Relational Trauma Reset Thrive with Jen Burns
Intimate, safe, and incredibly supportive and compassionate space for me to talk about and reflect on difficult things. (Fall 2021 Participant)
No one is unloveable. No one is incapable of belonging and connection. However many have experienced family dynamics of emotional neglect or invasive control.
Unprocessed, these early experiences are often the real reason people feel trapped in unsatisfying relationship cycles, or at a loss for the closeness and connection they desire.
If this is you, the way you experience relating makes perfect sense. The climate of mistrust and misunderstanding is not a sign of anything wrong with you. These dynamics go unhealed in part because our culture gaslights adults. We hear, “You should be able to just move on. The past doesn’t define you—stop giving your power away.”
The truth is, relational trauma is more than a story. It’s a systemic reality in a society that gives little space to heal. Generations of it live in our bodies and we are not alone in dealing with it.
In this group, you are supported to develop the tools of nervous system regulation and the self-trust you need to relate more openly and closely with others once again. To connect without busting boundaries, draining your energy, or masking your truth.
Here's what recent participants are saying...
I wasn't sure what to expect when I decided to join a Thrive Circle as support groups have never been something I was drawn to, so I came in with low expectations. The sense of community, shared experiences, connection to others and the educational component was collectively so helpful. I got so much more from this group than I ever imagined I would. It brought me a sense of peace, clarity and understanding that was invaluable...and will shape much of how I show up to myself and the world going forward. (Fall 2021 Participant)
It was unbelievably helpful to hear other women experiencing the same things; there is something so transformative about knowing you're not alone. The educational components of the group also helped me feel more informed and also like there was a reason why I feel the way I do. (Fall 2021 Participant)
Galia's Relational Trauma Thrive Circle was incredibly helpful in offering a safe space to discuss with and learn from others. Our Circle quickly bonded over honesty and shared experiences, and it was helpful to understand that, while generational trauma is common, it doesn't have to be normal. Jen provided excellent insights, learning resources and compassionate guidance to our Circle - and helped us begin to see what new patterns and behaviors we could begin to create for ourselves in the future. It may sound cliche, but if the Circle resonates with you and you're wondering if it's for you, the answer is yes... lean into what feels right, and take the first step in shifting your relationships moving forward.
