Unburdening Trauma Energies: Lean Into the Lessons Without Shame
Episode S12E12: Show Notes
What would change if you were able to reframe misaligned actions as opportunities to learn? In this episode, I explore the final big idea about CPTSD recovery that I want to share. I also answer a user-submitted question and wrap up Season 12 of the podcast. This one, in particular, is really powerful because it is so connected to all the most important aspects of healing. We are speaking about unburdening Trauma Energies by leaning into the lessons without shame. Through understanding what shame is through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), we discover how to alchemize and neutralize Trauma Energies in order to release them. I share how this work results in a release of everything that is not true to our identity, explaining the possibility of releasing Shadow Survival Codes that might be masquerading as personality. When we start to release shame around lessons, we are more able to access a deeper intuition. Join me as I unpack the process of embracing lessons and letting go of shame as a path to more personal power and alignment with our self-essence. Thanks for listening!

“It’s not that we are becoming a different human, instead we are accessing who we were meant to be without all the trauma and conditioning. It’s not a becoming process, it’s a restoring process.” — Tanner Wallace [11:41]
“Without awareness, without evolution, without transformation, there are no lessons.” — Tanner Wallace [13:13]

“My truest truth is [that] I am a very, very, practical guide.” — Tanner Wallace [0:15:07]
“In CPTSD medicine, one of the things that is a deep value of ours is we never release trauma energies without alchemizing them first because we don’t want to put trauma energies into The Collective that somebody else could absorb.” — Tanner Wallace [0:33:55]

Welcome to this very emotional invitation to become a student and provider of CPTSD Medicine, as I guide you through the ninth concept of our CPTSD Medicine Protocol: Bridge, don’t outsource. But before I get into all that, I want to take a moment to thank you all for being a part of this podcast that means so much to me and to let you all know that I am finally unwilling to hold all this on my own. So, please join our Students of the Medicine Community (and sign up for the pay-what-you-can podcast fundraiser) to see how you can join me in becoming an integral member of the healing community. Okay, now that my tears have dried and been wiped away, let’s dive into today’s fundamental concept of bridging your healing rather than outsourcing it. In today’s conversation, I define “bridging” and “outsourcing” and compare their differences before exploring the role of allies in the healing of complex trauma. I also explain why bridging is the best route to follow with a closer examination of the allies that we can bridge to in our missions of recovery: Divine Archetypal Residences, Energy Centers, Self-Energetic Frequencies, and Gene Keys. Thank you for sharing this space with me, I love you.
Key Points From This Episode:
Why CPTSD Medicine matters and a call to join our Students of the Medicine Community.
An emotional exploration of why this podcast is so important to me.
Wrapping up our previous episode’s conversation on Full Permission.
Today is all about CPTSD Medicine Protocol concept number nine: Bridge, don’t outsource.
The role of Allies in the healing of complex trauma.
Understanding the differences between bridging and outsourcing.
Why bridging is the best route to follow for healing.
Studying the Allies that we can bridge to in our missions of recovery.

Quotes:
“Everything you need to heal is already inside of you.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [19:57]
“I tune into the distress, not the forward-presenting manifestation of that distress.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [22:56]
“[Bridging] creates independence; creates co-creation; avoids codependency; [and] avoids power dynamics and overpower and hierarchy. It’s such a critical, foundational concept, both for our personal healing but then also for the health of the CPTSD Medicine mission.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [27:31]
“When we have a bridge to intentionally amplify specific frequencies of Self Energy, we’ve helped ourselves [to] really develop the potency of Healing Power required to be a CycleBreaker.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [35:44]
Longer Quotes:
“We need a community. I’ve held a lot of this on my own for a long time and that’s all part of the process but I’m reaching a point where I’m no longer willing to hold this all on my own. – I hope you feel my love and my sincerity in my words and in what I’m trying to communicate in this very heart-centered, grounded place.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [11:37]

