This week on the podcast, author and popular speaker, Toni Collier joins us to talk about healing from trauma, EMDR, dumping spirituality, and “Christian Buddhism,” and why you can’t heal yourself by yourself. After a lifetime of childhood trauma, navigating a toxic marriage and divorce, an unhealthy church, becoming a single parent, and feeling betrayed, Toni felt shame-filled and used. Because of her brokenness, she believed she was unworthy and unqualified to have a life of meaning and purpose. Many of us have felt the same thing if we’re honest. So, in today’s conversation, we’ll unpack the truth that leads to freedom.
