So many people come into this work carrying the same fear of no one understanding them or their story being ‘too much’. And yet, over and over again, something incredible happens… 👇

People who spent years feeling misunderstood, unseen, or unsupported find themselves in a room with others who finally get it.
Because they carry the same emotional wounds, the same protective patterns, the same longing to feel connected and safe.

For so many trauma survivors, the hardest part isn’t the work itself; it’s trusting that there’s a place where you won’t have to explain or justify your pain.

A place where your nervous system can soften enough to let healing actually land.

A place where you can stop doing this alone.

That’s why group work is so powerful 🤝

Not because it’s easy, but because you’re not doing it in isolation anymore.

You’re held. You’re witnessed. You’re understood in a way that individual therapy sometimes can’t reach 🫶

If you’ve been longing for that kind of depth… if you want to feel part of something steady, supportive, and real… The Inner Child Immersion: An RRP Retreat might be exactly the step you’ve been looking for.

A couple of years ago, after more than three years of working together online, I finally met my mentor, Patrick Teahan, and my RRP group in person 🙌

We’d spent years doing our own childhood trauma work together through a screen.

Crying together, grieving together, laughing together, learning how to be in relationship in ways none of us grew up with. So we knew each other deeply long before we ever shared a room.

And still… meeting in person was something else entirely 🤯

There’s a kind of connection that happens in the room that you just can’t replicate online.

The nervous systems, the eye contact, the presence, the small moments between the “work”.

Being witnessed in person shifts something.

That first meeting confirmed everything I believe about this work 👇

Childhood trauma is relational, and healing is too. Group work is powerful online, but when you bring people together in person, something opens. People feel braver. Softer. More receptive. More connected.

Which is why I’m so grateful to be offering The Inner Child Immersion: An RRP Retreat here in Spain in April 2026!

It’s for people who want to go deeper, feel supported in real time, and experience what it’s like to be held in a room full of others doing the same inner child and relational work ❤️

You’re not an overthinker by nature. You’re someone who had to carry too much alone ❤️

And the very patterns you judge yourself for now are the same ones that helped you survive a childhood where you deserved more connection, more presence, and more understanding than you ever received.

You don’t need to fight these parts of yourself.

You just need spaces where you no longer have to think your way into safety, because safety is already there 🫶

If part of you is wanting to go deeper in a supported, relational space, Early Bird places for The Inner Child Immersion:
An RRP Retreat are open through the end of 2025. Learn more at https://www.wholeheartedhealingbc.com/inner-child-immersion-retreat

And if a part of you still flinches when you read that… I get it.

So many of us grew up learning to minimize, to explain things away, to pretend it wasn’t that bad.

We learned to blame ourselves because that was safer than admitting the people we depended on couldn’t meet us with the love or care we needed.

But here’s the truth you were never given:

What happened to you wasn’t your fault.
The ways you coped weren’t failures.
And the patterns you still struggle with today aren’t evidence that you’re broken. They’re evidence that you survived!

If you’re carrying shame or confusion about your past, I want you to know this 👇

❤️ There’s nothing wrong with you.
❤️ You adapted.
❤️ You protected yourself the only way you knew how.

And your inner child is still waiting for someone to look at them with softness instead of judgment 🫶

If this lands somewhere tender, please know that you’re not alone.

I’m welcoming Early Bird applications for The Inner Child Immersion:

Here are 5 of the most common ways your early experiences might be showing up in your adult relationships 👉

These patterns are adaptations formed in relationships that didn’t give you the safety, co-regulation, or emotional presence you deserved.

And because they were formed relationally, they begin to heal relationally too, in safe groups, in supportive connection, and in spaces where your story is met with honesty and warmth 🫶

This work is slow, gentle, and deeply human. And you’re allowed to take every step at the pace your inner child needs ❤️

If you’re tired of understanding your patterns but still feeling stuck in them, I’d love for you to join me at The Inner Child Immersion: An RRP Retreat in Spain in Spring!

Next Spring, I’m running a brand new RRP retreat in Southern Spain called The Inner Child Immersion… a full week dedicated to reconnecting with the parts of you that had to grow up too fast.

This retreat exists because so many of us try to heal alone.

We read the books, listen to the podcasts, go to therapy, learn the concepts… and yet something still feels frozen or unreachable inside.

The Relationship Recovery Process changes that by giving us the one thing we never had enough of growing up: safe, structured, relational connection.

For seven days, you’ll be supported by two RRP facilitators, an embodiment specialist, and a small community of fellow trauma survivors (maximum 12 people).

You’ll have your own room and bathroom, nourishing Andalusian meals, daily embodiment and creative expression, inner child dialoguing, small and large group RRP work, and space… real, nourishing space… to rest 🧘‍♀️

There will be movement, laughter, tenderness, grief work, two beautiful excursions, and time to sit by the pool or wander the olive groves while your nervous system finally exhales.

If you’re someone who’s been doing the inner work but still can’t quite reach certain feelings on your own… this is why the retreat exists.

To help you go deeper, safely.

To let your inner child be supported.

To give you an immersive week where healing doesn’t happen in isolation.

If you want the full details (and special early bird pricing) comment RETREAT and I’ll send everything straight to your DMs ❤️

I can’t wait to welcome you to Spain!! 🫶

If your early experience of “belonging” came with fear, criticism, or silence, it makes sense that connection feels complicated now!

Safety isn’t the absence of discomfort; it’s the presence of attunement. The right group gives you both: people who can hold space for your truth, and the courage to start being real again 🫶

If that’s the kind of healing you’re ready for, there are spaces opening soon, including my next retreat. You can find everything at https://www.wholeheartedhealingbc.com/groups-and-workshops 🌿

You don’t need a dramatic story for your pain to be valid! ❤️

Trauma is what happens when you’re left alone with something too big to hold. And healing starts when you stop minimizing what you went through and begin offering yourself what you needed back then… attunement, gentleness, and a relationship that feels safe enough to stay.

If this speaks to you, I hold spaces (both online and in person here in Spain) for people who are ready to explore this work gently, in connection with others.

…and that’s because groups give us something individual therapy simply can’t 👉 relationship in real time.

We get to see our patterns play out, feel our defenses rise, and then have the chance to do something different: to stay, to repair, to be met.

That’s where the nervous system starts to learn that closeness doesn’t have to mean danger.

That conflict doesn’t have to mean disconnection.

That we can be fully ourselves and still belong.

If you grew up in a family where belonging didn’t feel safe, the idea of group therapy can sound like the last thing you’d ever want to do, right?! 😱

But that’s exactly why it’s so powerful! ❤️

Group work gives you a space to practise what you never got to learn safely… how to be seen without shame, how to have conflict without collapse, how to stay connected even when things get messy.
