Have you ever felt held back by beliefs you can't seem to shake off? This episode features the insightful Stephanie Fu, a licensed clinical mental health counselor, who takes us on a journey through the labyrinth of trauma and self-limiting beliefs. Stephanie, with a wealth of experience working with both children and adults, offers her unique perspective on trauma-focused therapy. We delve into the depths of the subconscious mind of a child and explore the power of EMDR in healing from trauma.

The conversation takes an introspective turn as we unpack the formation of limiting beliefs and their profound influence on our lives. Drawing parallels with a block of ice, we bring to light the ingrained nature of these beliefs and the critical role of self-awareness and compassion in processing them. We open up about our personal struggles, revealing the resilience that comes from understanding and overcoming our limitations.

As we navigate the waters of mental health, we underscore the significance of self-validation and empathy in our daily interactions. We reflect on the importance of tuning into our emotions and learning to validate our feelings. We also highlight the commendable work of the nonprofit organization, Sola Amari, and their commitment to supporting children and families wrestling with mental health issues. Stephanie's personal experiences, her coping strategies, and her perspective on the healing process offer valuable insights and advice to anyone grappling with trauma or mental health concerns. Listen in for a conversation that could ignite your journey towards self-understanding and healing.
