Why Healing Yourself Helps Your Whole Family with Melissa Armstrong

I welcomed Melissa Armstrong, whose journey from childhood trauma to holistic healing is both heartbreaking and inspiring. Listening to Melissa recount her experiences—facing family adversity, surviving a school shooting, and enduring the devastating loss of her brother—reminded me how resilient we can be. As she described how the compassion of ICU nurses inspired her to become one herself and later transition into holistic health, I was struck by her courage to keep healing and help others do the same. We talked about the realities of “mom life,” the hidden effects of trauma, and how symptoms like brain fog and anxiety often go ignored. Melissa shared practical, accessible steps like mindful breathing and EFT tapping, which I believe will truly empower our listeners. Her reminder that healing is a choice and that we’re never alone will stay with me. I’m honored to share her story and these transformative tools.
