In this powerful episode of The Hustle & Heal Podcast, Adam Wilson sits down with trauma-informed coach Thalea Pretorius to unpack the layers of childhood trauma  from “big T” life-altering events to the small, everyday experiences that leave a lasting imprint on your mind, body, and spirit.

You’ll hear how unprocessed pain can quietly shape your relationships, mental health, and even your connection with God, and why it often lingers for years without you realizing it. Thalea shares her personal healing journey, the impact of father wounds, and the transformative role of forgiveness in breaking free from the past.

Listeners will walk away with practical tools for emotional healing, strategies to feel safe in your body, and daily habits that build resilience and inner peace. Whether you’ve struggled with abandonment issues, suppressed anger, or feeling spiritually disconnected, this conversation offers both hope and actionable steps.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • The difference between “big T” trauma and “everyday” trauma
  • How childhood experiences create adult triggers and patterns
  • The connection between trauma and spiritual healing
  • Simple daily practices for emotional regulation and self-awareness
  • Why forgiveness is more for you than for them

It’s time to stop carrying what was never yours to hold and step into the freedom that’s been waiting for you.
