In this episode of Mother Mayhem, we explore why trauma does not always come with a clear story, how pain can live in the body instead of memory, and why memory gaps are not a sign that nothing happened.
Learn how trauma can show up as panic, shame, hypervigilance, a harsh inner critic, and a body that never fully feels safe.
This episode also addresses the fear many daughters have about starting trauma work without “proof,” the impact of cPTSD on mothers, and why healing does not begin with forcing memories but with building safety in the nervous system.
If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t remember my childhood, so maybe I’m making it up,” this episode is for you.
Topics include:
cPTSD and memory loss
Trauma stored in the body
The inner critic and trauma responses
Healing without remembering
Nervous system safety and self trust
Mothers healing from childhood trauma
