In this deeply moving episode of Coached Soul, Dr. Steve Hudgins, licensed professional counselor, and Kenya Evelyn, therapeutic life coach, sit down with Stacey Nye to explore a powerful journey from high performance to profound healing.

Raised in an Olympic-level, high-achievement environment where “there were no limits,” Stacey appeared mentally and physically resilient.

• Living in survival mode with anxiety and PTSD
• Raising her son as a single parent while navigating fear and overwhelm
• How secure attachment, awareness, and healing tools shaped her recovery
• The turning point that led her to the “Fixed Code” and a new path forward
