Reclaiming Your Life: Healing Trauma with Patience, Boundaries, and Self-Kindness with Licensed Psychotherapist, Podcaster, and Fellow Survivor Nikki Eisenhauer
In this episode I sit down with Nikki Eisenhauer, licensed psychotherapist, mental health podcaster, and fellow survivor, to explore the complex realities of healing from childhood trauma and complex PTSD.
Nikki shares her courageous story of growing up in fear and chaos, carrying the impossible burden of protecting her younger sisters, and facing the painful truths of family estrangement. She opens up about how trauma reshapes our nervous systems, why healing is not linear, and the radical patience and self-kindness it takes to reclaim peace.
Together, we talk about the necessity of setting boundaries, not just with others, but within our own minds to silence the relentless critical voice that keeps us stuck. Nikki reveals why finding the right therapist is vital, why sampling different therapeutic approaches is part of the process, and how no contact can be a profound act of self-love and protection.
This conversation is a testament to resilience, and the unshakable belief that we can rise above our past. Nikki also introduces her transformative Boundaries Intensive, a six-week course designed to equip you with practical tools for creating healthy boundaries, especially during challenging family dynamics and holidays.
You can listen to Nikki’s podcast “Emotional Badass” on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
