The Alchemy of Healing: Turning Pain into Purpose and Self-Connection

The Alchemy of Healing: Turning Pain into Purpose and Self-Connection

Therapist and host, Malisa Hepner, joins Ashana Kaiulani, reclamation coach, author, podcast host & speaker, as she shares her powerful story of transformation—from a painful childhood and toxic relationships to the depths of cult life and the courage it took to reclaim her freedom. Together, they explore the long arc of healing, the unspoken wounds of family dynamics, and the strength that comes from vulnerability and connection. Ashana reflects on how her own podcast became a vessel for truth, support, and collective healing—reminding us that none of us are meant to heal alone.

Healing is not a destination but a journey of remembering who we are beneath the pain. Through vulnerability, community, and compassion, we find our way back to wholeness—and the courage to share our stories becomes the bridge that heals us all.
