Healing from trauma isn't linear, and it doesn't have to be perfect. In this episode, Dr. Niesha talks about honoring where you are, releasing self-judgment, and recognizing that even the smallest steps forward are signs of real healing. Trauma often teaches us to survive, not to be gentle with ourselves. This episode explores what it means to heal without pressure, to choose progress over perfection, and to allow growth to happen at its own pace—one compassionate step at a time. Healing doesn't come from getting it "right." It comes from continuing, even when it's hard
