Healing Unfiltered by Erin Burns

Episode notes

It’s true—trauma changes us. It shapes how we see the world, how we relate to others, and how we see ourselves. But here’s the truth most people don’t talk about: healing means learning who you are beyond what hurt you.

In this episode, we’re diving into the hard but necessary truth that while trauma may have influenced your identity, it doesn't have to be who you are. This is a hot take with heart—a compassionate call-out for anyone who feels stuck in their pain, their diagnosis, or their survival mode self.

We’ll talk about the difference between honoring your past and being defined by it, and what it really means to reclaim your identity after trauma. If you’ve ever felt lost in your healing journey or afraid of who you might be without the pain—this one’s for you.
