Shades of Trauma Healing | Childhood Trauma, Trust Issues, Coping Skills, Growth Mindset, Trust God, Discernment, Purpose
*** Top 2.5% Podcast *** Do you want to heal the childhood trauma wounds that are holding you back and keeping you from confidently living the life God wants you to live? Does your trauma history keep you crippled by fear, unable to discern and trust God’s plan, process, and purpose for your life? The effects of childhood trauma can show up as low moods, negative thoughts, overthinking, anxiety, crippling fear, low self-worth, physical illness, constant comparison, or emotional disconnection. I’ve been there. Hey sister-friend 👋🏽 Welcome to the Shades of Trauma Healing Podcast. A space for Christian women of all beautiful shades to experience trauma healing, move beyond blocks and begin fully living the life God is calling them to live. I’m so glad you’re here 😊 I’m Jenniel, a dearly loved daughter of God, trauma thriver, trauma therapist, and life coach, living out my purpose. The impacts of my childhood trauma remained unaddressed for years. I struggled through life, feeling stuck, unsafe, sensitive to threats of danger, and emotionally disconnected from God and the people around me. I desperately wanted to know and live out my purpose but had difficulty hearing God and figuring it out. I pursued education, career goals, ministry, and travelled, trying to find my place and call in this world. I thought had to do more things, but no matter what I did, I still felt unsure of who I was and what I was meant to do. I finally realized that the key to becoming who God wanted me to be started with facing my trauma wounds and pursuing holistic healing so I could remove the obstacles that prevented me from hearing God and experiencing life fully. As I healed from the emotional and somatic impacts of childhood trauma, my relationship with God improved, and I gained clarity about who I am and who God wanted me to be. I began to thrive. Today, I’m the most emotionally and spiritually healthy version of myself. I’m embracing more joy and laughter, and I’m living God’s call on my life as I walk in relationship with him. If you want to overcome the childhood trauma wounds that are holding you back… If you want to develop your ability to trust God and begin thriving in the life he is calling you to live… This podcast is for you. Here you’ll receive 🌟Trauma education to help identify and address the impacts of childhood trauma that keep you stuck. 🌟Mindset strategies and relational tips to help you develop your connection with others. 🌟Spiritual applications to help you deepen your trust and connection with God so you can gain clarity and discernment 🌟Motivational stories from other survivors so you see that you can heal and thrive after childhood trauma. My healing journey led me to address the emotional, spiritual, social, and neurological impacts and wounds caused by trauma, and this resulted in freedom like I’ve never known. And I’d love to share what I learned and experienced with you! We will approach trauma healing while walking together with God, The One who loves you most and wants you to heal and live an abundant life of joy, peace, and purpose. Today God is saying to you, his daughter… “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.” Isaiah 41:10. God’s got you, sister-friend, so let’s do this.

Hey, Sister-friend 👋🏽
This month is National Recovery Month and my guest today is Dr. Norm Wielsch who was a police officer for over 26 years. During that time, he experienced many traumatic incidents. He shares his story of diagnosed with a neuromuscular disease that caused him to endure over 30 surgeries, which led to an opioid addiction.
Norm made some poor decisions that landed him in a federal prison. While in prison, Norm gained a master's and a doctorate in Christian counselling, and learned how God heals trauma.
He explains this in his book Christ-Centered Healing of Trauma: Healing a Broken Heart.
I hope this episode blesses and inspires you.
In Healing and Love 😊

I was finding that my mind was getting preoccupied with all the things in my day and world, and it was robbing my peace. At the end of the day, I felt like there were more things to do than I got done, and I did not like where my head was, so I decided to apply 5 daily practices that have shifted my mindset, giving me more peace and allowing me to declare each day as a success.

78 | Struggling With Anger? What You Need to Know to Manage it Better
Monday Sep 02, 2024
Monday Sep 02, 2024
Hey, Sister-friend 👋🏽
The movie Diary of a Mad Black Woman is one of many that does a good job of showing what can happen when a woman takes and takes without processing her emotions in a healthy way.
In many cultures, women are not encouraged to get mad, they are expected to remain poised, polite and in control, but often there is rage beneath what is seen because of all they are experiencing or have experienced.
We’re going to talk about anger today, the ways you struggle with it and how to express and manage it better.
I hope this episode blesses and inspires you.
In Healing and Love 😊

Hey, Sister-friend 👋🏽
Today, let's talk about something real, something maybe a little raw: trusting God when life feels…well, not so trusting.
You've been hurt in the past, you’ve dealt with some heavy stuff, and now the idea of trusting anyone, let alone God, feels like a big, fat "NOPE!" Been there, believe me. But here's the thing: I believe the healing journey for women of faith includes learning to trust God and his plan, and calling for our lives.
So, let's explore some ways to rebuild that trust, bit by bit
I hope this episode blesses and inspires you.

Hey, Sister-friend 👋🏽
You’ve probably heard this phrase bantered around a lot “live your calling” or “find your purpose”. These terms set people on this existential hunt to find the divine reason for their existence. But what does the term calling mean anyway, and more specifically, what does it mean to you?
Today, I’ll be talking about the two types of calling and what you can do to gain clarity on both.
I hope this episode blesses and inspires you.