Looking back on our healing journey, we recognize how many of our decisions were made in survival mode. As we rebuild our lives on stable ground and embody our true selves, we may be surprised by the things we choose to let go of and what we carry forward with us in unexpected ways. CPTSD recovery is not merely a developmental process but a profound learning experience that requires movement and progress toward mastery rather than a finite accomplishment. In today’s episode, we continue our exploration of the big ideas of CPSTD Recovery with idea number eight: full permission. Tuning in, you’ll discover why granting full permission is essential for navigating the unburdening sequence, how embodying truth resonance can enhance your recovery, and the critical role of breathwork and vocalization in this journey. I also pose reflective questions to help you explore the importance of full permission in your recovery and everyday life while identifying blocks and barriers to expressing your truths, Parts, Energies, and Entities. Don't miss this opportunity to strengthen your healing containers, identify and clear blocks to full permission, and embrace new perspectives to advance your CPTSD recovery and live a more embodied and truthful life.
Key Points From This Episode:
Teachings I have carried forward from my training as an educator and researcher.
Why the big ideas of CPTSD Recovery are important for building a shared fount of knowledge.
Reviewing the big ideas of CPTSD Recovery that we’ve covered in the podcast so far.
Why today’s idea, full permission, is such an important part of the unburdening sequence.
What it means to embody truth resonance as a goal of CPTSD Recovery.
Distinguishing between protected, sacred, and safe realms and those that are wounded.
The important role of breathwork and permission for amplifying SelfEnergy and unburdening.
Insight into the significance of full permission in CPTSD recovery and day-to-day life.
How to know if you need to “clean up” full permission in your life and recovery.
Determining the strength, potency, and trustworthiness of your healing containers.
Ways to identify the blocks to full permission in your healing containers.
A powerful closing blessing to take you through the upcoming week.
Quotes:
“You cannot make it through unburdening every Part, Energy, and Entity without mastering the milestone of full permission.” — Tanner Wallace [09:41]
“In the CycleBreaking frequency, we want to show up grounded, radiating Self Energy. In our healing containers, we want to understand what the blocks and barriers are to full expression of the truths, Parts, Energies, and Entities.” — Tanner Wallace [15:50]
“Once things can be vocalized, Parts, Energies, or Entities can be expressed, there’s permission to channel Parts in safe, structured – healing containers, you [start] to move and soften blocks. What needs to be spoken out loud can be witnessed.” — Tanner Wallace [19:05]
“What are the emotions and energies that constrict or constrain full permission in healing containers? Can I get curious about this? What does this show me and all me about [the next things I need to] to explore in my CPTSD recovery?” — Tanner Wallace [27:19]

If you’re listening to this podcast, I believe you are here to contribute something very important to this transitional period of human evolution. This episode focuses on training grounds, initiations, and the frequency of CycleBreaking. We consider how our ingrained way of relating to hardship pairs with collective pessimism to create negative bias, and how this can impact the healing process. Differentiating between unresolved and untreated CPTSD, we delve into what it might look like to unwind the shame spiral that training grounds and initiations can trigger in us. What would change if we approached a training ground as an opportunity to deepen into our identity and how we want to show up? This episode explores interdependence and how we can take ownership of our own healing, eradicate shame, and reframe the stories that Protective Parts have told about the difficult experiences in our past. Don’t miss this important piece of the puzzle. Tune in today.
Key Points From This Episode:
The important work we are called to do as we recover from CPTSD.
A reminder of Season 11 which focuses on partnership.
How Season 12 is addressing the big concepts of CPTSD recovery.
An invitation to join the Students of the Medicine peer support group.
This episode’s big idea: training grounds and initiations.
How our ingrained way of relating to hardship integrates with collective pessimism.
Differentiating between unresolved and untreated CPTSD.
Unwinding the shame spiral during training grounds and initiations.

Considering how you would show up differently after these challenging events in the relational field.
Understanding the importance of your self-leadership.
Weekly challenge: share your story.
An exercise to remind yourself why you are here.
Quotes:
“One of the key hallmarks of complex trauma is this inheritance of not only hurt, but fear.” — Tanner Wallace [12:48]
“I heal all wounds. I don’t give my power over to time and wait. I have reclaimed my sovereignty, my leadership, my value.” — Tanner Wallace [23:11]
“All of us are exquisite, important, and matter. We are not the same without each other.” — Tanner Wallace [24:07]
“Everything happens in a relational context.” — Tanner Wallace [32:18]

