Episode Synopsis

Have you ever felt like your past trauma has defined your present and shaped your relationships in ways you can’t quite understand?In this deeply moving episode of the Shine Within Podcast, Gina sits down with Carol Odell, therapist, survivor, and author of Girl Groomed: A Therapist's Memoir of Trauma. Carol opens up about her own journey of healing from childhood trauma and how it shaped her path as both a therapist and an advocate for survivors. Through her candid storytelling, Carol shares the pivotal moments that led her to confront her past, reclaim her voice, and ultimately integrate her pain into a more resilient and purposeful life.Carol and Gina discuss the impact of unresolved trauma on intimate relationships and how difficult conversations and hard truths can serve as catalysts for healing. Carol also sheds light on the concept of integration rather than simply "getting over" trauma, emphasizing that true healing involves weaving our past into our present without letting it define us. They also explore the powerful role of community, movement, and somatic practices in releasing the physical manifestations of pain.This episode is a profound reminder that healing is not linear and that being willing to address our deepest wounds can lead to transformation. Tune in to hear Carol’s story, gain insights on navigating trauma, and find inspiration to move forward with grace and self-compassion.Website - www.carolodellmsw.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mosaicofthoughts_ Goodreads - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/215697760-girl-groomedAmazon - https://www.amazon.com/Girl-Groomed-Carol-Odell/dp/1647428726/ Bookshop - https://bookshop.org/p/books/girl-groomed-carol-odell/21633639✨ Transform with Me! ✨🔥 Join me on my health and body-balancing journey! 🔥I’ve been using these powerful, natural drops to curb cravings, boost metabolism, and support my weight loss goals—and I’m already seeing fast results!Curious to learn more?Here’s a quick info link:⁠ https://ltl.is/3qk69pc⁠Ready to try them for yourself?🎉 Special Podcast Listener Offer – Get 15% Off! 🎉Grab your drops here: https://partner.co/s/NDJiNmRmMDNhAt checkout, be sure to click: “CONTINUE AS GUEST”📲 Follow my journey & connect with me!📸 Instagram:⁠⁠@shine_ginakunadian⁠⁠📘 Facebook:⁠⁠ Gina Kunadian⁠⁠💼 LinkedIn:⁠⁠ Gina Kunadian⁠⁠Stay tuned for updates, tips, and real results—I can’t wait to share this transformation with you! 💖CONNECT WITH GINA: Book a Free Call: https://calendly.com/ginakunadian/connect-call-15-minVisit my Website: http://www.ginakunadian.com/Follow Gina: https://linktr.ee/Ginakunadian RESOURCES: My TEDx TalkSobriety: Unlocking Freedom | Gina Kunadian |TEDxPort Saint Luciehttps://youtu.be/73OvW8T2VkM?si=tynb80rJPtCidORrListeners Gift’s: 6-Step Blueprint To An Alcohol-Free Life and navigate the action steps I took to stay sober.
