Episode Type: Inspirational People Interview

Do you ever feel like you're in a personal "riptide" just trying to survive?

Sometimes, we've been in "survival mode" for so long, we don't even realize it. My friend Leslie Haynes lived this reality, pushing through layers of profound trauma.

She looked like she was thriving on the outside, but inside, her body was screaming, "Get out."

At 31, she was bedridden, and all of it was tied to unprocessed trauma.

But Leslie's story is not just about pain; it's about a counterintuitive path to healing. She discovered that what is broken in relationships has to be restored in relationships. She found a way to stop hiding and start living fully—not by being tougher but by becoming curious.

In our conversation, Leslie revealed a few things that might just flip your perspective on its head:

Why "any connection is better than no connection" is a lie that can keep you trapped.
How unprocessed trauma can literally cause physical paralysis.
Why "choosing your hard" is one key to finally moving forward.

Are you ready to find out what your body has been trying to tell you all along?

Watch my full inspirational people interview with Leslie on the Share Life podcast to hear her journey from a shell of a person to being fully alive.

P.S. You don’t have to fight your battle alone. The right people will choose to stay.
