Women Waken: Spiritual Healing for Trauma in Relationships to Shift from Codependency to Divine Feminine

With how prevalent trauma is in the current human experience it's important to have many insights & understanding into the creation & addressing of trauma. I was very excited to welcome my guest on the show this week, Marc Hauser, PhD, who has gone to great lengths and dedicated countless hours to answer the question; what do you we do about the adverse effects of trauma on the lives of humans?

On this guest episode, Marc shares about his research on trauma and exploring the impact of adverse childhood experiences. Marc distinguishes between adverse childhood experiences, trauma, and resilience & explains why when considering a person’s trauma, we should care about the type of adversity experienced. He tells us about his model or framework that he the Adverse Ts & what’s so important about these Ts. Marc advocates for a toolkit of approaches to treat childhood trauma & discusses many of the personal stories that he has about people in his own life, both family members and students in school, that have shaped his life and work.

What is Women Waken: Spiritual Healing for Trauma in Relationships to Shift from Codependency to Divine Feminine?

My name is Whitney Walker, welcome to Women Waken! I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist specialising in substance abuse, addiction, eating disorders, trauma, and Spirituality. Over 10 years ago I walked into a therapist office for the first time because I realised that I felt incapable of handling life. I abused drugs and alcohol, had rock bottom self esteem, often felt suicidal, was very self destructive, and had no idea how to resolve what felt like a complete mess inside my mind and emotions.

After years of therapy, getting sober, and choosing to begin the journey of unconditional self love for myself, things started to change. My self esteem rose along with my self regard and kindness towards myself. I knew there was only one thing I wanted to do with the rest of my life; help others out of the place that I was in and start figuring out how we can end these cycles for good, for all of us.

Women Waken is building community and offering a platform for Women to come together who share a vision of creating a new way of life where insecurity, low self esteem, and self- destruction are no longer the norm. Where we are able to rebalance the dynamic between the inner and outer Worlds so that our ability to love and accept ourselves is no longer dependent on externals.

On this show, we speak to Women who are seeking to heal from traumas/habits/addictions that are keeping them in a place of disempowerment who are ready to begin aligning with their true self and are ready to let their light shine

I release two episodes a week, an interview and solo episode,

If you feel ready to reclaim your power and stand in your Divine light I hope this show finds you!
