EXPERT POV: Dissolving Emotional + Inner Child Trauma with Jen Peters
Jen Peters has been through things that would break most people. She didn't break. She wrote a book about it.
In this episode, Behk & LAH sit down with Jen — author of Coming Home: The Path to Healing Your Inner Child — to talk about the life that led to her memoir. An alcoholic, abusive father. A gang rape in her teenage years. A toxic, codependent marriage that made complete sense given everything that came before it. And the long, nonlinear, deeply personal journey of healing that turned a survivor into a healer.
Jen now helps others do what she had to figure out largely on her own — reconnect with the parts of themselves that got left behind in the wreckage of trauma. This episode is full of her hard-won wisdom on codependency, people-pleasing, inner child work, and what thriving actually looks like after the worst has already happened.
This one is heavy, hopeful, and genuinely transformative. Don't miss it.
