In this episode of The Trauma Educator Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Deniz Ahmadinia, a clinical psychologist whose work bridges trauma, somatic and parts work, and intuitive energy healing. Drawing from both her professional expertise and personal healing journey, Deniz brings a perspective that moves beyond intellectual understanding and into the lived, embodied process of reconnecting with the self.
·      We speak about what happens when memories of abuse surface later in life
·      Why self-doubt is a necessary survival strategy that once protected us 
·      The complexity of rebuilding self-trust, not as a guarantee that we’ll always get it “right”, but as a capacity to stay with ourselves regardless of the outcome
·      The reality of dysfunctional family systems, including the experience of being the scapegoat, and the loneliness that comes with that role
·      The confusion of being raised by a parent whose public image did not match what happened at home
·      The role of anger as a way of taking our life-force energy back and restoring a sense of agency after trauma
·      And what it takes to stop abandoning ourselves, especially when that pattern was shaped in environments where disconnection was necessary for belonging

Description

The Trauma Educator Podcast is where nervous system, somatic education, and conversations on trauma meet culture and society. 
 
Through thought-proving interviews monologues and community Q&As, we explore how the nervous system is shaped by trauma and how family dynamics, cultural norms and collective patterns influence our health and relationships. Each episode invites you to connect your individual healing to the bigger picture of community and collective well-being. You’ll find valuable insights, accessible education, and meaningful conversations that challenge old conditioning and open space for reimagining life.
 
In essence, The Trauma Educator Podcast is about health and well-being, but it also extends far beyond into the cultural, relational, and systemic forces that shape them every day. Join us as we expand the conversation on trauma and healing, and discover how nervous system work can support both personal growth and cultural transformation.
