Welcome back everyone to the Truth & Freedom Podcast, where awakening begins with asking the questions most people are afraid to ask. I’m your host, Dr. Dan Amzallag —and this is not just another podcast. This is a journey into awareness, courage, and truth

When we talk about trauma, we often talk about the memories—the moments we can describe, the events we can point to, the circumstances we can analyze. But the truth is that trauma is not just something that happens in your mind. Trauma is something that happens in yourbody. Long after the event ends, the nervous system continues to respond as if the danger is still present. And this is where the disconnect begins: your mindmay say, “It’s over,” but your body says, “I’m still not safe.”

Today, I want to explore PTSD, PTRS, and the profound truth stored in your nervous system—the part of trauma that cannot be talked away, the part that can only be released through real, embodied healing.

Every family writes a script—often without realizing it. A script about who you’re allowed to be, what role you’reexpected to play, how you should behave, what dreams are acceptable, what emotions are forbidden, and what responsibilities you carry even when they werenever yours. These scripts shape us long before we’re old enough to question them. They tell us, “This is who you are,” even if that identity has nothing to do with your truth.

Today, I want to explore those invisible obligations—the unwritten rules, the generational expectations, the roles we inherit without consent—and more importantly, how to recognize when you’re living someone else’s story instead of your own.

Family scripts often begin subtly. Maybe you were thepeacekeeper, always smoothing tension and swallowing your own needs to maintain harmony. Maybe you were the achiever, praised only when you excelled, conditioned to believe that love must be earned through performance.

There’s a moment in everyone’s life when they realize that the loudest enemy they will ever face doesn’t live outside of them—it lives in their own mind. It whispers doubts, amplifies fears, distorts reality, and makes you question your worth, your abilities, and your place in the world. It shows up as negative thinking, ongoing self-doubt, and what we’ve come to know as imposter syndrome. But here’s the truth most people never hear:just because the mind speaks doesn’t mean it speaks the truth.

Today, I want to explore what happens when your mind lies to you—why it lies, how those lies take root, and how you can reclaim your power from the inner critic that has held you hostage for far too long.

Negative thinking doesn’t begin in adulthood.It begins in the small, unnoticed moments where you were criticized instead of encouraged, dismissed instead of validated, compared instead of seen. It beginsin classrooms, in family dynamics, in early relationships, where your mistakes were magnified and your strengths were overlooked. Over time, those messages become internalized. They stop sounding like other people’s voices and start sounding like your own.
