Description

đŸ”„ Episode Summary:

When your healing becomes light for others, how do you make sure it doesn’t dim your own?

In this powerful guest episode, Todd Tononi sits down with Brooke Deanne — trauma-informed healer, RTT practitioner, spiritual mentor, and bestselling author of Shattered, Broken & Beautiful — to explore what it means to hold space for others without betraying yourself.

Together, they dive into spiritual bypassing, codependent caregiving, religious trauma, boundaries, and the journey of coming home to your true identity after being emotionally shattered.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who feels like they’re the “strong one,” the “empath,” the “emotional anchor” for others
 but who secretly needs healing of their own.


đŸ‘€ About the Guest:

Brooke Deanne is known as the Life Goddess Coach — a trauma-informed healer and rapid transformational therapist who specializes in helping women break free from religious conditioning, emotional abuse, and chronic people-pleasing.

Her book, Shattered, Broken & Beautiful: Losing My Religion and Reclaiming My Power, is a bold and deeply vulnerable look at how she broke the silence of religious trauma and found sovereignty, sacred self-expression, and peace on the other side.


📖 Featured Themes:

  • How to hold space without absorbing other people’s pain
  • Rebuilding trust in your intuition after spiritual abuse
  • Setting energetic boundaries without guilt
  • The sacred power of walking away from identities that kept you safe but small
  • Why survival is not your final destination — sovereignty is

“You’re allowed to stop being the one who holds it all together for everyone else.” – Brooke Deanne

✍ Reflection Prompts:

  1. Am I confusing spiritual strength with self-sacrifice?
  2. Where in my life am I constantly ‘holding space’ without being held?
  3. What boundaries have I avoided setting because I fear being unloved or misunderstood?
  4. Where is God inviting me to reclaim my voice or my power?
  5. What part of my healing journey have I yet to fully own?
