- Kristin advises Audra to meditate on her past experiences, particularly the time in the hospital with her daughter, and draw from those experiences to authentically connect with her clients and followers.
- Audra realizes that during the traumatic time in the ICU, she was in survival mode, and her natural inclination with her ADHD diagnosis helped her function well, providing her with a new awareness.
Embrace the Transformation, Embrace the Power
- Some may feel judged in that situation, maybe even you felt judged. The adrenal drain and crash was real, so the recovery was also a journey of transition and discovery. It's the way your brain is wired to handle situations like that.
- You're in this extreme period of stress and then all of a sudden things are back to quote unquote normal. That's the essence of transformation, going through something and coming out a different person. You're able to function in ways that some who go to fight or flight aren't able to function, a very powerful skill.
- To be shamed on top of that is very hard for someone going through a traumatic situation. There may be others who can really identify with that. Take a deep breath, my dear, and then when you're ready, gently open your eyes. We did that for the specific purpose of you being able to really dig deep, to be able to then share on social media.
Embrace Small Transitions, Trigger Big Transformations
- Audra is not just adapting to her new normal and transition, she's transforming into her new normal.

Accept the Fact: Healing from Trauma
