You may have spent years staying quiet, second-guessing yourself, or wondering if your needs are too much. This conversation meets you right where you are.Turning fifty became a pivotal moment for Trish. Faced with societal expectations around aging, her mother’s early Alzheimer’s diagnosis, and personal loss, she chose a different path—one rooted in authenticity, creativity, and nervous system regulation.Together, Laurel and Trish explore storytelling as healing, intuition, and somatic experiences, and how small moments of awareness can lead to meaningful transformation. Trish shares her journey of reclaiming her voice and how it led to her short film When We Show Up, centered on resilience, community, and hope.For those who have done the work but still feel stuck, this conversation offers a different way of listening—through the body, intuition, and lived experience.Healing unfolds through self-awareness, embodiment, and reconnecting with your truth.What We Explore• Personal growth and starting over• Finding your voice after silence• Storytelling as healing and connection• Spiritual growth and intuition• Somatic awareness and embodiment• Nervous system regulation• Grief, identity shifts, and life transitions• Practicing hope and self-trustKey Quotes“Oh honey, I’m just getting started.”“There’s still hope.”“If you don’t do something scary today, nothing’s going to change.”Why This Episode MattersIf you’ve felt disconnected from your voice or unsure of your path, this conversation is for you.For those on a healing journey navigating trauma, burnout, or identity shifts, this episode offers connection, validation, and possibility.
