How I Overcame Baby Loss & Other Serious Traumas Using 7 Steps: An Interview with Soul Alignment Coach, Hyacinth J Myers

Mind Vox

Hyacinth J Myers is a Soul Alignment Coach, Life Strategist and Author, with 35 years of experience within community work, mental health and holistic therapies.

She currently works with women to help them overcome serious trauma.

Hyacinth has three children, one of which is neurodivergent and one sadly died as a baby.

During this episode she talks about how she overcame the loss of her baby, a childhood witnessing domestic violence, a sexual assault and other challenges, using 7 specific steps she created herself.

Hyacinth believes we’re not our story, we’re not broken and we’re not victims. Instead, we are soul conscious creators of our future.

This episode covers:

· The traumas and challenges Hyacinth experienced as a child, including domestic violence, growing up without her father and escaping to a refuge with her mother as a teenager.

· How meeting her birth father as an adult was the catalyst of deep change within her.

· Being sexually assaulted and then overcoming her fear of men by working with abusers in prison and seeing the souls behind the crimes.

· The challenges she faced as a solo parent and the awakening she had during a lone trip to Egypt at a time where she felt stuck in life.

· How Hyacinth overcame giving birth to premature twins, then losing one twin three weeks later and having to parent alone through grief.

· We talk about Baby Loss Awareness Week which happened during this recording, and Hyacinth offers advice and tools that helped her in the first stages of her baby loss.

· The tools she used to get through severe trauma, how she came to form her EMPOWER 7 Step Method, and what the method consists of.

· The creative outlets Hyacinth has used during the 7-step process, including journaling, photography and meditation.
