Healing Journeys: Jacquelyn Weis on Holistic Recovery After Trauma

There is hope at the end and we just need to keep going and moving to get out of it and don't stay stagnant, because there's so much more to you than what you're facing in your life right now.
How do you heal when the pain feels insurmountable? In this deeply moving episode of 'Finding OK', Jacquelyn Weis, a member of the Northwestern Band Shoshone Nation and a holistic healer, shares her transformative journey of healing after enduring sexual assault and abuse. Jacquelyn's story is one of resilience, drawing strength from community support, cultural traditions, and holistic healing practices that saved her life.
She offers a candid look into the generational trauma affecting Indigenous communities and sheds light on the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Womxn, Girls, and Two Spirit movement (MMIWG2S). Her insights provide valuable guidance on how non-native people can contribute to supporting survivors. With her book, 'Healing the Survivors - 8 Steps to Whole-Self Healing', Jacquelyn provides a comprehensive guide for others on their path to recovery.
She emphasizes the importance of asking yourself daily what you need to heal, trusting your body's wisdom, and building a supportive community. Tune in to hear her powerful message and even a beautiful song in her native language, designed to bring strength and healing to survivors. This episode is a testament to the human spirit's capacity for healing and finding purpose after trauma.
