You’re Not Stuck—Your Body Is Protecting You with Yvonne Alers

In this episode, Jill is joined by Yvonne Alers for a conversation on what it really means when we say trauma lives in the body. They explore how past experiences can become stored in the body, shaping patterns like dissociation, shutdown, or holding everything in. Rather than seeing these responses as problems, they look at them as forms of protection—and why creating a sense of safety is essential for any real healing to happen. Together, they share ways to begin reconnecting with the body, from sitting with discomfort to supporting the inner child and building self-compassion. This episode offers a powerful reminder: your body isn’t working against you—it’s doing its best to keep you safe. Healing begins when you learn how to feel safe enough to stay present within it.
