You’re Not Broken, You’re Carrying Unhealed Trauma | Malisa Hepner

What if the problem isn’t you, but the pain you’ve never had the space to process?

In episode 29 of The Influence Exchange, I sit down with trauma therapist and podcast host Malisa Hepner for a powerful and deeply human conversation about trauma, overthinking, shame, and healing.

Because the truth is, a lot of people walking around today don’t feel broken, they feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, and unsure why.

And most of the time, it’s not because something is wrong with them. It’s because they’re carrying experiences they never fully processed.

In This Episode, We Talk About:

Why trauma isn’t just what happened, it’s what wasn’t processed

How overthinking is often a response to deeper emotional pain

The role of shame and how it quietly shapes your life

Why talking and expressing emotions is more powerful than you think

How disconnection from yourself shows up in everyday life

What it actually looks like to begin healing

Navigating grief, loss, and rebuilding after unimaginable experiences
