Episode Highlights:

    • How trauma can make it hard to go after big dreams

    • How our big dreams can inspire healing

    • What is trauma?

    • Brain- and Body-based healing modalities

    • The role of feeling our feelings

    • The stories we tell ourselves and how to rewrite them

    • Neuroplasticity and the science of memory

In this episode, Analisa invites Marissa Ghavami, Iranian-American, queer artist, advocate and creator to the podcast. This is a rich and vulnerable discussion about Marissa’s experience healing from trauma, and how it has been fundamentally intertwined with their journey towards big, ambitious dreams.

Marissa and Analisa share their thoughts and experiences with “getting comfortable with the discomfort of this business,” and they engage with a wide range of questions:

How can folks healing from trauma engage with their feelings and body sensations safely–something we’re asked to do every day as actors? What’s the difference between brain-based and body-based healing modalities and practices? How does having these skills show up in our daily lives and careers?

It’s a beautiful conversation between two smart and soulful creatives—listen as they marry the ideas of trauma-informed emotional resiliency with the neuroscience behind memory and grief, and share how diving deep into these ideas is further enriched by their spiritual practices. Come back to this episode anytime you need a reminder that the stories we tell ourselves about our feelings can be rewritten!
