45. Sex After Trauma: What No One Talks About | Healing, Painful Sex, and Reclaiming Pleasure

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536598/fan_mail/new] In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey with sex after trauma, painful sex, and healing from sexual abuse. Before I remembered my trauma, sex felt uncomfortable, painful, and I would often freeze in my body without understanding why. As memories surfaced, I began a three-year healing journey with my husband, learning how to communicate, rebuild safety, and reconnect to my body. In this episode, I talk about: • What sex felt like before I remembered my trauma • How trauma can show up as pain, numbness, or freezing during intimacy • The process of healing sexual trauma within a relationship • Why communication and emotional safety are essential for healing • What sex feels like now after doing the deep work to release trauma and reconnect to my body Today, sex feels completely different. I experience pleasure, connection, and safety in a way I never thought was possible. If you’re navigating painful sex, intimacy struggles, or healing from past trauma, this episode is a reminder that healing is possible, and there is so much more available for you on the other side. ~ Hey love, I’m Sarah! 💫 Holistic Practitioner & Transformational Coach behind The Vibe Higher Podcast.

44. Milestones & Breakdowns...I thought my life was over...

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2536598/fan_mail/new] In this raw and vulnerable episode, I share a moment where I truly felt like my life was falling apart. After celebrating small milestones in my business, I experienced a powerful emotional breakdown right before my menstrual cycle began, reminding me that healing and growth often come in waves. I open up about my journey with trauma healing, emotional release before your period, and the hormonal shifts that can bring buried emotions to the surface. This is an honest conversation about why breakdowns can be part of transformation, and how sometimes parts of our life need to crumble so something more aligned can emerge. If you’re navigating personal growth, healing from past trauma, or emotional shifts around your menstrual cycle, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the breakdown is actually the breakthrough. ~ Hey love, I’m Sarah! 💫 Holistic Practitioner & Transformational Coach behind The Vibe Higher Podcast.
