Episode Summary:
In this powerful conversation, Anna sits down with internationally renowned speaker, Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner, and author Brittany Piper to explore how we begin to rebuild self-trust after trauma—not just cognitively, but somatically. Brittany shares insights from her own healing journey as a rape survivor and from over a decade of work in trauma-informed care, including her transformative Body-First Healing framework.
They talk about the science and soul of nervous system recovery, the fear of being seen, and the courage it takes to step into your voice and visibility after trauma. Brittany also offers a behind-the-scenes look at her new book, Body-First Healing: A Revolutionary Guide to Nervous System Recovery—a practical and compassionate guide to reclaiming safety, regulation, and vitality in your body and life.
Whether you're in the early stages of your healing or years into the process, this episode offers deeply validating, body-centered wisdom to support you on the path of self-trust and recovery.
