[Content Warning]: Discussions of childhood sexual abuse, trauma responses, addiction, and intergenerational trauma

What happens when talk therapy takes you as far as it can go, and something still feels missing?

In this episode of Trauma Interrupted, Jan Broberg sits down with Christina Prokos, intuitive coach, shaman, and author of Embrace Your Shadows, a practical guide to inner child and shadow work. Christina has spent fifteen years helping survivors move from knowing their story to feeling relief in their bodies. She works where traditional therapy often plateaus, in the energetic, somatic, and spiritual dimensions of trauma healing.

Jan and Christina explore why shame sits at the center of almost every trauma response, how the body stores what the mind has tried to put away, and what it actually means to give your inner child what it needs. Christina shares her own history of childhood sexual abuse, family dysfunction, and the moment a healer showed up and named the wound she'd never been able to voice.

They also discuss soul retrieval, which is the shamanic process Christina uses with clients who have experienced deep soul loss through prolonged abuse and why healing in community, not isolation, is what moves the needle.

If you've done the work and still feel stuck, this conversation is for you.
