Instead, she was invited into a deep process of healing from chronic stress and overworking, which awakened a new passion to support women with trauma-informed coaching.This journey eventually led her to join Freedom Movement on staff as a coach, Storywork practitioner, and director of marketing and strategy. She carries a kind and comfortable presence that disarms people and invites them safety into honesty and transformation. She lives in the Tennessee countryside just south of Nashville with her husband, Matt, and their three children, Micaiah, Amara, and Ezra.https://www.torimaehein.com_____________________________________Karrie's Instagram: @karriescottgarciaKarrie’s Website: karriegarcia.comFreedom Movement Instagram: @freedom_movementFreedom Movement Website: wearefm.orgSign up for Freedom Movement Trainings: https://www.wearefm.org/trainingsFind Story Work Retreat info & sign-ups:https://www.karriegarcia.com/work-with-karriePurchase Karrie's book Free & Fully Alive!https://www.amazon.com/dp/0310366445?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_A6200T1AKD7FS2PZ8VA1Book Karrie for Speaking Engagements:https://www.karriegarcia.com/book-karrie Music by Tanya Godsey
