Trauma Expert Reveals WHY You Keep Attra...

Tara Electra
About this episode

What if your triggers weren’t the problem... but the doorway?
In this episode, we unpack the layers of trauma that shape our reality: emotional wounds, parent dynamics, trust issues, physical pain, and more. Whether you think you’ve been through trauma or not, this conversation will open your eyes to how deeply our past shows up in our present — and how real healing begins.

Topics covered:
    • Emotional wounds we carry without realizing
    • Why “over-empathy” without boundaries becomes self-sacrifice
    • How unpredictable parents create anxiety and control issues
    • Why trust issues often trace back to your childhood, not your partner
    • Trauma patterns that repeat until you break them
    • The connection between trauma and physical symptoms (TMJ, pain, tension)
    • The first step to healing: self-awareness
    • How healing trauma shifts your entire reality
