You know that moment when you realize you’ve been silencing your own truth for years? When your efforts to be nice or helpful weren’t kindness but instead survival? There’s a trauma response many of us never learn to name… and even fewer learn to heal. It’s not fight. It’s not flight. It’s not freeze. It’s fawning.

Join us as Dr. Christine Cocchiola—clinician, coach, professor, survivor, and leading expert on coercive control—uncovers the truth about coercive control, the invisible thread that weaves through all forms of abuse, and when children are involved, its impact can last generations.

What does it take to break free from your past and rebuild a life on your own terms? At just 26, Jes Chapel is a rising voice at Condé Nast Traveler—but her real story runs much deeper. In this raw and revealing conversation, Jes shares her journey through childhood trauma, the loss of her father, and growing up in unstable, unsafe environments.

What does true healing from trauma really look like, and how do we reclaim our power in the process? Maggie LaRocca, Executive Director of Exhale to Inhale, joins us for a deeply moving conversation about trauma, healing, and empowerment.
