process — how I faced my inner critic, reparented my younger self, and reconnected with the playful, creative part of me that had been buried under years of achievement and pressure.

You’ll learn:

• How to recognize the parts of you driving overachievement and perfectionism
• Why intellectual awareness isn’t enough — and how to embody healing through somatic practice
• A simple visualization that helps you meet your younger self with compassion
• What it means to create from desire instead of pressure

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not enough” no matter how much you do, this episode will remind you that healing is possible — and that growth often begins with the courage to feel.
