Healing Childhood Trauma with Andrea Leeb | Why Emotional Numbness Happens
Many women shut down emotionally because of childhood trauma-and don't realize it until adulthood. In this conversation Andrea Leeb explains why emotional numbness happens and how to reconnect safely.
Host Myrna Young engages with Andrea Leeb to explore the haunting, yet inspiring story captured in Andrea's memoir, "Such a Pretty Picture." Andrea's experiences as she endured unthinkable abuse at the hands of her father, the psychological impact it had on her mother, and her long journey to healing and self-discovery. Andrea opens up about the complexities of familial abuse, ensuing emotional battles, and the critical importance of confronting one's past for true healing.
The conversation is an eye-opener to the realities of childhood sexual abuse and the various ways survivors cope with their trauma. Andrea sheds light on her personal struggle with shame, societal judgments, and the arduous process of reclaiming her power. Every aspect of her narrative underscores the resilience of the human spirit and the profound transformation that can occur when victims of abuse find their voice, connect with supportive communities, and share their stories. Andrea's experience is a testament to the possibility of finding joy and purpose beyond one's past and inspires a broader conversation about prevention and recovery from sexual abuse.
