Clinical psychologist, trauma specialist, and author Adriana Popescu joins Julie Ryan for a powerful conversation about healing, addiction, trauma, and the surprising reasons personal transformation can feel so difficult. Drawing from her own journey through years of chronic illness and extensive work helping clients overcome addiction and trauma, Adriana reveals why many healing approaches fail to address the deeper roots of suffering. Together, Julie and Adriana explore self-judgment, shame, epigenetics, EFT tapping, somatic healing, energy psychology, and the powerful connection between emotional wounds and physical health. The conversation also ventures into the spiritual dimensions of healing, including intuition, energetic influences, past-life patterns, and why true transformation often begins when we stop trying to \"fix\" ourselves. If you've ever felt stuck, frustrated by your healing journey, or wondered why lasting change seems elusive, this episode offers hope, insight, and practical tools for moving forward.
