"Puzzling Minds" is a captivating podcast that delves into the intricate connections between breaking free from generational trauma and the profound impact trauma can have on different aspects of our being. Join me as we navigate the complex puzzle of healing and self-discovery, exploring how trauma shapes our emotions, relationships, and personal growth. Get ready to unravel the mysteries of resilience and find inspiration in stories of triumph over adversity. Tune in and let's piece together the puzzle of healing together!
In this episode of Puzzling Minds, we dive deep into The Onion—a powerful metaphor for the behavioral change journey. Change doesn’t happen all at once—it unfolds in layers, just like an onion. Using the Transtheoretical Model of Change (TTM) as our foundation, we explore the emotional, mental, and behavioral shifts that occur as we move through stages like Precontemplation, Contemplation, Preparation, Action, and Maintenance.
I’ll guide you through what each layer represents: from the initial resistance and fear of peeling back old habits, to the vulnerable messiness of rediscovering who you are beneath your survival strategies.
Whether you’re facing burnout, struggling with self-sabotage, or standing at the edge of a major life decision, this episode will give you the insight and reassurance that change—real, lasting change—is possible. But it starts from within.
Peeling the onion isn’t always comfortable… but it’s how we get to the root.

Episode 28: Living Authentically: Breaking Free from Who You Were Told to Be
In this episode of Puzzling Minds, we explore what it truly means to live authentically after trauma. If you’ve ever felt like you’re performing a version of yourself to survive—people-pleasing, second-guessing your voice, or staying silent to keep the peace—this conversation is for you. I’ll share how I began to shed the roles I was taught to play and started showing up in my truth. We’ll talk about the emotional risks, the freedom on the other side, and how you can begin living more aligned with your values, not your wounds.
