Episode Highlights
Core Wounds
explains the process of reprogramming core wounds, emphasizing the importance of identifying and addressing these deep-seated beliefs. She shares a framework for transforming negative self-perceptions, such as replacing "I'm abandoned" with "I'll be connected," and highlights the effectiveness of consistent practice over 21 days 1. This method has significantly reduced her triggers and transformed her internal dialogue, leading to lasting peace and emotional stability 2.
We pull those ingredients together. Step one, find the core wound and wet the opposite. I'm abandoned. I'll be connected, I'll be betrayed. I can trust. I'm not good enough. I'm good enough.

Addiction Journey
Thais shares her personal journey of overcoming addiction, detailing the struggles and triumphs she faced along the way. She describes how reprogramming core wounds helped reduce the intensity and frequency of her triggers, ultimately leading to sustained sobriety 3. Her story underscores the importance of addressing root causes and finding passion and purpose in life as key components of recovery 4.
I went through a six and a half year inpatient rehab, outpatient rehab, did a couple things. AA meetings, NA meetings, had a big, big struggle after a knee surgery and started with percocets and Vicodin and went all the way to using oxy's for a period of time.

Inner Light
Healing trauma, according to Thais, reconnects individuals with their true selves, allowing their inner light to shine through. She discusses how removing emotional blocks and reprogramming negative beliefs can lead to a more joyful and present life 5. This process not only enhances personal well-being but also fosters deeper connections and a sense of purpose 6.
As we heal and repair those things at a root level, we get more in touch with that deeper aspect of self that I think we naturally are joyful and peaceful and more in touch with that, that version of us.
