84 - Abundance Beyond Trauma w/ Jeannine Rashidi
Jeannine Rashidi is the author of Abundance Beyond Trauma: Discovering Your Courage for Change and Commitment to Yourself. She is also a health & wellness practitioner focused on alleviating the core of physical, digestive, emotional, and mental tension. Having lived the first 25 years of her life with severe emotional, mental, sexual, and physical abuse, she began a journey of healing and changing the dysfunctional cycles. This was happening whilst building her own practice Goodbye Tension, treating clients who also had trauma or adverse life experiences, questioning whether she was the appropriate practitioner for them since she was still deep into her healing journey. It became clear that her experience, along with her honesty, vulnerability, and authenticity with her clients, were the perfect ingredients for trust and guidance in their healing journey. Thereby, she followed this path, trusting that she could help whoever came or could find a practitioner to help them. Now, 18 years later, she brings her personal and professional experience to you.⬇️DAMN THE JOIN SHITSHOW - ADULT CHILD HEALING COMMUNITY⬇️https://theshitshow.mn.co4 weekly zoom support groups (Sun 3: 30 pm EST, Mon 8:30 pm EST, Tues 1 pm EST, & Thurs 8:30 pm EST)Support community at your fingertips with discussion boards and chatSIGN UP FOR SHITSHOW NATION - ADULT CHILD NEWSLETTER👩HELP A GIRL & CAT EAT🐱 www.buymeacoffee.com/adultchild🛍️SHITSHOW MERCH🛍️www.adultchildpodcast.com/shop🎙️NEW TO THE POD🎙️How I learned I was an Adult Child - The Tale of 2 BriansTHE LAUNDRY LIST - Common Characteristics of an Adult ChildFollow Andrea on socialwww.instagram.com/adultchildpodwww.tiktok.com/@adultchildpodhttps://www.youtube.com/@adultchildpodMid-roll music source https://soundcloud.com/dave_wave/a-friend-like-me-electro-swing-remix (I do not own the rights of song - for entertainment purposes only)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------🎙️ EPISODE SPONSOR 🎙️Integrative Life Center is designed to help heal individuals struggling with mental health, addiction, eating disorders, trauma, sex, love and intimacy disorders, and and other life situations that have gotten in the way of living a satisfying and meaningful life.
