That’s the fog of emotional neglect — the kind of trauma that doesn’t leave bruises, just a lifelong ache of being unseen.Laura K. Connell is a trauma-informed author, coach, and the creator of The Self-Parenting Solution.She grew up in a deeply chaotic and emotionally neglectful home, spent decades trying to earn her parents’ love, and eventually went no contact after one final, brutal conversation with her father.In this episode, we explore:🔹 How emotional neglect warps your sense of self — and why it’s so often overlooked as “real” trauma🔹 The connection between self-abandonment, people-pleasing, and feeling invisible in relationships🔹 What it actually means to reparent yourself (and why it’s not just an Instagram trend)🔹 How inner child work can transform self-sabotage into self-trust🔹 Why healing often requires stepping away from the very people you’ve spent your life trying to save⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chatSIGN UP FOR SHITSHOW NATION - ADULT CHILD NEWSLETTER👩HELP A GIRL & CAT EAT🐱  www.buymeacoffee.com/adultchild🛍️SHITSHOW MERCH🛍️www.adultchildpodcast.com/shop🎙️NEW TO THE POD🎙️How I learned I was an Adult Child - The Tale of 2 BriansTHE LAUNDRY LIST - Common Characteristics of an Adult ChildFollow Andrea on socialwww.instagram.com/adultchildpodwww.tiktok.com/@adultchildpodhttps://www.youtube.com/@adultchildpodAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  • Unlearning Worthlessness: Spiritual Trauma, Repressed Identity & Inner Child Work w/ Nate Postlethwait
    💨Breathe to Heal: A Somatic Journey to Reclaim Your Inner Child: Early Bird Pricing through July 10th - get your damn spot now!---What happens when the version of you that earned love was never the real you to begin with? This episode is a deep dive into the grief, rage, and liberation that comes from unlearning the worthlessness you were taught to feel.Nate Postlethwait is a trauma educator, writer, and creator of The Other Side of Saved. He grew up in the deep South, survived years of childhood sexual abuse, entered conversion therapy at 18, and spent over a decade trying to pray and perform his pain away. At 30, a full-blown nervous system collapse forced him to finally face the trauma he spent years outrunning—and start the long, messy work of coming home to himself.▪️The Weight of Repressed Identity: What happens when your true self gets buried to survive—and how reclaiming it often begins with grief, rage, and radical honesty.▪️Religious Trauma & Spiritual Bypassing: How faith can become a weapon against authenticity—and why real healing means confronting the harm done in the name of God.▪️The Cost of Performance & Perfectionism: Why many survivors become high achievers—and how nervous system healing allows you to stop performing and start belonging.▪️Nervous System Collapse & Somatic Recovery: What happens when trauma catches up with the body—and how Nate rebuilt safety through EMDR, breathwork, and inner child work.▪️Healing in Community: How real transformation begins in safe, shame-free spaces—where your story doesn’t have to be edited to be accepted.⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chatSIGN UP FOR SHITSHOW NATION - ADULT CHILD NEWSLETTER👩HELP A GIRL & CAT EAT🐱  www.buymeacoffee.com/adultchild🛍️SHITSHOW MERCH🛍️www.adultchildpodcast.com/shop🎙️NEW TO THE POD🎙️How I learned I was an Adult Child - The Tale of 2 BriansTHE LAUNDRY LIST - Common Characteristics of an Adult ChildFollow Andrea on socialwww.instagram.com/adultchildpodwww.tiktok.com/@adultchildpodhttps://www.youtube.com/@adultchildpodAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

  • When Healing Feels Like Falling Apart: EMDR, Dissociation & Disordered Eating w/ Cory Scott
    💨Breathe to Heal: A Somatic Journey to Reclaim Your Inner Child: Early Bird Pricing through July 10th - get your damn spot now!So often the moment we finally started healing is also the moment everything falls apart.For so many trauma survivors, healing doesn’t feel like light and liberation at first—it feels like chaos, confusion, and losing your grip on reality. This episode dives into what it actually looks like when the nervous system starts to thaw.Cory Scott is trauma-integration coach, an EMDR-certified therapist, and Somatic Experiencing practitioner who brings deep nervous system wisdom to her work. But before she became a trauma specialist, she was a young woman clawing her way out of an eating disorder, dissociation, and suicidal ideation. Her own recovery now fuels the way she helps others find safety, connection, and wholeness in their healing journey.🔑 Key Takeaways:Why EMDR can be powerful—but also dangerous—without the right groundwork, especially for those with complex trauma or a history of dissociation.How disordered eating is often less about food—and more about control, shame, and survival, especially for adult children of dysfunctional families.What dissociation actually looks and feels like in the body, and how to recognize when you’re outside your window of tolerance.A free and accessible somatic tool from HeartMath that can help regulate your nervous system in moments of overwhelm (yes, even when you're heating up your coffee).Why real trauma healing isn’t about gritting your way through the pain—but expanding your capacity for joy, love, and pleasure.⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chatSIGN UP FOR SHITSHOW NATION - ADULT CHILD NEWSLETTER👩HELP A GIRL & CAT EAT🐱  www.buymeacoffee.com/adultchild🛍️SHITSHOW MERCH🛍️www.adultchildpodcast.com/shop🎙️NEW TO THE POD🎙️How I learned I was an Adult Child - The Tale of 2 BriansTHE LAUNDRY LIST - Common Characteristics of an Adult ChildFollow Andrea on socialwww.instagram.com/adultchildpodwww.tiktok.com/@adultchildpodhttps://www.youtube.com/@adultchildpodAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
