In this episode, I sit down with Ly’chel Carmichael, and this conversation goes way deeper than just “healing.” We talk about what it actually looks like to grow up feeling misunderstood, learning how to survive early, and carrying that into adulthood without even realizing it. Ly’chel shares her story of struggling in school, being misjudged, going through a life-changing brain injury, and how one person believing in her completely shifted her future. But beyond that… We get into the part a lot of women don’t talk about. Trying to be chosen. Staying in relationships that hurt. Losing yourself in roles, expectations, and what you think you’re supposed to be. She opens up about abusive relationships, infertility, feeling like she was failing as a woman, and hitting a point where she had to ask herself… “Who am I outside of all of this?” And that’s where everything started to change.Through faith, self-reflection, and doing the hard internal work, she began rebuilding her identity from the inside out. Topics Discussed: What it feels like to grow up misunderstood with ADHD and learning challenges How trauma and emotional experiences shape your identity The connection between people-pleasing and losing yourself Why trying to be chosen can lead you into unhealthy relationships What happens when everything you built your identity on falls apart How faith, prayer, and self-awareness helped her rebuild Learning to stop shrinking and start showing up as yourself How healing changes the way you see your life, your struggles, and your purpose This conversation is honest, emotional, and real.If you’ve ever felt like you’ve been holding everything together for everyone else…but don’t know who you are anymore,this episode is for you. ------------------------- 👉DON'T FORGET to FOLLOW ME on my SOCIAL MEDIA: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/letrosespeak1 https://www.facebook.com/asistalovepodcast https://www.facebook.com/HostRoseJones/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/letrosespeak/ https://www.instagram.com/asistalovepodcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rose-jones-015299105/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@letrosespeak https://www.tiktok.com/@asistalovepodcast JOIN OUR COMMUNITY https://podcast.letrosespeak.com/ HEALING THE SURVIVOR COLLECTION https://www.letrosespeak.com/ TIKTOK SHOP: (ASLP T-Shirts) https://vt.tiktok.com/ZT66w2SmS/?page=TikTokShop BUZZSPROUT PODCAST: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1972744/episodes YOUTUBE PODCAST: https://www.youtube.com/@asistalovepodcast/podcasts PLEASE GIVE US FEEDBACK ON OUR PODCAST HERE: https://podcastreview.letrosespeak.com/ LEARN MORE ABOUT ROSE JONES: https://information.letrosespeak.com/ Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1972744/support]
