Some memories whisper, some scream, and some sit in the corner like a shadow you pretend not to see. This episode digs into the weight of the past — the parts we thought we’d buried, the chapters we swore we were done reading, and the ghosts that still know our names.

I’m talking about those moments that hit you out of nowhere:

the smell that takes you back,

the voice that cracks something open,

the old fear that shows up right when you think you’re finally fine.

We’ll explore why the body remembers long after the mind disconnects, why certain childhood wounds follow us into adulthood, and how our nervous system reacts when old stories start rattling their chains again.

And then… we’ll talk about the good part — the reclaiming.

What it looks like to stop running, to stand your ground, and to gently rebuild the places you once abandoned inside yourself. Healing isn’t linear, and it definitely isn’t quiet. But it is possible, and it’s a hell of a lot less lonely when someone says, “Yeah, me too.”

If you’ve ever felt blindsided by your own history, or wondered why the past shows up at the worst moments, settle in. This one goes deep.
