Trauma can seep through so many things for you if you don't confront it.

Through physical pain, anxiety, how you interact with others, your body crashing at what feels like the worst time, your body speaks to you constantly.

When you spend time pushing down what you've experienced or you're too afraid to confront yourself, it can seep through all areas of your life.

Check out my experience with encountering trauma, confronting it and breaking the cycle of generational trauma.
