“It’s not my baby’s fault. But when her hand touched my neck, I panicked" Denise- Teaser

"It’s not my baby’s fault. But when her hand touched my neck, I panicked — like I wasn’t even in my body anymore.” In this month's upcoming episode, Denise speaks the truth so many survivors hold in silence — what happens when sexual trauma doesn’t stay in the past, but shows up in the most intimate, everyday moments of parenting. Breastfeeding. Birth. Even a hug from your child. When your nervous system still holds the memory, motherhood hits differently. In Part 2, we dive into: — Birth trauma & why it’s often worse for survivors — The shame of not being the “perfect mother” — Breastfeeding, body boundaries & the guilt no one talks about — How healing your neuroception can shift your whole life — Why talk therapy alone wasn’t enough for her — And the one thing she wishes every OB/midwife knew This episode is raw, real, and deeply validating. You are not alone. And you are not broken. Available soon on all streaming services Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
