Many survivors lose trust in themselves after assault. Here’s why, and how to start coming back.

Freezing, self blame, feeling triggered years later, the pull of the news. None of it means something is wrong with you. It’s how the mind and body respond to trauma.

Healing is coming back home to yourself, feeling safe in your body, and listening to the inner voice that was there all along.

i’ve spent the last few weeks speaking with fellow survivors, and these were the things that stood out the most.

Grateful to share this with Judy Hawley, a Registered Clinical Social Worker. Together we are here to support you.

If you need immediate assistance or know someone in crisis, please contact RAINN 800-656-4673

Survivors, you’re allowed to look away.

As a three time survivor, I felt it too. Healing doesn’t mean you never get triggered. It means you have the capacity to feel it, and move through it with more ease.

If the news coverage has you feeling activated right now, this is for you.

Watching the coverage over and over keeps your nervous system in fight or flight.

It can feel comforting at first to have the support of knowing there are others that have experienced what you have, but it keeps you stuck instead of allowing you to heal.

If you need support, there’s a link in my bio.
I’m offering free calls to survivors right now.

I’m an intuitive guide, not a trauma therapist, but I’m here, and you don’t have to go through this alone.

If you need immediate assistance, call RAINN National sexual assault hotline at 800-656-4673. It’s free, confidential and open 24 hours.

Divine guidance often comes through other people.

We’ve all had that lightbulb moment while talking to a stranger at the grocery store.

That was no coincidence. That person was placed there at the exact time to give you the exact message that you needed.

Too often, we are so preoccupied, we don’t register the message we just received.

Slow down and don’t miss the messages.
They’re all around you.

Self abandonment doesn’t always look dramatic.

Sometimes it looks like doing what everyone else thinks you “should do”, over and over, until you forget what you actually want.

I know because I did it for years.

Here’s where to start: the next time you hear “you should “ in your head, stop and ask yourself, whose voice is that? Because it’s probably not yours.

Your intuition already knows. You just have to get quiet enough to hear it.

Building self trust can take time, but every time you choose yourself, it gets easier.

You can’t think your way into clarity.

I know, because I tried it for years. Making lists, replaying conversations, asking five people what they would do. And all it gave me was more noise..

Clarity doesn’t come from the mind. The mind is where the noise lives. Old beliefs, other people’s opinions, the “shoulds,” the fear dressed up as logic.
Thinking harder only stirs that up.

Clarity comes from underneath all of it. From your body. From the quiet voice that already knows.

So how do you get there? You make space.

Start with your breath. A few slow breaths, tells your nervous system It’s safe to stop scanning for danger.
You can’t hear your intuition when your body is in fight or flight

Then notice what’s running through your head, and ask: whose voice is this? Is that belief actually mine?

Pay attention to how it feels in your body. Your truth feels calm and steady, even when it’s scary.

The noise feels tight, heavy, anxious. Your body knows the difference before your mind does.

Now you can set down what isn’t yours. You don’t have to fight it or fix it. Just recognize it isn’t yours to carry.

That’s simplicity. Less noise. More truth.

What’s one thing you’ve been trying to think your way through? Drop it in the comments. Let’s find space together.

Don’t wait for joy, create it. Gratitude will follow.

We too often wait for the external world to produce the results already living within us.

Joy isn’t something that comes to you, it’s something you create.

For me it means moving my body and feeling alive.

Paint, write, help a neighbor, dance, sing, bake or do whatever it is that lights that spark inside.

We’re all here to create and joy is simply the result of your soul living within us pure intention.

Choose one thing you know brings you joy, and spend 30 minutes engaging in it.

When you live with intention, you can consciously create the joy you seek.

Periodic clearing rituals are a great way to keep you in a state of growth instead of stagnation.

Today is the new moon in Virgo, a natural time for new beginnings and intention settings, but Virgo energy loves order and systems.

Before you plant something new, you have to clear the space for it to arrive.

Find a space in your physical environment you can clear. A drawer. A surface space. A closet.

As you clear it, use this mantra:
“ I eliminate anything that is lingering in my life, I eliminate anything holding me back from creating the abundant life that I know is waiting for me.”

Notice what comes up in your body as you move through it, your thoughts, your emotions.

Let them be there without judgment.
Let them rise so you can release them.

Shifting your physical space, shifts your mind and your heart too, and makes room for whatever you’re about to call in.

When something gets ripped away from you, a relationship, a job, anything, it’s not random.

That’s the universe saying enough. You kept making the same choice, so it made the choice for you.

The question was never “why did this happen?”
It happened because it wasn’t meant for you.

Now you have a choice: you can stay stuck in the pattern, or make a different choice, one that’s in alignment with your higher path.

You never get what you want, you always get what you need.

Your intuition doesn’t live in your mind. It lives in your heart.

That spinning, “should I or shouldn’t I” loop? That’s your ego.

The quiet nudge underneath it, the slight knowing you almost talked yourself out of? That’s your intuition .

Most people never hear it because their ego is louder.

get quiet. Turn off the noise. Stop outsourcing what your soul already knows.

And if you’re not ready to trust yourself yet, ask for guidance.

Then take the action anyway, without needing to know how it ends. You were never supposed to know the outcome.

Your intuition is simply the compass giving you direction on what action to take. And it’s always correct.
