  You Are Enough: Healing Trauma, Breaking Survival Mode & Reclaiming Your Purpose | Dr. Mylira Cary

  Aug 9, 202658 minS2

  Send us Fan Mail What if the patterns affecting your relationships, confidence, parenting, faith, and sense of self didn’t begin with who you are today—but with what you learned to do to survive? In this powerful episode of Breaking Curses with Excellence, Christina Russell Strong sits down with Dr. Mylira Cary, PhD, LCSW, CCTP-II, CAIMHP, CEO/Founder of M. Green Enterprises LLC and The Metamorphosis Healing Experience, for an honest conversation about healing trauma, childhood wounds, survival mode, self-worth, emotional triggers, generational patterns, mental health, faith, and discovering who you are beneath what happened to you. Dr. Cary shares her own deeply personal journey through trauma, depression, suicidal thoughts, sexual assault, struggles with feeling “enough,” and the experiences that ultimately helped shape her calling to help others heal. Together, Christina and Dr. Cary explore what unresolved trauma can actually look like in everyday life—from people-pleasing, over-functioning and seeking validation to relationship conflict, isolation, defensiveness and repeatedly finding ourselves in the same painful patterns. They also unpack the difference between therapy and transformational coaching, how childhood experiences can follow us into adulthood, why so many people are surviving instead of truly thriving, and how becoming aware of our behaviors and emotional responses can help us uncover wounds that still need attention. One of the biggest reminders from this conversation: You are enough. Your trauma may be part of your story, but it does not have to control the rest of your story. If you've ever wondered: Why do I keep repeating the same patterns? Why am I always in survival mode? How do I heal childhood trauma? Why do I need so much validation? How do I stop allowing my past to affect my relationships? How do I rebuild my self-worth? How do I break generational cycles? This episode is for you.

  Finding Your Voice: From Silence to Purpose Through Music | Featuring Enaka Betech (NOC)

  Jul 26, 202638 minS2

  Send us Fan Mail In this inspiring episode of Breaking Curses with Excellence, Christina sits down with independent artist, mentor, and Boys & Girls Club manager Enaka Betech (NOC) to explore a journey of identity, healing, resilience, and purpose. After moving from Cameroon to the United States as a child, Enaka struggled to find his voice while balancing family expectations, cultural differences, and the pressure to measure up academically. Those experiences led to years of self-doubt and depression before he rediscovered his purpose through music. This conversation goes far beyond music. It's about learning to believe in yourself, embracing your unique story, and understanding that your greatest purpose often grows from your deepest pain. Whether you're a music lover, creative, parent, mentor, or someone searching for purpose, this episode offers encouragement to stop chasing other people's expectations and start living authentically. One of the most powerful moments of this conversation is our discussion about web usage—how intentionally using the web and the content we consume can shape our mindset, broaden our perspective, and influence the way we think, feel, and heal. The information, stories, and voices we choose to engage with can either keep us stuck or help us grow into who we're meant to become. In this episode, we discuss: Finding purpose through music Growing up between two cultures Overcoming depression and self-doubt Healing from childhood wounds Using creativity to inspire and uplift others ✨ Why authenticity is more powerful than popularity How changing what you consume—including your web usage—can transform your perspective and personal growth Connect with Enaka Betech (NOC) Music: https://youtube.com/channel/UCbUhqmVa7SH6KsFfQedfhUg?si=3qVhgFluThlowqPt Apple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/noc-beteck/1661647825 ▶️ YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCbUhqmVa7SH6KsFfQedfhUg?si=3qVhgFluThlowqPt Connect with Christina TheRusMix.com Follow Breaking Curses with Excellence for more conversations that help you break unhealthy cycles, build self-worth, and lead with purpose .
