In today’s episode, I speak with massage therapist, coach, and survivor Cari Rickabaugh. Cari's story begins in a home filled with fear, emotional manipulation, and a secret she wouldn’t uncover for over three decades. We explore how trauma can shape our inner voice, the limits of traditional therapy, and how one intuitive call from a friend led her to a life-changing coach. Cari speaks candidly about her healing journey—from uncovering childhood abuse, to rebuilding her sense of self, to now coaching others with the same compassion and depth that saved her life.
Key Takeaways
- Childhood trauma runs deep.
- You can't heal what you don't remember, and it can shape your life unknowingly.
- Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all - healing through coaching, not talk therapy.
- Resilience is remembering—and surviving—what once felt unspeakable.
- Nature, cold plunges, and breathwork practice.
- Real support and community matters.
- Helping others can also be a tool for healing.
- Even buried pain can find a way out.
- Seeking help is a courageous step towards healing.
- It's possible to redefine one's identity beyond past experiences.
