  <h1>Tiffany Owen on Breaking Free from Trauma and Self-Sabotage</h1>

  <p>If you’re feeling stuck, self-sabotaging, or longing for real change—especially when life looks “fine” on the outside—this episode is for you.</p>

  <p>Health journalist Natalie Tysdal sits down with <strong>Tiffany Owen</strong>, mindset and fitness coach, author of <em>Wounded to Warrior</em>, and mother of four, to share powerful and practical wisdom on overcoming trauma, taking ownership of your life, and becoming the woman you’re meant to be.</p>

  <p>Tiffany gets brutally honest about her battles with trauma, addiction, perfectionism, and people-pleasing—and the turning points that led to her complete transformation. Expect actionable tools, radical self-compassion, and bite-sized practices to help you reclaim your joy, health, and identity—no matter where you’re starting from.</p>

  <h2>3 Must-Know Takeaways from This Episode</h2>

  <h3>1. You Can Change—Even If You Don’t “Feel Like It”</h3>

  <p>Real transformation doesn’t require overhauling your life overnight. It starts with one small step—one promise at a time—even (and especially) on the days you want to give up.</p>

  <h3>2. Victim Mindset Keeps You Stuck—Ownership Sets You Free</h3>

  <p>Shifting from “Why me?” to “What did I learn, and what’s possible now?” helps you reclaim your power, process pain, and move forward.</p>

  <h3>3. Rewrite Your Story Each Morning</h3>

  <p>Tiffany’s “declaration paragraph” exercise—a mix of journaling and affirmation—is a science-backed mindset tool that helps you speak to the woman you’re becoming, not just the one you’ve been.</p>

  <h2>In This Conversation, We Cover:</h2>

  <ul>

    <li>What it really looks like to hit “rock bottom”—and how to rise again</li>

    <li>How trauma and people-pleasing can manifest as addiction or self-sabotage</li>

    <li>The critical difference between openness and resistance in healing</li>

    <li>Tiffany’s go-to tools: power promises, non-negotiables, and morning routines</li>

    <li>Why reframing your “story” shifts your results in fitness, mindset, and mental health</li>

    <li>The role of physical movement and nutrition—and why they’re not the whole story</li>

    <li>Free resources to jumpstart your mindset, hormones, and healthy routines</li>

  </ul>
