NOTE: The podcast is currently on pause. Feel free to explore past episodes!!.
Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right — but still feel disconnected, stuck, and, well, unhappy?
You're not alone.
I'm Nurjan Sterbenz — a foreign-born mama and trauma-informed coach who spent years chasing happiness and success outside of myself, not realizing I had to stop looking for external solutions and start doing the internal work. I needed to heal the trauma that kept me stuck in chronic exhaustion, anxiety, and overwhelm — impacting negatively my marriage, relationships, and parenting.
Welcome to Foreign-Born Mama — where we learn to heal trauma and transform our parenting, marriages, and lives.
Each week, we'll explore:
- How trauma secretly impacts every area of your life
- Why healing is the key to unlocking everything you desire
- Real tools and practices you can use to start healing today
- Inspiring conversations with experts and moms who've healed and transformed their lives
Healing is possible. The life you truly desire — filled with peace, joy, love, health and wealth — is waiting for you on the other side of healing.
It's time we heal, rise, and thrive as foreign-born mamas!

Foreign-Born Mama | Trauma Healing, Transforming Parenting, Marriage and Relationships
How does trauma affect our brains and nervous systems?
In this episode, I invite you to slow down and connect with natural cycles of winter season. The episode goes then to explain how trauma affected our brain size and our nervous system. As childhood trauma survivors, we need to understand the difference between sympathetic and parasympathetic systems of our brains, so we can begin noticing where we usually habitually live. I also explain how chronic high alert mode can deteriorate our health and lead to chronic health conditions. Understanding our nervous system and finding ways to calm it, will help us to feel better and thrive as moms. But most of all, it will help us to cultivate some self-love and self-compassion that we so much deserve in motherhood phase of our lives.
I would love to hear from you!
