How I've Overcome Trauma To Find Peace E...

Lewis Howes
About this episode

Today’s episode is a little bit different. Recently I had the pleasure of being on Dr. Caroline Leaf’s podcast Cleaning Up The Mental Mess. We’ve had Dr. Leaf on the show a few times this year and I really value her expertise as a Neuroscientist. Make sure to check out my two previous interviews with her if you haven’t yet. I really enjoyed our conversation and wanted to share the episode on my show because I think it’ll help those of you who are holding onto traumas and going through struggles.

In this episode we discuss why we need to face the past to move forward and how I opened up about being sexually abused, the importance of connecting with our inner child, what happens in the brain when we deconstruct & reconstruct trauma, the importance of therapy and the different ways it can help you, and so much more!
