What if the aches in your body aren’t entirely yours? The shoulder pain, the gut tension, or the sense of incompletion might not just be physical. It could be the echo of a secret held for decades, maybe even generations?

Because here’s the thing: families hold secrets, but those secrets have a way of leaking out or leaving breadcrumbs. And if you’re connected to your intuition, you can sense that there’s something that’s not being said.

Most of us were taught to look forward, to toughen up, to leave the past behind. But what if that very suppression is why we can’t move forward? What if freedom lives not in forgetting, but in remembering?

In this episode, we’re joined by spiritual strategist, energy healer, and psychic medium, Christina Trifero.

We unpack the heavy cost of secrecy and the methods we can use to bring the unknown and unspoken out into the open. We also discuss how to be a healer without hero-ing yourself or compromising your own essence.

We all have secrets, painful experiences, and even childhood challenges that affect us to this day. What if keeping them is what’s keeping us unwell?

Our culture teaches us to bottle in our truth, mask our emotions, and manage our image. But the body keeps score, and over time, that suppression turns into stress, disconnection, and even illness.

What if healing is about processing these things through our bodies?

That’s the lens Katie brings, not just as a psychologist or embodiment teacher, but as someone who’s lived it. Katie grew up in an environment where expression wasn’t welcome. Where looking the part was rewarded, but speaking your truth came with consequences.

And yet, through a deep commitment to curiosity and movement, she found her way to something radically different.

By tuning into her body's signals and honoring the impulses society taught her to ignore, Katie uncovered a deeper intelligence. One that didn’t just help her heal, it helped her become. It also helped her pioneer a whole new way of understanding ourselves.

It’s what turned a shy, observant girl into a pioneer in body intelligence and relational honesty. It’s also what led her to her purpose: helping others reconnect to their truth, not just through talking, but through breath, sensation, and somatic expression.

In this episode, Katie shares how secrets manifest in the body and how unprocessed emotions distort our relationships. We also discuss how pivotal moments from childhood, when metabolized, can become the very path to our genius.

Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

-Secrets make you sick

What’s the hidden cost of withholding your truth, and how does transparency heal more than therapy ever could?

-The body as a bridge

Most people are so switched off from their bodies that it makes healing hard. How does tuning into physical sensation give you access to clarity, freedom, and your deeper self?

-From pain to power

Do people who thrive have harder childhoods? How do they learn to transmute their wounds into wisdom?

-Sound encased in skin

Music isn’t just something we experience; it’s a part of us. How do we find our own internal rhythm?

Most people don’t think of themselves as creative. We say, “I’m not artistic,” or “I can’t perform,” and leave it at that. But the truth is, creativity isn’t reserved for the select few.

It lives in everyone.

It’s baked into how we think, feel, dream, and respond to the world.

The problem is that most of us were taught to shut it down. We were told to color inside the lines, follow the rules, and keep things appropriate.

Over time, we stopped expressing the weird, wonderful parts of ourselves and started believing that creativity belonged only to the professionals.

But performers like Jennifer Blaine know better.

Jennifer is a comedian, improviser, and creativity coach who doesn’t just entertain, she activates. Her shows invite people to stop watching and start engaging.

Through playful characters, spontaneous interaction, and real-time coaching, she helps people bypass their inner critic and access the creative voice that’s been waiting inside them all along.

Because when someone is bold enough to play in public, it sparks something in the room. It gives the rest of us permission to try, to improvise, to be ridiculous, expressive, and alive.

How do we use play and improv to pull out our true expression?

In this episode, Jennifer shares how performance becomes a portal, why creative energy is always running beneath the surface, and how just a little bit of play can bring people back to life.

Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

-Improvising with life
We’re all improvisers. So, how can you get better at dancing with the unknown instead of fearing it?

-From grief to genius
Can play be the most honest response to pain, transition, or loss, and how does it open doors to new expression?
