What if healing your trauma isn't about thinking differently - but feeling differently?

In this episode of Awaken Your Authentic Self, host Jessica Rooks sits down with Shamanic Medicine Woman, Keening Grief Tender, Executive Coach, and Art Historian Martha Wright for a conversation about nervous system regulation, somatic healing, and why lasting trauma recovery begins in the body - not the mind.

Together, Jessica and Martha explore why so many people remain stuck in cycles of anxiety, burnout, and emotional overwhelm despite years of therapy, personal development, and spiritual practice. The answer, Martha explains, isn't found by thinking harder. It's found by learning to listen to the wisdom held within the body.

Drawing from Celtic wisdom traditions, somatic awareness, grief tending, and decades of guiding clients through profound transformation, Martha shares why real healing isn't about avoiding pain or chasing "love and light". It's about developing the courage to meet the parts of ourselves that have been waiting to be witnessed all along.

"Why is that fierce, bad-ass energy actually necessary for real trauma healing, and where do most people get stuck trying to be polite with their pain?" - Jessica Rooks
