Did you grow up feeling lonely, isolated, and emotionally disconnected from your parents?  Do you find yourself struggling with guilt, shame, fear, and self-sabotage? Are you a people pleaser at the sacrifice of your own mental and physical health?  Do you struggle with anxiety when it comes to confrontation, and figures of authority?  Hi! I’m Dena, Trauma Informed Health Coach and host of the Healing Begins on the Inside Podcast.

I grew up in a home with my father who was an alcoholic until he passed at the age of 58 and an emotionally unavailable mother.  While physically my needs were taken care of, my home was not a safe space.  I never knew what to expect and mostly tried to stay out of everyone’s way.  Up until my mid 40’s  I struggled with low self-esteem, boundaries, difficulty with my own emotional regulation, anxiety, particularly with figures of authority, guilt, shame, and what I now have to come to understand, co-dependency. 

My healing journey is far from over but I am on a mission to empower other women who grew up with emotionally unavailable or toxic parents to reprogram your beliefs and create healthy boundaries with food, your body, and stored trauma that no longer serves you.

You are in control of your future and you have the power to take control of your life and create the happiness and fulfillment you truly deserve!

If you are tired of living on fumes and are ready to reclaim your body, mind and spirit, this podcast is for you!
