The Healing Version
Welcome to "The Healing Version" podcast, where I share my personal journey of growth and healing. In each episode, we dive into the parts of ourselves that still need healing. One thing I’ve learned is that to truly heal, we must confront the pain—whether it stems from relationships, triggers, trauma, abuse, or neglect. Together, we'll face it all as we strive to establish healthy boundaries and create better, more fulfilling connections. Let’s support one another on this path to healing. ❤️🩹

You Are Safe Now: Inner Child Healing with Lisa Watson
In this deeply moving episode of The Healing Versions Podcast, Deborah sits down with transformational coach, author, and founder of Awaken the One, Lisa Watson, for a raw and expansive conversation about healing, inner child work, and reclaiming personal sovereignty. Lisa shares her powerful life journey—from a childhood shaped by abandonment, addiction, and emotional neglect, to nearly three decades in a narcissistic marriage—and how those experiences ultimately led her to her life’s calling. Rather than being defined by trauma, Lisa explains how early exposure to spiritual principles and personal development helped her alchemize pain into purpose.

This episode dives into: How abandonment wounds show up in adult relationships Why the first seven years of life are so critical to subconscious programming The connection between trauma, nervous system dysregulation, and addiction What reparenting yourself actually looks like in everyday life How awareness, self-talk, and boundaries become pathways to freedom Why healing isn’t about fixing yourself—but remembering your innocence This conversation is honest, emotional, and empowering.

Decolonizing the Single Woman’s Mindset with Fanny Tristan, LCSW

Decolonizing the Single Woman’s Mindset with Fanny Tristan, LCSW
In this raw and resonant conversation, host Deborah Moffatt of The Healing Version sits down with licensed clinical social worker and founder of Restority Space, Fanny Tristan, to unpack the complex intersection of trauma, womanhood, and singlehood for Black and Brown women. Fanny shares her journey into social work and how her personal experiences as an eldest daughter shaped her trauma-informed approach. She highlights the unique emotional challenges that firstborn daughters face—especially perfectionism, anxiety, and depression—and how these intersect with systemic pressures around relationships, marriage, and motherhood. Together, Deborah and Fanny dive deep into the colonized mindsets around love, self-worth, and gender roles. Fanny explains how women often internalize shame or a sense of being "behind" when single in their 30s or 40s, and why therapy shouldn’t always be about diagnosing but about creating supportive, holistic environments where women can thrive. Fanny also discusses how her platform, Her Soul Supply, offers live masterclasses, retreats (like her recent one in Oaxaca, Mexico), and group coaching for single Black and Brown women to heal, explore their identity, and form intentional sisterhood. This episode is a rich, unfiltered reminder that: You don’t have to be chosen to be worthy. Softness requires safety. Sisterhood heals. Healing is political. 🔗 Learn more about Fanny's work: Website: Retreats + Programs: Instagram: If you’d like to donate to The Healing Version podcast, you can send contributions via: 💸 CashApp: $thehealingversion 🫶 Patreon: Your support helps us continue sharing meaningful conversations 🎙️, uplifting stories 📖, and promoting real healing in our community 🌿.

Unresolved Conflict & Holding Grudges
👉🏾 Follow and explore our new website: — your new home for healing, updates, merch, and more! 💫 In this raw and reflective episode of The Healing Version, Deborah dives deep into a topic that hits home for many: unresolved conflict and holding grudges. Continuing the Dysfunctional Family Series, she unpacks how emotional wounds that are left unspoken can fester into bitterness, silence, and even sickness. Deborah shares personal stories, cultural insight, and tough truths—like the illusion that ignoring conflict will make it disappear and how generational patterns of avoidance keep us stuck. She also explores how holding grudges shows up in our behavior—through spite, microaggressions, silent treatments, and unrealistic expectations—and how it silently erodes our relationships, especially with those we love most, like our children. If you've ever struggled with expressing hurt, been misunderstood, or wanted deeper healing in your family dynamic, this episode is your mirror. Deborah keeps it real, funny, and honest—because healing is messy, but it's necessary.

Uninvited To The Table: The Cost of Coming Out to Family
In this raw and soul-stirring episode of The Healing Version, host Deborah creates space for the truth so many LGBTQ+ people carry in silence: the pain, courage, and complexity of coming out—especially to family. Coming out is often portrayed as a celebration, but for many, it’s met with silence, shame, or outright rejection. In this episode, Deborah unpacks the emotional weight of telling the truth about who you are, what it costs when that truth isn’t received with love, and how to begin healing when home no longer feels safe. With powerful reflections and real listener stories, Deborah reminds us that coming out isn’t just about sexuality—it’s about coming back to yourself. You’ll hear affirmations for anyone who’s ever had to hide, encouragement for those still finding their voice, and a message for families learning to love better. Because healing starts with truth. And on The Healing Version, we honor every version of who you are. 🌈 This episode is for the ones who came out and lost everything—and the ones still waiting to be fully seen.
