UNEARTHED with Asia and Jennica, in partnership with SCSA Podcast Network is a raw and honest conversation between two survivors who have spent years healing with two unique perspectives.
In this episode:
This mother/daughter duo brings a depth of insight into the journey of healing from severe trauma. Asia entered her healing journey by working with a psychotherapist who utilized hypnotherapy to help her discover the childhood traumas behind a sudden onset of depression. Jennica came into her healing at the young age of 12, looking for solutions to eating disorders, body shame and depression, and discovered how to navigate life in her body...the very thing that held all her answers. Both women took on the challenges to discover what was at the root of their pain, committing fully to finding and healing themselves.
Listen as Asia and Jennica discuss years of unearthing personal traumas including childhood sex abuse, satanic rituals, mind control, medical human experimentation and cult abuse.
UNEARTHED is a forum to help survivors recognize their own strengths and thrive through their own courageous acts. It is here to address the deep and unknown aspects of childhood sex abuse that continues into adulthood. Its intention is to shed light on the cycles, thought processes and patterns common with survivors. These conversations are intended to inspire, encourage and validate victims and those who love and support them.
