Episode 131 | The Power of Embracing Vulnerability, featuring Gia Hernandez

Giovanna "Gia" Hernandez is the podcast host of Healing The Roots & an entrepreneur with a unique perspective shaped by her journey as both a trauma survivor and self-healer. She cultivates connections through love and empathy, using her voice to shed light on healing the inner child and navigating past traumas.
Through somatic movements and exercises, she intuitively guides others on their healing journeys, sharing insights with unwavering transparency and empathy.
This week on the show, Gia discusses the importance of healing from childhood trauma and embracing vulnerability. She bravely shares her experiences growing up in a chaotic & abusive household, and how she has started on a healing journey later on in adulthood.
We talk about the need for self-awareness, making small changes, and prioritizing your own healing while nurturing children and maintaining a household. Gia also talks about her new podcast, Healing the Roots, and the power of sharing one's story to empower others.
I've said it before and I'll say it again... there is so much power and healing when we embrace our vulnerability & share our stories. Trauma and abuse thrives in silence. How we can begin to take back our power? By simply talking about what we went through and letting go of the shame we experienced by holding onto those deep, dark secrets.
I hope by listening to Gia's impactful story this week, you too can embrace your vulnerability and share your story, in whatever capacity feels the best for you. You have no idea how your own story can inspire and empower others to do the same.
