## Resource

Hey Heal Squad! After such a beautiful weekend at the Heal Squad Day of Reset, we had to bring back this incredibly powerful conversation. Tammy Valicenti joined us in person at Day of Reset, and if you were moved by her there… just wait! In this throwback episode, Maria sits down with Tammy to unpack EMDR therapy, the trauma-healing modality that has helped so many people process PTSD, anxiety, panic, and deeply stored emotional pain in a totally different way than traditional talk therapy. Tammy breaks down what EMDR actually is (because yes, it can sound a little intimidating at first), how it helps the brain reprocess trauma, and why so many people see life-changing shifts in just a handful of sessions. They also get into how trauma doesn’t just live in our memories, it lives in the body… showing up in relationships, anxiety, hypervigilance, fear, and patterns we may not even realize are connected. Such an eye-opening conversation, especially if you’ve heard people talk about EMDR but never fully understood what it is or if it could help you!
