Summary
In Part 2 of our series with JJ Flizanes, we delve deeper into the transformative process of Core Wound Mapping. Building upon the foundation laid in Part 1, we embark on a vulnerable journey of self-discovery and healing.
Guided by JJ, I open up about my personal experiences and explore the core wounds that have shaped my life. Together, we navigate through layers of emotions and memories, uncovering patterns and triggers that have held me back.
The process of Core Wound Mapping involves peeling back the layers of past traumas and childhood experiences to identify the roots of our emotional struggles. With JJ's guidance, I confront these core wounds head-on, recognizing their impact on my thoughts, behaviors, and relationships.
Through this introspective journey, I gain valuable insights into my own psyche and begin to understand the underlying beliefs that have been limiting my growth. JJ's expertise in helping individuals transmute struggle into joy shines through as she offers compassionate support and practical advice.
As we unravel the complexities of my core wounds, I am reminded of the power of neuroplasticity and somatic healing practices. By rewiring our brains and releasing stored trauma from our bodies, we can break free from the cycle of functional freeze and step into our full potential.
Sharing this vulnerable experience with our listeners, I hope to inspire others to embark on their own journey of self-discovery and healing. By confronting our core wounds and embracing the process of rewiring our brains, we can transform our lives and create a future filled with joy, abundance, and fulfillment.

Have you heard about NAD+? It’s one of the most important molecules in the human body to age well. NAD+ helps promote cellular energy, maintain healthy DNA, detect nutrients efficiently, supports detoxification, and supports your cellular health. Simply put, keeping your NAD+ levels high is VITAL to helping the body feel youthful.
But did you know NAD+ levels plummet with age? By age 50, most people’s NAD+ levels are only HALF of what they were at age 20.
Luckily, science has discovered a way to boost your NAD+ levels up to 50%!†*
It’s called Qualia NAD+, a groundbreaking supplement from Neurohacker Collective. The reason so many health experts are partnering with Neurohacker and the reason I’m proud to have them sponsor this podcast is you’re simply not going to find more carefully researched, life-changing nutritional formulas, especially for aging well.

| 0:08.3 | Warning, side effects of this podcast may include increased health and vitality, |
| 0:11.4 | thoughts of living longer, developing a more positive outlook on life, |
| 0:13.9 | an increase in sexual activity, feelings of joy, cravings for kale and chemo, |
| 0:17.2 | and a spike in Tinder matches. |
| 0:18.7 | In rare cases, people have experienced a strong desire to put down the Ben and Jerry's, get off the couch, and take a walk outside. If you experience any of these symptoms, tell your Facebook friends immediately. |
| 0:29.5 | All right, welcome, Food Heels Nation. Thanks for joining me. I'm Allison Melody. I used to think that healing was linear and we could only go up from where we were, |
| 0:39.3 | but now I realize we can still have these deep valleys in our healing journeys. That can be |
| 0:45.5 | hard to crawl out of. And even though there are these things that we think we've dealt with, |
| 0:51.9 | sometimes there are still triggers. Sometimes they are still there, |
| 0:57.0 | deeply embedded in our unconscious, stored in our body, and still affecting our current reality, |
| 1:04.1 | even when we think we've done all of the work, quote unquote, the work. I've recently started |
| 1:10.5 | learning about and studying this phenomenon |
| 1:13.0 | called functional freeze. It's a trauma response where you can be a highly functioning, |
| 1:18.9 | high achieving person who still remains stuck in parts of their trauma and finds themselves |
| 1:25.0 | frozen when challenged to go to the next level of healing and |
| 1:30.5 | unable to rise out of that particular valley. And I realize that I have been in functional |
| 1:38.0 | freeze in many stages of my adult life. Maybe you have too. Here are some of the signs of functional freeze. See if you can |
| 1:46.8 | relate. You're exhausted, but you stay up late. You value sleep, but you can't fall asleep. You binge |
| 1:54.8 | TV shows or movies, but you can't really focus. You respond to messages that you have to, |
| 2:03.0 | maybe from coworkers, but not from friends. When friends text you to check on you and genuinely ask you how you are, you ignore them. |
| 2:10.5 | Not because you don't love them, but because you don't want them to know how you're really doing. |
