What if the stories you tell yourself are holding you back from healing? In this powerful episode, Shannon sits down with psychotherapist Karen Dwyer-Tesoriero to explore how negative self-talk, perfectionism, and unresolved childhood trauma can shape our health, relationships, and entire lives.

Karen shares:

  1. Her own journey through financial crisis, divorce, and rebuilding her life by challenging inherited beliefs and self-doubt
  2. Why so many of our limiting beliefs and perfectionist tendencies are rooted in childhood messages
  3. How somatic therapy, EMDR, and body-based practices can help move trauma out of the body and create real change
  4. The difference between being “triggered” and “activated”-and why language matters in trauma healing
  5. Practical strategies for identifying and shifting negative self-talk, setting boundaries, and embracing imperfection
  6. Real-life examples of how trauma can manifest as physical symptoms, and why addressing the nervous system is key to holistic wellness

Tune in for a compassionate, eye-opening conversation about breaking generational patterns, reclaiming your self-worth, and unlocking the next level of healing-mind and body.
