    From Self-Doubt to Self-Worth w/ Betsy Holmberg
    2025/05/21
    In this episode of Trauma Undone, Dr. Betsy Holmberg takes us on a powerful journey through her own experience with depression and self-doubt—and reveals how neuroscience became her path to healing. She breaks down the science behind the default mode network (DMN), the brain's role in negative self-talk, and offers transformative strategies for rewiring our mental habits. From understanding thought patterns to practical tools like meditation, shaking, and binaural beats, Betsy empowers us to separate from the inner critic and move toward self-compassion and clarity—while also shedding light on why it's so important to teach the next generation how their brains work. 🧠 The default mode network (DMN) drives negative self-talk—but we can shift out of it. 🌀 You are not your thoughts—just because they appear doesn’t mean they’re true. 🌿 Practices like meditation, shaking, and binaural beats help calm the DMN and release stress. 🧬 Stress and trauma can rewire brain function—but so can healing. 💞 Positive human connection is a powerful tool for mental regulation. 👧 Teaching teenagers how their brains work can empower a generation of emotional resilience. 🧠 03:26 – What is the Default Mode Network (DMN) and why does it matter? 10:14 – How stress and trauma reshape your brain’s wiring15:20 – Practical tools for rewiring your brain after trauma19:34 – Why human connection is essential for healing24:04 – Teaching the next generation to understand their minds30:26 – How to shift out of the DMN and reclaim your power36:35 – The healing power of doing what you love https://betsyholmberg.com Get your copy here: https://a.co/d/39Pw8jf www.instagram.com/trauma_undone/ https://www.instagram.com/iamnatashajune National Domestic Violence Hotline - 800-799-7233 DISCLAIMER: This podcast and all related content is for informational purposes only.

    Grief, Joy, and the Power of Choice w/ Marie Alessi
    2025/05/13
    In this moving episode of Trauma Undone, host Natasha June sits down with Marie Alessi—a mindset coach, author, and widow who turned profound personal grief into a movement of healing. After the sudden loss of her husband, Marie made a radical choice: to walk through grief with grace and embrace joy alongside sorrow.

Together, they explore the choices we make after loss, the importance of honest conversations about death (especially with children), and how grief can actually expand the heart.

  • Healing The Roots of Your Trauma w/ Kat Daou

    Healing The Roots of Your Trauma w/ Kat Daou
    2025/04/23
    Welcome to this transformative episode of Trauma Undone! Today, Natasha June is joined by the insightful Kat Daou, an expert in Family Constellation Therapy. Kat unpacks the origins of this ancestral healing modality—rooted in Zulu traditions and later developed by Bert Hellinger—and shares how it helps individuals break free from generational patterns of pain, loss, and abandonment. Drawing from her own journey through chronic health challenges, Kat highlights the deep link between inherited trauma and emotional well-being, the subtle power of intuition, and how we can all begin to heal the invisible threads that bind us to our past. 🌀 Family Constellation Therapy is based on indigenous wisdom and addresses generational trauma by revealing hidden dynamics within the family system. 💔 Unhealed lineage wounds often show up in our lives as recurring blocks—especially around abandonment, addiction, or emotional pain. 🧬 We inherit more than DNA—babies absorb emotional states in the womb, shaping their nervous systems before birth. 🧙🏽‍♀️ Intuition is a compass—both the facilitator and the client rely on inner knowing to guide the healing process. 🛠️ Repair is possible—words carry energy in these sessions, opening the door for release, reconciliation, and transformation. 🌱 Healing begins with awareness—checking in with yourself and exploring family dynamics is the first step to becoming a cycle breaker. https://www.katdaou.com https://www.instagram.com/kat_daou https://www.canva.com/design/DAGRxhf6XxI/mqUgXHT2Cz3EZEJK8zu1NQ/view?utm_content=DAGRxhf6XxI&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=uniquelinks&utlId=hebb6c6cb40 www.instagram.com/trauma_undone/ https://www.instagram.com/iamnatashajune National Domestic Violence Hotline - 800-799-7233 DISCLAIMER: This podcast and all related content is for informational purposes only.
