Season 3 : Episode 21 - Amanda Quick's Journey from Sex Trafficker's Wife to Empowered Energy Healer

NSFW and NSFkids Alert - On this Episode Amanda Quick, a Quantum Energy Healer and author of  The Sex Trafficker's Wife  reveals the whole spectrum of the power of transformative spirituality.  Amanda vulnerably shares what it is like as a very young woman to have your  family and life BLOWN apart by her husband's criminal behavior.  She is transparent about her initial unwillingness to accept the horrific reality led her to make some mistakes, which she had to pay the price for.  And what was the turnaround?  A psychic's revelation that her inability to SEE the truth was a Karmic result from a past life entanglement with her husband. This realization sends her into the quagmire of challenging social worker's lawyers and the system to keep her children safe from the man who is their father.  It is a wild ride and even has a Hollywood Happily-Ever-After ending.  This is the perfect show to watch for anyone who is in an abusive relationship and needs inspiration to get out, who wants to understand how to protect kids from SA or help them if you suspect something.  Amanda's story reminds us that messy realities take a fierce dedication to resolve but can absolutely lead to a much better life, if one is willing to go through the fire of the discomfort zone.  From the shadows into the light, Amanda also shares her wise insights and the beautiful work she is now doing helping to her clients heal their trauma.

Season 3 : Episode 20 - Giving Voice to Adoptees with Lorah Gerald

Challenging the typical adoptee narratives, The Adopted Chameleon community activist and trauma-informed yoga therapy instructor, Lorah Gerald shares her experiences healing from adoption trauma. Creative Wellness Coach, Leela Davis and Expressive Arts Coach, Kelsay Myers get personal, political, and spiritual with Lorah in this episode. We discuss the power of adoptee stories in correcting social myths around the idea of being “grateful.” We explore the need  to “fix” things or “figure it out” because adoptees are always searching for their identity, their biological family, or a therapist to connect to! We cover surrogacy, foster care, trauma responses, the higher risk of suicide for adoptees, somatic therapies, and “the science” behind the effect of early life separation from birth mothers in a system that buys and sells children, as well as alternatives to growing up in abusive homes in general. Lorah even shares a breathing exercise to help settle a highly activated system. We also cover the intuitive, the energetic, and various resources for adoptee healing that are out there, including Lorah’s own projects centered around giving voice to adoptee experiences. You won’t want to miss this timely conversation on the heels of the overturning of Roe v. Wade and Adoption Awareness Month!  CHECK OUT Lorah Gerald’s upcoming projects: Website - LorahGerald.com [//LorahGerald.com] | Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter and Pinterest - @theadoptedchameleon  You can find What I Didn't Call My Therapist on all major podcast platforms!  And please subscribe, share, and RATE 5 stars where you can!  FOLLOW What I Didn't Tell My Therapist - Reboot podcast on Instagram - @whatididnttellmytherapist | Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/WIDTMT [https://www.facebook.com/WIDTMT] | YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLYUdXole4snkkeWTEnxwVQ [https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fchannel%2FUCLYUdXole4snkkeWTEnxwVQ%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR0nYf9yy1CkXk2hobWOnWcRN188Z2L9kPgHnXjKzv4GtB_lhI7hpHvxdtk&h=AT2ct5Kp8ewlEALhNj5fwAJiW4kJ3GvP8HDQedcmTXN3qbgdLBqFSMjLgS6_Y7GgYOhHAOETd31a9upx1cb3EiiLaKXecJE3wJtOZJ829FpqsuwVGVVEnJ2rixdJFJqvXbG4mSNp9IZ7FeoboTI] FOLLOW Kelsay Myers and Dialogical Persona Healing Arts: Website - dialogicalpersona.com [//dialogicalpersona.com] | Instagram - @dialogicalpersona  FOLLOW Leela Davis and Creative Wellness Coaching: Website - LeelaDavis.com [//LeelaDavis.com] | Instagram - @mypeaceofsanity --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/widtmtpodcast/message

SEASON 3 Begins with Episode 19 - Kelsay & Leela Dish on their Creative Healing Journeys using Writing, Astrology, Human Design, Mediumship & the Kitchen Sink

Welcome to our World of Woo and Wonderful Weirdness.  Kelsay Elizabeth Myers and I, from the first day we met, realized we were Sisters from another Mister AND Mistress!  We both have Michiganian family roots, both grew up feeling like outsiders for very different reasons.  In order to cope with the challenges of this we turned to creative expression - writing, acting, singing and dancing into our adulthood.  In our early 30's we realized we needed more to heal the unique traumas we experienced as children and early adulthood and deepened into spirituality.  Kelsay tells of how she was a reluctant medium since childhood until she started on her path to becoming a Reiki Master.  Leela explains how Astrology helped her map her healing journey since the age of 10.  And more recently they have found purpose and direction in their studies and application of Human Design to their lives.  They both happen to be Projectors.  This episode reveals how healing doesn't just have to be work but can be a delightful and enriching adventure.
