Are You Stuck in Your Trauma Story? When Healing Becomes Repetition

There’s a fine line between healing… and reliving. In this powerful episode, we talk about what happens when you become stuck in your trauma story—telling it over and over, identifying with it so deeply that it becomes who you think you are.

Nat explores how constantly retelling the story can become a form of self-protection, validation-seeking, or even identity. And how—without realizing it—we can become addicted to the familiar pain because it feels safer than the unknown of healing.

💬 Inside this episode, we explore:
• Why some people feel addicted to talking about their trauma
• How the nervous system gets caught in loops of reactivation
• Why validation is important—but why it’s not the final step
• The difference between honoring your story and becoming trapped in it
• A gentle hypnotic process to help your mind begin detaching from the pain as your identity
• Psychotherapy insights to help you feel safe enough to move forward
• NLP techniques to shift your story from victim to empowered survivor

This episode isn’t about denying what you went through—it’s about giving yourself
permission to live a life beyond it.

✨ You are not your trauma. You are the person who survived it. Now… who are you ready to become?
