Healing Religious Trauma with Christina Carlson
THC 131 - Healing Religious Trauma with Christina Carlson
On this episode of Trauma Hiders Club my guest is Christina Carlson, a Self-Relationship Coach, who embarked on a transformative journey seven years ago. Raised in a strict Evangelical Christian environment, her upbringing left no room for self-acceptance. After spending years believing she was broken, Christina yearned for something more. She began questioning the beliefs that had kept her quiet and compliant, delving into the depths of uncertainty. In this process, she discovered her knack for holding space for the undecided, a skill that naturally led her to coaching.
This Week on Trauma Hiders Club
On this episode you’ll hear Christina share her journey of healing and self-discovery through coaching and reconnecting with her body. She discusses the challenges she faced in letting go of certain beliefs, particularly the concept of ‘hell’, stemming from her religious upbringing. Christina emphasizes the importance of creating a safe space for exploring faith and self-care. The conversation also touches on the damaging effects of religious dogma within communities and the struggle to navigate personal paths separate from societal expectations. Christina offers practical tips for practicing self-connection, such as meditation, ritual, and physical movement. Christina highlights the importance of patience and autonomy in relationships. She also endorses laughter and fun!
"Your children are seen as arrows in your quiver to shoot out forward for the lord. It's a huge disappointment for parents to have their children walk away from something they gave everything to keep to."
