You can escape the chaos, build a new life, and still feel like your trauma is living in your body.

Jeannine Rashidi is a trauma healing practitioner, Ayurvedic doctor, and author of Abundance Beyond Trauma. She also happens to have one of the most jaw-dropping, powerful healing stories I’ve ever heard.

In this episode, Jeannine shares how she escaped an abusive, addiction-fueled home at 15, became a mother while living unhoused, and eventually broke generational cycles — not just for herself, but for her daughters.

Key takeaways from this episode:

– You can repeat your trauma story even after you’ve escaped it. Jeannine found herself in a relationship that mirrored the chaos she grew up in. It wasn’t until her daughter began showing signs of trauma that she realized the cycle was continuing — and that she had the power to stop it.

– Talk therapy didn’t touch the places her trauma lived. It was through somatic work, massage therapy, and Ayurvedic medicine that Jeannine began to access the pain, memories, and survival patterns stored in her body.

– Parenting while triggered is its own kind of trauma. Jeannine opens up about how her daughters’ milestones activated emotional flashbacks — and how healing her inner child became essential to showing up for her kids.

– The body gives us information before the brain can explain it. Whether it’s flinching during touch or chronic pain that won’t go away, Jeannine shares how the body holds clues to unresolved trauma — and how learning to decode them can transform the healing process.

– Healing doesn’t require retelling your entire story. Jeannine’s EDHIR process meets clients where they are, helping them explore what’s present now — and trusting that this will lead them back to what needs to be integrated, without re-traumatization.
