In this raw and honest episode, we explore what it really takes to reclaim your voice, your confidence, and your sense of self after leaving a relationship that no longer serves you.

Ivana Care, a trauma-informed coach and founder of Holding Heart Space, shares her personal story of escaping an abusive relationship, living in a women’s refuge, and beginning the deep inner work of healing. Through nervous system regulation, root cause therapy, and community-based women's circles, Ivana now helps other women move through fear, shame, and uncertainty to find clarity and confidence on the other side of separation.

We talk about how trauma can subtly shape our behaviors, why people-pleasing and freezing are often misunderstood survival responses, and the power of being seen and supported in safe community.

If you’re in the thick of it, still navigating the fallout, or slowly rebuilding—this conversation is for you.

🎧 In this episode, we talk about:

• How trauma lives in the body (and what it means to be trauma-informed)

• Understanding people-pleasing, fawning, and freezing as protective responses

• The moment Ivana realized she had to leave—and what came next

• Finding strength through women's circles and shared storytelling

• The role of nervous system regulation in parenting and healing

• Why true healing starts with self-awareness, not just mindset shifts
  

About Ivana:

Ivana is a Life and Transformation Coach. Her journey into coaching began with her own personal transformation. Like many of the women she found herself facing an impossible choice in a relationship that no longer served her. Leaving meant stepping into the unknown and facing adversity, but it also meant opening doors to new possibilities. Today, Ivana is helping other women finding themselves after separation. She combines her personal experience with powerful tools like guided meditations, energy work, and trauma healing techniques.

In this conversation, I reconnect with Sarah Sticklin to explore the witch wound - a generational trauma rooted in the persecution of women and wisdom-keepers throughout history - and how it still affects us today.

We dive deep into the fear that often accompanies spiritual gifts, the intuitive path, and what it really means to reclaim your inner knowing in a world that has taught us to suppress it. Sarah also shares how her own practice has evolved to include animal communication and how tuning into animals and nature is available to all of us.

This episode is for the woman who has ever felt afraid to be too much, too magical, too connected. It's for the intuitives, the gentle rebels, and the seekers who know there’s more beneath the surface.

What we talk about:

• The witch wound and how it still plays out in modern times

• Why reclaiming the word “witch” is an act of empowerment

• What practicing modern witchcraft actually looks like

• Sarah’s journey into animal communication and how it began with a horse named Shane

• How you can tune into your own intuitive gifts

• The importance of reconnecting with nature, intention, and the energy all around us
