Art Saved My Life: Creativity, Vulnerability, & the Courage to Be Seen | Nesha Mistry

In this deeply honest episode of The Redeeming Stories Podcast, Julie M. Lane welcomes Nesha, creator of @nesha_canvascreations and @vulnerablevoices_podcast, for a conversation about healing through art, vulnerability, and human connection. After surviving suicidal thoughts and emotional despair, Nesha shares how creativity, therapy, holistic healing, and self-awareness became a lifeline that ultimately inspired her to create safe spaces for others navigating mental health challenges. Together, they explore emotional regulation, co-regulation, creativity as survival, and the power of being seen without shame. This conversation is a reminder that healing is not linear, vulnerability is not weakness, and no one should have to suffer alone. ⁠Instagram (Art)⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/nesha_canvascreations/?hl=en] ⁠Instagram (Podcast)⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/vulnerablevoices_podcast/] ⁠LinkedIn⁠ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/nesha-mistry-95889a125/]

Why Survival Mode Doesn’t Turn Off | Julie M. Lane

Many women become so accustomed to survival mode that they no longer recognize it as survival. The constant movement; the pressure to keep going; the inability to rest without guilt; these patterns often begin long before we realize they are there. Experts explain that the nervous system learns through experience; not logic. And sometimes the body continues preparing for danger long after circumstances have changed. This reflection explores what it means to recognize those patterns with awareness rather than judgment.

A New Rhythm & Trauma Lives in the Body | Julie M. Lane

Trauma is not just something we remember; it is something the body experiences and holds. As I begin this new rhythm of alternating between podcast conversations and weekly reflections, I wanted to begin with something foundational. So many women move through life questioning themselves, wondering why certain patterns remain even years later. What experts are helping us understand is this: the body learns survival long before the mind understands it. This episode is not about staying in the past. It is about understanding ourselves more clearly, and perhaps with a bit more compassion.

Designing a Life That Feels Good: Healing, Home, and Intentional Living | Kristen Giacomini

In this episode of The Redeeming Stories Podcast, I sit down with Kristen Giacomini, interior designer and founder of Flow Designs, for a conversation that goes far beyond design. Kristen shares how experiencing deep loss at a young age, along with her own health challenges, shaped the way she sees the world and the spaces we live in. What began as a creative path became something much more intentional. A way of helping people create environments that support how they feel, how they function, and how they move through their daily lives. We talk about the connection between our surroundings and our well-being, the role of kindness and self-talk in shaping our lives, and how even the hardest experiences can quietly shape us into more grounded, compassionate versions of ourselves. This conversation is a reminder that healing is not only internal. It is also reflected in the spaces we create, the way we care for ourselves, and the way we choose to live each day.

The Stories We Tell Ourselves and the Ones We Are Learning to Rewrite | Julie M. Lane

Over the past several weeks, I have been writing more consistently through the Redeeming Hub, not with the intention of having something polished or complete, but simply to process, to reflect, and to better understand my own story as it continues to unfold. In this solo episode of The Redeeming Stories Podcast, I step back and reflect on what has been emerging through that writing. Not just the stories themselves, but the patterns underneath them. The voice that has been there all along. The tension between trying to understand the past and learning to accept what cannot be explained. I talk about the inner child, about identity, and about the ongoing nature of healing. About what it looks like to stop trying to fix what was never yours to fix, and instead begin listening more closely to yourself. This episode is quieter. More reflective. It is less about answers and more about awareness. This is the work I continue to share through @redeem_thyself and at juliemlane.com [http://juliemlane.com]. Not a finished story, but an honest one.
