Healing Childhood Trauma: Simone Boyer on Recovery, Resilience & Finding Purpose

Healing Childhood Trauma: Simone Boyer on Recovery, Resilience & Finding Purpose

Trigger warning


Can childhood trauma shape the person we become? Can healing rewrite the story we’ve spent a lifetime believing? In this powerful episode of AuDHD and Then Some, Ellie sits down with Simone Boyer, author of Chasing Light and founder of The Light Within Collective, for an honest conversation about trauma, addiction, survival, recovery, and finding hope after profound loss.


Simone shares her remarkable journey from childhood trauma, addiction, and near-death experiences to discovering purpose, self-worth, and healing. Together, Ellie and Simone explore how trauma creates survival responses such as hypervigilance, people-pleasing, codependency, and perfectionism—and why understanding the language of survival is the first step towards lasting change.


In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • ​How childhood trauma influences adult relationships and behaviour.
  • ​Why survival mechanisms aren’t personality flaws.
  • ​The power of inner child work and reparenting.
  • ​Breaking free from toxic family dynamics.
  • ​Finding compassion for yourself after trauma.
  • ​Hope, resilience, recovery, and rebuilding a meaningful life.


Whether you’re healing from childhood trauma, navigating addiction recovery, living with neurodivergence, or supporting someone you love, this conversation offers practical insights, validation, and a powerful reminder that your past does not have to define your future.


If you’ve ever wondered whether healing is possible, this episode is for you. Your story isn’t over yet—and neither is your light.
