Your Nervous System Remembers What Your Mind Forgets: Clearing Stuck Energy From Trauma
A single moment can split your life into before and after, and sometimes the shock isn’t just what happened today, it’s what your body has been holding for decades. We sit down with Leanne Sheargold, to unpack how repressed childhood trauma can hide in the nervous system and show up later as nausea, panic, brain fog, extreme tiredness, and sudden dissociation. Leanne shares her path through a stroke at 28, motherhood under pressure, and then the terrifying experience of buried memories surfacing in midlife after conflict and escalating control at home. We talk candidly about what dissociation can look like in real life, why sleep can become impossible, and how “I can’t explain it” is often a trauma response, not a failure. Leanne also explains the reality of seeking help: the challenge of finding the right therapist, what EMDR therapy was like when it went deep, and why safety and consistency matter more than willpower. If you’ve ever felt like talk therapy alone keeps opening the wound without fully clearing it, this conversation gives you language and options. Then we move into Leanne’s work with energetic healing and quantum healing, including how she approaches trauma as layers in the body, how she avoids putting labels on clients, and what a distance healing session can look like over Zoom. We also explore patterns that repeat through relationships and family lines, plus a powerful story of chronic fatigue improving after steady, layered work. If this resonates, subscribe for more honest conversations about trauma recovery, somatic healing, EMDR, and holistic wellness.