We are now fully immersed in the CPTSD Medicine Protocol since beginning our exploration of it in episode one of season 12. Today, in the seventh episode of the season, I bring you big idea number six: old evidence is likely bad evidence. Now, CPTSD recovery, in essence, is equivalent to personal development, and a major hindrance to personal growth is the shame we attach to ourselves. The Conviction of the CycleBreaker is the first step to ridding ourselves of shame as it opens the gateway to Eternal Directional Calling. From there, we learn perspective in Present Directional Calling, understand how old evidence manifests in Past Directional Calling, how we keep stories alive in Liminal Directional Calling, and the peace of Future Directional Calling. I believe that full completion can only be achieved with a combination of both spirituality and science, but I’d love to hear your thoughts as well, so please, reach out whenever you’re ready. I love you.
Key Points From This Episode:
How CPTSD recovery is akin to personal development.
Introducing the sixth big idea: old evidence is likely bad evidence.
The role of shame in hindering recovery.
How the Conviction of the CycleBreaker leads to the gateway of Eternal Directional Calling.
Gaining the perspective of Present Directional Calling.
What I learned from REVEAL, my very first healing container.
How old evidence manifests in the present as revealed by Past Directional Calling.
Understanding completion; where the spiritual meets the scientific.
Liminal Directional Calling: the in-between spaces and the ways that we keep stories alive.
Future Directional Calling; the new evidence – the other side of CPTSD.
Quotes:
“CPTSD recovery is simply personal development.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [05:01]
“Post-CPTSD recovery, it is a whole other world of what you can accomplish and what is possible and what you feel in your body. I’m saying these things from the other side, and it’s beyond what I could’ve imagined.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [06:38]
“Shame is the same substance for all humans, but how it codes, and corrupts, influences, replicates, disrupts – it’s so unique to the human.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [13:20]
“It’s not that no one got any sense of who you might be underneath all the trauma and conditioning; it’s just, it was so distorted and off in some way. That’s the old stuff.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [22:31]
“We have to be better readers and interpreters of the evidence as it is in this moment.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [25:47]

Today on the CPTSD Medicine Podcast, I am breaking down the fourth big idea of CPTSD Recovery and and discussing what it means for the collective to recover from complex trauma.

Finally, I end with a prayer that will remind you to break down any barriers standing in the way of your recovery. Be sure to check out all the exciting things happening in the CPTSD community and thank you for listening in!

“Lean in to connect when in distress!” — Tanner Wallace [21:44]

In this season, we’ve been exploring the central teachings of CPTSD recovery, and today, we unpack the third big idea: there is no separation. The concept that there is no separation can be a difficult one to engage with. It requires careful context to ensure that it’s deeply understood and does not unnecessarily trigger our Parts or self-doubt. Therefore, if today’s episode is particularly triggering to some of your Parts, Entities, or Energies, it’s important that you stop, step back, return to daily devotional practices, and skip this episode or revisit it when you are further in your healing journey. For those tuning in, you’ll learn why the idea that there is no separation is foundational to CPTSD recovery. You’ll be invited to contemplate your relationship with your parents in the context of your recovery and the importance of locating them in a much larger narrative. I also reflect on my own healing journey thus far and share what I wish I had done differently, before reflecting on the compassion I feel for my mother today and how healing has allowed me to become a stronger CycleBreaker. To find out why there is no separation and discover the gifts and medicine that come with healing, don’t miss this installment of the CPTSD Medicine Podcast!
Key Points From This Episode:
What is meant by the third big idea of CPTSD recovery: there is no separation.
CycleBreaking and the overarching goal of changing the course of human evolution.
Following us through the Directional Callings and the Energetic Stewardship that needs to happen.
Liminal Directional Calling and why it’s so unfamiliar to us as humans.
The Self-Energetic Frequencies we focus on in Liminal Directional Calling.
Contemplating our relationship with our parents in the context of CPTSD recovery.
Understanding our parents as part of a much larger narrative (and inheritance) of hurt.
Why the most wounded Parts of us need permission to speak the truth.
Regrets from my personal healing journey: speaking publicly about my parents.
Why you might need physical separation from your family during active CPTSD recovery.
Energetic and developmental differentiation and maintaining regulated emotional connection.
Understanding the difference between differentiation and separation.
Blame, humiliation, and separation: elements that go against cycle-breaking.
How healing facilitates CycleBreaking and evolving to the point of being a CycleBreaker
A guided invitation to connect with the essence of your parents.
Quotes:
“We find ourselves in these liminal spaces. I haven't fully released the past, but I also haven't landed completely in the future.” — Tanner Wallace [12:11]
“If we zoom out a little bit, we see ourselves, our children, our parents, our lineage, [and] our ancestors all woven together in a much larger narrative and inheritance of hurt.” — Tanner Wallace [19:45]
“Parts of us have been harmed significantly by our parents not being able, willing, or available to stop the trauma. But they didn't start the trauma. They're swimming in it, along with us.” — Tanner Wallace [20:10]
“Our most wounded Parts need permission to speak the truth. It's an essential part of CPTSD recovery.” — Tanner Wallace [20:35]
“Cycle-breaking is when the threads are repaired, restored, rejuvenated, [and] regenerated: internal attachment restoration and external attachment restoration.” — Tanner Wallace [28:17]
“Let’s neutralize the zing of responsibility so that it's available to us as mature adults on a healing path. Responsibility, accountability: these are the frequencies of cycle-breaking.” — Tanner Wallace [36:37]

