Healing the Inner Child: Trauma, Self-Love, and Rewriting Your Story

Healing the Inner Child: Trauma, Self-Love, and Rewriting Your Story

In this deeply moving conversation, therapist and host Malisa Hepner sits down with Hilary Momberger Powers—former child actress who voiced Sally in the Charlie Brown cartoons, now a recovery warrior, mentor, and author—to explore the lasting impact of trauma on personal development and healing. Together, they unpack how early wounds shape identity, the importance of inner child work, and what it truly means to break free from victimhood. Hilary shares her journey of reclaiming her power through empathy, self-reflection, and community support, emphasizing that real empowerment comes from within. This episode highlights the transformative power of self-love, acceptance, and consciously choosing to rewrite your story.

Spend 10 minutes journaling a letter to your inner child, acknowledging one past wound that still shapes your reactions today. Then write a second letter from your adult self offering compassion, validation, and a new narrative rooted in worthiness and self-trust.
