EP. 46: The Identities We Adapted to Defend Against Shame
December 7, 2023
This week’s guest is Nathan Serrato (they/he). Nathan is a Trauma Informed Yoga and Breathwork Instructor, and PCC Certified Life coach. Nathan helps queer folks overcome and heal from shame and religious trauma. In this conversation, Nathan and I chatted about so many aspects under the greater umbrella of queer healing, including:
the various identities and roles our younger selves learned to take on to maintain value in response to internalized shame.
the different ways internalized shame can show up in our unconscious patterns of behavior and ways of being
how we have come to internalize beliefs about success
how healing is a combination of both intentional healing work and simply living our lives,
the potential trickiness of over-identifying with our traumas.
sobriety and substance use within the queer community
and more!
I so loved getting time with Nathan, and am excited to invite you into the conversation.
