Show Notes:In this deeply moving episode of Healing Doesn’t Have to Be Heavy, host Angie Berrett sits down with Shelly Edwards Jorgensen—survivor, speaker, author of Beautiful Ashes, and advocate for trauma recovery. Shelly shares the profound and nearly unimaginable trauma she endured throughout her childhood and teenage years, including domestic violence, sexual abuse, and the murder of her mother at the hands of her father.Despite living what looked like a “successful” life on the outside—excelling academically, building a strong career, and appearing confident—Shelly reveals how she silently battled depression, emotional numbness, and daily thoughts of wanting to die. She and Angie explore the silent suffering so many trauma survivors experience, and why outward success does not equal inner peace.Shelly opens up about the turning point in her healing journey — discovering NET (Neuro Emotional Technique) and other body-based therapies, after traditional talk therapy alone was not enough. She discusses the importance of finding the right combination of healing modalities, the power of movement and athletic grounding, and the role of faith and trust in rebuilding her inner safety and sense of self.To connect with our guest, click on the links below:Website:  http://beautifulashesmemoir.com/Connect with me:Website:  https://angieberrettmovement.com/Instagram:  https://Instagram.com/angieberrettmovement Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/angie.berrett/ YouTube:    https://www.youtube.com/@angieberrettmovement LinkedIn:    https://www.linkedin.com/in/angieberrettmovement/ TikTok:       https://www.tiktok.com/@angieberrettmovement?_t=8qP9poCboWA&_r=1🎁Grab your Free 5 Minute Freak Out Fix: https://angie-berrett-movement.mykajabi.com/5-MinuteFreakOutFix

Show Notes:Host Angie Berrett welcomes Christella Ilunga for an insightful discussion on the process of healing from trauma, with a focus on childhood experiences and the significance of healthy boundaries. Together, they examine the role of community support, effective coping strategies, and the journey of personal growth and self-awareness. The conversation underscores the importance of creating safe, supportive environments where individuals can share their experiences and find empowerment through healing.Bio:An Empowered woman who empowers women!Christella Ilunga is a 30 year old social activist and educator from Congo, Kinshasa. Although she prefers to be behind the scenes, she has learned that her true power lies in being in the forefront as a leader and a speaker. She believes that education, resources, and community based interventions are the solutions for many problems that our world faces today. With the heart for change and equality she earned her Bachelor's of Science in Human Development and Family Studies with a minor in Psychology from the University of Rhode Island. She went on to continue her education earning a Master's in Elementary Education at Grand Canyon University. Christella felt her efforts in the classroom were not as effective due to behavioral challenges that students faced in the classroom. Having over seven years of experience in the behavioral health field and education field combined she chose a different path than teaching. She believes that social emotional learning increases student success rates. “When a student is well they do well.” Setting students up for success by teaching them the keys necessary to overcome social emotional challenges is just as important for them as growing in their academics. In her lifetime she has come across so many intelligent individuals who were plagued with behavioral issues which limited their ability to succeed academically. Once their behavioral needs were met tremendous improvements were made academically. She believes in working smarter and not harder. She also believes in equity, the ideal that everyone should get what they need to help them succeed. This looks different for everyone but no one person is exactly the same. She celebrates diversity and appreciates the differences brought from different backgrounds and cultures in each space she finds herself.To connect with our guest, click on the links below:Instagram:  instagram.com/christellamilunga 🎁Peer support through my link with free pro credits https://sharewellnow.com?via=MissChristellaConnect with me:Website:  https://angieberrettmovement.com/Instagram:  https://Instagram.com/angieberrettmovement Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/angie.berrett/ YouTube:    https://www.youtube.com/@angieberrettmovement LinkedIn:    https://www.linkedin.com/in/angieberrettmovement/ TikTok:       https://www.tiktok.com/@angieberrettmovement?_t=8qP9poCboWA&_r=1🎁Grab your Free 5 Minute Freak Out Fix: https://angie-berrett-movement.mykajabi.com/5-MinuteFreakOutFix

She began studying hypnosis, biofeedback, Reiki, and the power of intuitive energy, eventually founding Self Empowered Minds in 2009—a wellness center dedicated to helping people heal and live life empowered.Today, Saba guides others through trauma, uncertainty, and transformation using a blend of science-backed methods and soulful intuition.
