About this listen

In this third episode of The Truth My Body Told, Danielle Bird (Licensed Counselling Therapist & Somatic Attachment Trauma Recovery Coach) responds to a listener email from KK:


“What’s your opinion on saying your limiting beliefs out loud? Does speaking them create them into your reality vs. when they are just in your mind?”


Drawing from her Radical Rebirth™ framework, attachment work, and trauma-informed nervous system approach, Danielle explores:


🌹 What limiting beliefs actually are (survival beliefs rooted in nervous system states of threat)

🌹 Why simply “stamping out” negative beliefs doesn’t work—and can make things worse if you live with trauma or chronic survival states

🌹 The difference between rewiring through the conscious vs. subconscious mind

🌹 Why affirmations can backfire if your body doesn’t believe them

🌹 A practical trauma-informed method to rewire limiting beliefs using safety memories, repetition, and the body’s language

🌹 How Vasavi Kumar’s TikTok advice makes sense and what’s missing to make it safe and effective for those healing complex trauma

🌹 Danielle’s step-by-step equation to rewire the subconscious and create new neural pathways
