What if trauma doesn’t get created the way they told us?

Most healing work I’ve come across tries to fix your nervous system, release your emotions, or change how you perceive what happened. My guest, Brandon Bozarth, makes a very different argument: none of that touches the root.

He’s spent nine years working with over 1,000 clients across 20+ countries through something he calls Integrated Somatic Inquiry. The premise is simple but confronting: your suffering isn’t coming from what happened to you, but from what you decided about yourself in that moment.

We go deep into how identity can form in a single shocking moment, why “I am not safe” becomes a self-perpetuating loop, and how those beliefs reinforce themselves over time.

I push back with the most extreme example I can think of: a child losing his family and his arm in a missile strike. Brandon walks through the inquiry in real time so you can actually see how this works.

In the second half, we get into German New Medicine (Germanic Healing Knowledge), the limits of the scientific method, and a deeper conversation on Christ, non-duality, and the difference between knowing you are love and knowing you are loved.

If you feel like you’re dealing with the same pattern over and over again, this will show you why that might be happening.
