What if the key to healing after loss… started with your body?
When Paula Hindle lost her husband Chris to suicide in 2013, she was suddenly a solo mother to two small children, with grief in one hand and survival in the other.
But what followed wasn’t just a journey through pain, it was a deep, powerful return to the body, to self-worth, and to the kind of healing that reconnects you to life.
Since then, Paula has dedicated herself to healing – emotionally, physically, and spiritually – and now supports other women in reclaiming their strength, sensuality, and self-worth.
Together, Caroline and Paula chat about:
- The early days of widowhood and mothering through trauma
- How grief can disconnect you from your body and how to come home again
- Navigating identity as a widow and a woman, longing for connection and confidence
- Reclaiming your body, confidence, and intimacy after loss
- Finding your inner power to move from surviving to thriving
Quote that resonates with Paula “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we’re spiritual beings having a human experience”
