Why Can't I Heal? Rachel Leroy Breaks Down Trauma and Recovery
“The kind of abuse that's overlooked and that can be the most damaging is the kind where you're emotionally neglected, where your feelings are invalidated, where you're not taught how to handle traumatic and emotional situations, where something else is always more important than you, where you're not seen, where you're invisible.”

In this episode of 'Christian Emotional Recovery', Rachel Leroy, a seasoned college professor and trauma survivor, tackles this daunting question head-on. Rachel dives deep into the nature of trauma, explaining that it's not about what's wrong with you but rather about how trauma gets stuck in your body and brain.
