23. From Religious Trauma to Self-Trust: Rebuilding Spirituality | Michela Giordano Castro

23. From Religious Trauma to Self-Trust: Rebuilding Spirituality | Michela Giordano Castro

In this episode, I sit down with Michela Giordano Castro, a trauma-informed therapist and spiritual coach, to talk about the journey of healing religious trauma and learning to trust yourself again.

We explore: - Michela’s personal journey from a pastor’s daughter to a spiritual coach. - How religious trauma impacts self-trust and personal decision-making. - Why so many women feel guilt and fear when stepping away from religion. - The role of community, boundaries, and identity in the healing process. - How to navigate relationships with religious family members while staying true to yourself. - The power of spirituality as a tool for healing, not control.

If you’ve ever struggled with doubt, self-trust, or fear of leaving behind old beliefs, this episode offers validation, guidance, and a path forward.
