Healing at Last

Everyone tells you to trust the process. 

Almost no one shows you what it is.

I’m Shauna Quigley, a psychotherapist, trauma educator and author of Healing at Last. I spent years inside the territory of trauma: the terror, the nothingness, the shame, and the strategies I built to outrun them. When I finally stopped running and went towards the pain, it gave me a way through. That way through had an order to it, and the order became a map.

This podcast walks that map with you. It follows the five sections of the book: On Trauma, On Surviving, On Preparing to Heal, On Healing, and Becoming. Each section pairs a solo episode with a conversation with a guest who knows that part of the territory from the inside.

This isn’t about managing your pain better or thinking your way out of it. It’s about the part that usually goes untold: the space between pain and healing, and what it takes to be free. Not free of what happened, but free of how it still moves through you.

Whether you’ve read the book or are just beginning, this is healing from the inside.
