Soreya James woke up at 4 am from New Zealand to have a conversation that Spirit completely redirected. Instead of diving into her childhood, we started where she is now—in her 50s, being called to stop, go deep within, and find acceptance of this season of life. A time to soften: the heart, the mind, the body.
What emerged was profound. Soreya, a retreat leader, teacher trainer, author, and trauma-informed healer with over 25 years of experience, reveals why the inner child is non-negotiable to healing—and what happens in our bodies and minds when we don’t reconcile that wounded part of ourselves. Unhealed trauma energy doesn’t disappear; it torments us, making us sick.
Then she shares the story that changed everything: standing nine months pregnant in front of her father at a memory care facility—the man who sexually assaulted her for years. Her body shook. She spoke her truth, every ounce of it. And through her words, his tears fell. There was understanding. Acknowledgement of the pain he caused.
She also confronted her other predator—the older brother of a childhood friend who raped her at 11, a secret kept until adulthood.
If you’re unable to confront your assailant, Soreya offers powerful suggestions for releasing trauma and reclaiming your power. From finding a trusted surrogate to journaling your truth—discover the tools that bridge the gap between silence and healing.
This episode is about the courage it takes to face what broke us, and why that confrontation is the bridge to reuniting with our inner child and truly, finally healing.
