Childhood Trauma: Processing Deep Scars (ft. Machan Taylor)

from The Vibe With Ky Podcast Hosted by The Vibe With Ky

In this episode of The Vibe With Ky Podcast, we are talking about childhood trauma and how to heal those deep emotional scars. If you have ever felt like you do not belong, this conversation is exactly what you need. A massive thank you to our sponsor, Sucreabeille! We teamed up to create "Why Did I Walk Into This Room?", a gender-neutral fragrance that smells like cinnamon and cherry pie. It is a true love letter to the ADHD community. You can check it out here: https://sucreabeille.com/products/why-did-i-walk-into-this-room Today, I am joined by the incredible Machan Taylor, who has shared stages with icons like Pink Floyd and George Benson. We discuss her powerful memoir, Naked Out Loud, and her journey of processing the trauma of relocating to the United States as a young girl. We also talk about the heavy physical toll of masking your true identity to fit in. We focus heavily on how to use biology to regulate your nervous system and find genuine calm during moments of high anxiety. Key Takeaways: How the shock of childhood displacement creates lasting emotional trauma Why suppressing your authentic self drains your physical energy and biology Using diaphragmatic breathing and clinical therapy to process deep wounds Connect with Machan Taylor: Website: https://www.machantaylor.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/machantaylorofficial/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/machantaylor/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MachanTaylorOfficial Support The Vibe With Ky: Website: https://thevibewithky.com/ Mental Health Resources Hub: https://thevibewithky.com/mental-health-resources-hub/ Instagram: https://instagram.com/thevibewithky Patreon Subscriber Hub: https://www.patreon.com/thevibewithky Facebook Subscriber Hub: https://www.facebook.com/thevibewithky/subscribe/ Disclaimer: The Vibe With Ky Podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.
