Rhonda Macken's Journey: Creating Selves to Survive Trauma

There is light at the end of a tunnel and everybody contains their own shining, and that shining needs to shine, and it can, with help and with love.
Imagine a childhood so traumatic that your mind creates multiple personalities to cope. That's the reality Rhonda Macken faced. Now in her 70s, Rhonda shares her incredible journey on this episode of 'All In The Mind'. She reveals how she crafted a complex web of personalities to shield herself from her harsh reality. Over years of intense psychotherapy, she managed to integrate these fragmented parts of herself, emerging stronger and more whole.
This episode delves into the power of human resilience and creativity in the face of unimaginable adversity. Rhonda's story is a beacon of hope, showing that healing is possible even after the darkest times. She discusses the crucial roles of love, music therapy, and nature in her recovery, offering insights that can inspire anyone facing their own battles. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that underscores the strength of the human spirit.
