Welcome back to Minding Her Own Business! This week, I'm joined by Ali Kates, a somatic experience practitioner and trauma recovery coach who's helped countless ambitious women overcome burnout through nervous system regulation.

Ali's discusses her journey through trauma and healing, the importance of understanding how trauma affects the body, and the significance of self-awareness in personal growth. The conversation also touches on navigating boundaries, cultural differences in communication, and the impact of family dynamics on mental health. Ali shares insights on recognizing trauma and creating safety within oneself to facilitate healing.

In this episode:

• Healing from trauma requires understanding the nervous system.
• Cultural differences affect communication styles and perceptions of trauma.
• Rest and recovery are vital after experiencing trauma.
• Emotional resilience can be developed through somatic practices.
• The journey of healing is often nonlinear and requires patience.
• Entrepreneurs must navigate their own trauma to succeed.

If this episode resonates with you, share it with the friend who's always diving into self-help books, the colleague navigating difficult boundaries at work, or the loved one who's been quietly carrying the weight of past experiences. Ali's compassionate approach to trauma recovery and practical insights on creating bodily safety could be the missing piece for someone struggling to understand why they react the way they do.
