In Part 2 of this powerful conversation, trauma healing facilitator and childhood abuse survivor Lisa Tickel returns to share deeper insights into what it means to break free from survival mode and truly care for yourself. Together, Jess and Lisa explore how victim mindset can keep survivors stuck — and what it looks like to recognize the signs in your body, reframe your relationship with food, and begin setting boundaries without guilt. Lisa opens up about her emotional eating, negative self-talk, and the moment she began showing up for herself with love instead of shame. This episode is a powerful reminder that healing isn’t about perfection — it’s about awareness, self-compassion, and learning how to feel safe in your body again.
