About this listen
What if the parts of yourself you avoid… are the very parts holding your power?
In this episode of The Unscripted Woman Podcast, Kelly sits down with master healer and mental health specialist Anni Eza, founder of Seeds of Bliss, to explore the real depth of shadow work, trauma healing, and ego death.
Anni shares how her journey into healing began through death, emotional suppression, and learning to navigate the shadows most of us are taught to avoid.
In this conversation, we explore:
What shadow work actually is (and what it isn’t)
How trauma is stored in the body and nervous system
Why relying only on the mind keeps you stuck
The difference between thinking and true presence
How suppressed emotion manifests as disease, behavior patterns, and self-sabotage
Why you cannot be your own healer when navigating deep trauma
The real outcome of shadow work: wholeness, freedom, and unshakeable self-trust
We also discuss:
Trauma patterns formed in childhood
Emotional intelligence vs mental over-analysis
Why “messiness” is a prerequisite for growth
What it means to become whole instead of perfect
If you’ve ever felt like traditional therapy wasn’t enough…
If you’ve sensed there’s something deeper beneath your patterns…
If you’re ready to stop bypassing and start integrating…
This episode will challenge and expand you.

She is the creator and host of The Unscripted Woman Podcast, where she spotlights real, raw conversations with women who are rewriting the rules and rising on their own terms.
Kelly’s mission is simple:
to help women stop following the script, and design a life that finally feels like theirs.
