Abuse doesn't always leave physical scars, but it always leaves an impact. In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I sit down with Annette Oltmans — survivor, author, and founder of The M3ND Project — to shine a light on the realities of emotional and covert abuse, and the all-too-common retraumatization that happens when victims seek help but are met with disbelief or dismissal. Annette's groundbreaking work on Double Abuse® gives language to what so many survivors have experienced but struggled to name. Together, we explore what emotional and covert abuse really look like, the risks of misusing terms like “gaslighting” or “narcissism” in legal contexts, and how to safeguard your credibility when telling your story in court or to professionals. We talk about why so many therapists, clergy, and attorneys still miss the signs of abuse and how you can begin finding the ones who truly understand. Most importantly, we discuss how to take those first healing steps with support that validates your experience and helps you move forward. We also highlight valuable resources from The M3ND Project, including free guides, training, and tools designed to help both survivors and professionals respond with clarity and compassion. If you've been struggling to put words to your experience or to find the right help, you are not alone. This conversation will give you insight, hope, and practical direction as you take steps to heal and rebuild your life.

What is Trauma and how we can heal with Rama AchalaTrauma Informed Somatic Coach & Medicine WomanRama is a trauma informed and somatic practitioner, a plant medicine integration coach, a teacher of kambo amazonian medicine, a speaker and a medicine woman. She has supported thousands, all over north America and Costa Rica, to heal mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually.
After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, Rama went against the recommendations of Dr's, said no to injections and pharmaceuticals, and chose her own healing journey. That journey lead her to plant medicines like ayahuasca, San Pedro and the frog medicine, Kambo. She spent many years working with shaman and curanderos, processing unhealed trauma, integrating mystical experiences and remembering the scariness of life.On Rama's own healing journey, she learned how deeply mind, body and emotions are connected and how chronic illnesses can stem from unprocessed trauma stored in the body and unconscious mind. 
She believes we all have the ability to heal ourselves, if we are willing to listen to what our bodies are telling us.Linkshttps://www.heartofkambo.comhttps://www.instagram.com/heartofkambo?igsh=MTlybW51OTlqendzbg%3D%3D&utm_source=qrTags:Alternative Healing Techniques,Chronic Illness,Mind-Body Connection,Mindset,Plant Medicine Integration,Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD),Psychedelics,Self Care,Self-Discovery,Trauma Recovery,What is Trauma and how we can heal with Rama Achala,Podcast,Live Video Podcast InterviewSupport PEG by checking out our Sponsors:Download and use Newsly for free now from www.newsly.me or from the link in the description, and use promo code “GHOST” and receive a 1-month free premium subscription.The best tool for getting podcast guests:https://podmatch.com/signup/phantomelectricghostSubscribe to our Instagram for exclusive content:https://www.instagram.com/expansive_sound_experiments/Subscribe to our YouTube https://youtube.com/@phantomelectricghost?si=rEyT56WQvDsAoRprRSShttps://anchor.fm/s/3b31908/podcast/rssSubstackhttps://substack.com/@phantomelectricghost?utm_source=edit-profile-page

False accusations cut deeper than most people realize. For survivors of abuse, they don't just create conflict — they echo the original wound. In this episode of The Empowering Story Podcast, I share how facing false accusations retraumatized me by triggering the very silence I knew as a child: no one defended me, no one spoke up, no one stood beside me. We'll explore: ✨ How the body remembers abandonment long before the mind can name it ✨ Why false accusations uniquely target a survivor's reclaimed strengths — voice, credibility, boundaries ✨ The paradox of being a trauma professional who is still human and still triggered ✨ How I learned to turn triggers from derailment into bridges of resonance with my clients ✨ Why integration requires community — and how to discern safe people from unsafe ones This isn't about erasing pain. It's about transforming it. About shifting from wounds we carry to wisdom we own.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken and Heather Hughes dive deep into the topic of addiction — exploring what drives addictive behaviors, how trauma and unmet needs often fuel the cycle, and why Splankna can be such a powerful tool in the healing process. Together, they examine addiction not only through the lens of neuroscience and psychology but also through faith, Scripture, and God's heart for freedom. ✨ Takeaways: Addiction is often rooted in unresolved pain and generational patterns.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura shares the powerful origin story that brought her into the world of Splankna: her son Noah's miraculous breakthrough from debilitating separation anxiety. After a unique Splankna session revealed a subconscious memory from infancy, Noah experienced an overnight transformation that reshaped his behavior and brought peace to their family. This story is a touching example of how early life trauma can remain hidden—and how healing is possible when we tap into the subconscious mind. ✨ Takeaways: Subconscious memories, even from infancy, can have profound effects on our current emotional struggles. Splankna accesses the body's stored memory through muscle testing, revealing root causes that talk therapy may not uncover. Healing can come quickly and powerfully when the root issue is addressed. Noah's one-session transformation illustrates the incredible potential of faith-based energy work. This experience is what convinced Laura of the depth and validity of Splankna.

Checking in after 2 years since I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer to share that recovery from the trauma of a diagnosis is possible.  In the last episode I talked about inner strength that I use in managing my mindset as a survivor. The outlook of knowing I will be ok and controlling the things I am allowed to control does not restrict me from looking back at my recovery. This podcast is about sharing my story and advocating. The milestones of recovery from what makes up a diagnosis are important to reflect on, in my opinion.  Since it is summer, I am going to my pool fairly often right now. I love how the water feels on my body and swimming has always been a therapeutic activity for me. So of course I went to my pool as soon as I could after my surgery (2 years ago).  As I work to set goals in my life (also something I talked about in the last episode), I am planning more fun activities each week. Last week I met up at the pool with a few friends and neighbors. This pool time (alone or with friends) is what I call a “great escape”. It is not really an adventure but it takes me to such a different place the moment I enter the gates of the pool.   I crave these moments away from all that makes up my life. In the pool (at the pool), it is a time to move in the water and release physical and emotional tension as I swim (usually very leisurely) up and down the lanes. Last week, when I was with my friends, we sat and ate chips and dip (definitely therapeutic) before going to kick and talk in the water. We had a lot of space to ourselves and it was a completely relaxing block of time.  So as in last week's episode I talked about doing more than just going through the motions of each week in a month, year, etc., I share my experience of how this can be such a boost to keeping connected and having a positive outlook plus some fun during a day in my breast cancer life.  I cannot say for sure if I would have found it so important to block out fun and intentionally plan my life ahead (for fun and function) if I had not been diagnosed with breast cancer. I do know that because of my breast cancer experience, I am grasping on to opportunities to have fun and connect with others, while also taking care of me with great intention.   My recent episode about navigating the mindset in survivorship:  Episode 57 Inner Strength Unveiled: Navigating Mindset and Hope After Breast Cancer If you are interested in hearing my episode about the healing effects of swimming for me, listen here: Episode 48 Swimming for Self Love as a Breast Cancer Survivor Also, if you'd like to be the first to receive updates and exclusive content from the upcoming Breast Cancer Life newsletter, please email me at connect@breastcancerlife.org.
