Angel’s story brings a personal perspective to accountability, breaking generational cycles, and becoming the person she wants to be for herself and her family.

EP255: Finding Safety and Self-Trust with Chris Dyer
2026/09/23
FINDING SAFETY AFTER TRAUMA SUMMIT
Chris will also be joining me as one of the speakers for the Finding Safety After Trauma Summit, happening October 22–23, 2026, from 10:00 AM–5:00 PM ET each day. I’m looking forward to having Chris be part of this special two-day event and sharing more conversations around safety, healing, and moving forward after trauma. Join us: https://hub.htdholisticservices.com/finding-safety-summit
In this episode, I’m joined by Chris Dyer, Strategic Advisor and speaker, for a conversation about finding safety, trusting yourself, and learning to listen to what you need.
Chris works with highly sensitive and empathic leaders who often carry a lot of responsibility. From the outside, they may seem like they have everything together, while on the inside they may feel stretched thin, unsupported, or unsure of what comes next.
We talk about some of the patterns that can make it difficult to trust yourself, especially when you’ve spent a long time taking care of others or trying to meet expectations. Chris shares her perspective on slowing down, paying attention to what your mind and body are telling you, and making choices that feel right for you.
We also talk about self-awareness, the nervous system, compassionate leadership, and what it can look like to move forward without losing yourself along the way.
I hope this conversation reminds you that you don’t have to have everything figured out. Rebuilding trust in yourself can start with simply listening to yourself again.

EP250: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with Lizbeth De Sa
2026/08/20
In this episode of the Heal Thrive Dream Podcast, I’m joined by Lizbeth De Sa for a conversation about healing trauma, understanding the different parts of ourselves, and what it can look like to feel whole again.
Lizbeth is an Internal Family Systems practitioner, Certified Level 3, educator, writer, laughter yoga leader, and conflict mediator. She works with people who are healing from deep trauma, including experiences that often go back to childhood.
During our conversation, Lizbeth shares more about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and the idea of the “multiple mind.” We talk about how the different parts of us can carry pain, fear, and old experiences, and how getting to know those parts can help us better understand ourselves and our healing.
A little more about Lizbeth:
Lizbeth is originally from England, is of Indian descent, and graduated from the University of Oxford. She has lived in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, California, and now South Carolina.
She is also a mom of two teenagers. Outside of her work, she enjoys meditation, playing the piano, speaking French, and occasionally doing improv comedy.
I hope you’ll join us for this meaningful conversation about trauma, IFS, and finding our way back to wholeness.

Karly Stein is an award-winning artist, entrepreneur, international speaker, advocate, and trauma survivor who has transformed adversity into purpose. Through creativity, authentic storytelling, and community advocacy, she inspires others to embrace resilience, self-acceptance, and the belief that even life’s greatest challenges can become sources of strength.
After navigating years of serious medical challenges and chronic health conditions, Karly began rebuilding her life with a renewed focus on healing, confidence, and service to others. Her experiences also led her to become an advocate for individuals living with hidden disabilities and neurodivergence.
As an entrepreneur and creative, Karly has developed several purpose-driven ventures, including Senior Living Markets, which creates opportunities for artists, crafters, and makers to connect with senior communities. She is also developing Here for Dopamine, an initiative focused on helping service providers better understand and support neurodivergent clients.
At the heart of Karly’s work is a simple philosophy: our experiences do not have to define our limitations. By turning pain into purpose and using her experiences to help others feel seen and supported, she continues to demonstrate what it means to move forward with resilience, confidence, and authenticity.

EP247: Healing Trauma Through Creativity with Devorah Hake Brinckerhoff
2026/08/04
Devorah Hake Brinckerhoff is one of the speakers at the Finding Confidence After Trauma Summit, a two-day virtual event happening August 13–14, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET. Register for the summit: https://hub.htdholisticservices.com/confidencesummit
Devorah Hake Brinckerhoff is a professional artist and transformational guide who developed Soul Portraits, a healing methodology that combines artistic expression with spiritual and emotional work to help people transform trauma into empowerment.
A gallery-represented artist with more than 30 years of experience, Devorah discovered that creativity helped her regulate her nervous system, release limiting beliefs, and understand trauma that had been stored in her body. Her artwork revealed emotions and memories that she could not access through words or conscious thought alone.
This experience inspired the Soul Portraits process. Using journals, photographs, letters, mementos, and mixed-media materials, participants symbolically deconstruct their past and reconstruct their experiences into meaningful artwork. The process helps make invisible emotions visible while creating a safe space for healing and self-discovery.
From her home studio in Oregon, Devorah coaches small groups, creates commissioned Soul Portraits, and facilitates virtual and in-person workshops. Her work helps people release old stories, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and rediscover their authentic selves. She is passionate about conversations exploring creativity, spirituality, trauma healing, and personal transformation

2026/07/28
Dr. Melissa Durfey is one of the sponsors and speakers at the Finding Confidence After Trauma Summit, a two-day virtual event happening August 13–14, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM ET. Register for the summit: https://hub.htdholisticservices.com/confidencesummit
Dr. Melissa Durfey DACM, LE, CIEC aka The Showgirl Doctor is a Doctor of East Asian Medicine, international speaker, educator, and creator of the STARS Method, a signature framework that blends body liberation, sensual self-care, and holistic wellness to help women reclaim their radiance from the inside out.
With over two decades experience in healthcare, the beauty industry, education, and the performing arts, Dr. Melissa brings a refreshingly unique perspective to holistic wellness. As a plus-size burlesque performer, she has experienced firsthand the transformative power of embracing visibility, pleasure, and confidence in a world that often encourages women to take up less space.
Dr. Melissa believes that true wellness isn't about shrinking your body, chasing perfection, or adding more ""should"" to your to-do list. True wellness about creating safety within your nervous system, honoring your body's wisdom, and cultivating rituals that nourish your whole self. Through the lens of East Asian Medicine, she helps folks understand that their confidence, vitality, beauty, and joy are not earned, they're remembered.
Her engaging and interactive keynotes and workshops combine ancient wisdom, modern science, storytelling, humor, practical tools, and just a touch of showgirl sparkle to create experiences that are both educational and deeply empowering. Audiences leave feeling more connected to their bodies, inspired to redefine self-care on their own terms, and equipped with simple practices they can immediately integrate into everyday life.
Dr. Melissa believes everybody deserves to feel radiant and taken care of. Her continuing mission is simple: To celebrate beauty and wellness outside of western standards and help folks unapologetically take up space, and shine.
