In this episode of Scary Calm with Lisa Lacy, Lisa sits down with Sherry Canino—a holistic trauma healer, author, and fierce advocate for survivors of narcissistic abuse. Together, they dive into the complex journey of breaking free from toxic cycles, rebuilding a sense of self, and embracing the power of community in the healing process.

Sherry shares her insights on how art therapy can unlock deep emotional wounds, why retreats provide a sacred space for transformation, and how connection with others can be the key to reclaiming your life. They discuss the raw realities of leaving an abusive relationship, the emotional rollercoaster of detaching from trauma bonds, and the deep, sometimes terrifying peace that follows.

If you’re searching for a space where your pain is understood, your healing is honored, and your strength is celebrated—you’ve found it. Because sometimes, the calm after the storm is the scariest part—but you don’t have to face it alone.
