182: How Somatic Healing Helps You Recover From Trauma With Britt Piper

Have you ever wondered why talk therapy alone sometimes isn’t enough to heal trauma? In this episode, Britt Piper joins me to dive into the transformative power of somatic healing and why starting with the body can be the key to lasting recovery.

Britt shares what a body-first approach really looks like, why our nervous system holds onto trauma, and how healing happens through experience—not just information. We discuss the role of body memory, the importance of understanding attachment wounds, and how to gently move through common stuck states like fight, flight, freeze, fawn, and functional freeze.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Why somatic healing is essential for trauma recovery
How your nervous system responds to trauma and stress
The difference between body memory and explicit memory
The five stuck states and how to navigate them
Why healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself but creating capacity for regulation
Practical steps to support your healing journey

If you're tired of quick fixes and ready to understand what your body truly needs, this conversation is for you.
