You Are Not Your Trauma: How to Break Patterns & Reclaim Your Worth w/ Sumaya Cifor

from Shift Happens: From Pain to Purpose · host Alexis Andra

Season two is starting with a story that’s not polished, pretty, or wrapped in a bow. It’s raw and real and it’s exactly what many of us need to hear. Today I’m sitting down with Sumaya Cifor. She’s a single mom to her daughter Skylar, a real estate agent in so cal, my own bestie and a woman who has carried parts of her story in silence for years… until now. This conversation is about a little girl whose innocence was stolen… and the woman who spent years trying to make sense of it. It’s about confusing attention for love, sexuality for worth, navigating betrayal inside a marriage, divorce, and what it feels like to trust God when everything is stripped away — and deciding you won’t let trauma be your personality. Because shift happens… but cycles don’t break themselves. This is Sumaya's story.  FOLLOW @alexisnandra @shifthappensthepod @sumayacifor RESOURCES FREE STORY METHOD GUIDE- to help you process, own and share your story  RESOURCES FREE STORY METHOD GUIDE- to help you process, own and share your story  FOLLOW@alexisnandra @shifthappensthepod
