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 👋🏽
Welcome back to the 2nd part of the series on the inner child. If you have not listened to episode 27 yet, pause here, go back and listen to that one because it sets the foundation for what we will talk about today.
In today’s episode, I’ll go through an exercise to help you connect with your inner child.
I’ll also give some background about why these exercises work based on their relation to the brain, so let’s dig in.
I hope this episode blesses you.
Blessings and Love 😊

Hey, Sister-friend 👋🏽
Today, we begin to explore the concept of the inner child, which is one of my favorite topics.
We’ll define who the inner child is and talk about the benefits of getting to know your inner child and why letting them show up is essential to healing your trauma.
This is an important topic because, for many women, the inner child has been suppressed, dismissed or denied. When this happens, it affects how you show up in your adult life. You need to have a healthy inner child experience to have a healthy adult life.
I’ll share some examples of how I got to know and embrace my inner child. I’ll cover the inner child in two episodes by going into the “what and how” today, and next week, I will share some practical exercises you can use to get to know your inner child.
I hope this episode supports you.
Blessings and Love 😊
Jenniel

Happy New Year Sister-Friend 👋🏽
I hope you had a blessed Christmas week and managed to strike the balance between rest and fun. I had a lovely holiday; I spent time with my favourite people and doing my favourite activities, which included cozying up in front of the fireplace and watching reruns of my favourite Christmas movies. I did have a good balance between socializing and sleeping, and I am blessed to be here with you, starting the new year off together.
The new year is a time when people tend to make resolutions for what they want to do, and as you think about what’s next, you might have some disappointment around things you did not accomplish in 2023.
Having unmet goals does not feel good; depending on the trauma history, it can cause you to feel like a failure or affect your self-esteem and your outlook on life. When the self-esteem begins to wane, it impacts how you show up in different areas of life. Then the internal conversation starts, those little mental gremlins that quickly suggest you are not good enough, or not trying hard enough, or you will never get to where you want to go.
In this episode, we’ll explore three steps to deal with that disappointment and in the next episode we will look at strategies to ensure 2024 is better for you.
I hope this episode supports you.
Blessings and Love 😊
Jenniel

Happy Holidays, Seasons Greetings, Merry Christmas, sister friend 👋🏽
Different people have different responses and experiences regarding the holidays, and whatever is going on for you, I hope you are finding space to enjoy the essence of the season.
Today I’ll be talking about what the essence of Christmas means from the perspective of Trauma.
We’ll explore how Jesus himself experienced various forms of trauma and how he overcame them, providing hope and understanding for those of us who have faced childhood trauma.
If you’ve experienced physical, verbal, social, emotional, sexual abuse or trauma, we’ll look at the fact that Jesus knows exactly what you are going through and why his birth, life, death and resurrection offer everything you need to move from trauma to triumph.
I hope this episode encourages you.
Blessings and Love 😊

Seasons Greetings, Sister-friend 👋🏽
Christmas is one week away, and some of you may be excited for the holidays, as you look forward to reconnecting and spending time with loved ones.
Some of you may be just a little bit anxious about the thought of being in the same space as certain relatives. Sure, you love your people, but let’s face it, families can be complicated.
There may have been past hurt, unresolved dramas and traumas that are causing you to worry about getting through the upcoming family events while staying emotionally stable.
Today, I want to share some tips you can use if you are concerned about being triggered this holiday season at family events.
You will walk away with a plan you can implement and execute this season and beyond to deal with any social setting.
I hope you find this episode supportive.
Blessings and Love 😊

Hey, Sister-friend 👋🏽
The Christmas season is here, and it's traditionally a time of giving. People go all out to gift items to friends and loved ones and sometimes themselves.
Picture this, It's Christmas morning, and you've got a beautifully wrapped gift sitting under the tree. Your name is on it, and even though you gifted it to yourself, you are still so excited about it. You carefully unwrap it, and what do you find? A gift tag that reads "Forgiveness."
That's right, forgiveness is one of the most precious gifts you can give to yourself.
Today we will explore the benefits of forgiveness, what it actually means to forgive and how you can take steps to gift it to yourself. Forgiveness is not about erasing the past but about releasing the power it holds over you, and it's a gift that keeps on giving throughout your life.
When you choose to forgive, you're choosing to breathe fresh air, and you begin to experience a profound sense of inner peace and joy. It's like a weight being lifted from your heart, making room for love, grace, and joy to flood in.
As you forgive, you'll notice a shift in your relationships with others. The walls you've built to protect yourself start to crumble, and you discover that you're more open, more empathetic, and more capable of loving and being loved.
Remember, you're not alone on this journey. We're in this together, sister-friends!
I hope this episode blesses you.
Blessings and Love 😊
