Bio:

“Women who have experienced trauma are often blocked from their greatest gifts and superpowers. Kaity Rose Holsapple believes that through healing trauma, women also begin a vital initiation into more Soul Power and aliveness than they’ve ever known.

She knows this firsthand, through her own experience healing from severe PTSD after sexual trauma. This experience brought her to her knees, and she experienced some of the darkest years of her life feeling cut off from her own Soul.

In the years following, she sought support that would allow her to move beyond her victimhood to fully reclaim her body AND spirit in the deepest of ways… she committed to an impressive depth of study, therapy, and self work in the arts of yoga, mindfulness, energy medicine, psychology, and somatic therapies to gain insight on how to heal.

But it was through the wisdom and intuition of her own body that she created her own body of trauma-healing work known as Somatic Yoga Therapy – a blend of body, heart, mind, and soul-work for alchemizing trauma into Soul Power. She currently trains others as Somatic Yoga Therapy practitioners and works 1×1 with survivors of sexual, physical, and relational trauma who are ready to reclaim their power and lives.

What she has found in her work is that SO many people are walking around with residual trauma, feeling stuck, and holding themselves back without even realizing it!”

I’m back! Living the #nevergiveup philosophy

I’m back! Living the #nevergiveup philosophy

Hello all of you beautiful trauma-warriors and trauma-advocates!

As you are aware, as fans of the show, the last interview I posted was in December 2021. I had to leave our house quickly due to a health issue (of which I am not yet at liberty to discuss as our legal team has advised against it). However, I have now moved my recording equipment to a friend’s home and am happy to be back up and functioning as host, healer, writer, and trauma-warrior. I promise to share the details as soon as I am able to do so. As a trauma survivor, I am not a fan of keeping quiet about the truth. I have learned that sharing our truths is healing and liberating. And I so very much look forward to doing so with this story. As I believe it will help others heal and find resolution, as well.

I will be editing previously recorded episodes and sharing those at the normally slotted Fridays at 7:00 PM EST.

Thank you for your patience, prayers, and loving support as I travel this part of my healing journey!

In peace & gratitude,

Teri