It’s important to have anchoring concepts when we take on the huge transformative process of healing from CPTSD. This is how we remind ourselves why we are doing what we’re doing, especially when things get a little wobbly or uncertain. Season 12 is all about the big ideas of CPTSD recovery. Tune in for a deep dive into what it means to both grieve the fact that no one saved us as children and take responsibility for our own healing as adults. We explore what it truly means to be a Cycle Breaker, and the work required to alchemize the wisdom of healing into CPTSD Medicine to support us on the path to healing. This episode includes practical tools on what to do when we feel Protective Parts coming online as a response to challenges or stress, how to balance, receive, and provide energy to others, and more. Learn how to distinguish the idea of being rescued from the notion of finding support, along with many other key insights to encourage you on your healing journey. Thanks for listening!

During the final episode of our season on partnership in CPTSD recovery, Tanner summarizes some of the biggest lessons she has learned in partnership. While some of these are universal, all are especially important in the context of complex trauma recovery and partnership. We explore how to support and build up our relationship as we do some of the tougher healing work of recovery. We unpack the valuable practice of building time to talk into your daily schedule and discuss what is often behind relationship issues that keep on arising. Next, we explore what it might look like to create a sacred union and refuse to disrespect it, touching on the reorganizing and disorienting that occurs during CPTSD recovery. Lastly, you’ll hear all about the beautiful balance of having independent pursuits and shared values in your relationship and how important it is to be able to answer the question of who you are outside of it. Thanks for joining us for this season! I will back May 3rd with the first episode of Season 12!

“What we want to do is come into this beautiful middle space where I am dependent on my partner in very healthy, intentional ways, but I’m also supported in my independent pursuits and I am granted a level of autonomy that feels right in my body.” — Tanner Wallace [21:57]
“Each partner should be able to answer, at any point in the relationship, who am I without you?” — Tanner Wallace [22:23]

We can learn a lot from other people's questions, especially since they can bring up ideas we may never have thought to explore or put forward ourselves. And if you’re in any kind of group therapy setting, the response from the guide, coach, or mentor, will likely be meant for you as well, not just the person posing the question. In that spirit, we invite you to join today’s conversation as we answer a series of questions submitted by you, our listeners! Tuning in you’ll hear thoughtful and considered responses to each query. We explore prompts that will help you answer the sacred question “How to know when it’s time to say goodbye”, options for establishing a fresh start with a long-term partner who hurt you in the past, what you need to understand about the concept of integration after unburdening, and much more. We hope you’ll join us for this expansive conversation as we explore listener questions and beyond!
Key Points From This Episode:
Details on the special training program being launched in October and how to get involved.
An overview of the exciting things happening in the CPTSD universe.
Answering your listener questions on CPTSD.
Old hurts in the context of CPTSD recovery, and a long-term relationship.
How to truly start fresh, and build a safe and nourishing relationship with the same partner.

An examination of what to do if your partner has narcissistic characteristics.

Explaining the concept of integration after unburdening.
Taking a moment to honor the privilege of answering your listener questions.
Quotes:
“There's so much to learn from other people's questions, because sometimes there's questions posed that we would have never thought to ask.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [05:48]
“Sometimes older versions of us from our adolescent years will confuse our partner for our parent or will confuse our partner for an ex-lover or an ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. And that needs to be cleaned up because that's also a distortion.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [15:21]
“There's a very high bar for saying goodbye, in my personal opinion, because there's so much that can be done. To reach that point where you say with authenticity, clarity, transparency, it's time for me to say goodbye.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [25:22]
“A human that doesn't see other humans as human has been hurt horrifically. At some deep cellular level, they've been rejected.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [29:34]

In this culture of never-ending healing and never-ending personal development, it’s important to remember that one can heal from CPTSD, permanently. But to do so, your relational ecosystem needs to be strong and for that, you need a base of supportive humans. Today’s show is all about navigating complex relationships with extended friends and family in your trauma ecosystem. We discuss the role and importance of good communication, how others may react to your healing journey, the responsibility of safety in adults and children, and everything you need to take into account regarding your partner and your extended trauma ecosystem. We also assess four trauma sets that may negatively impact partnerships, and we are reminded of the importance of the unburdening process and of separating oneself energetically while remaining emotionally invested.
Key Points From This Episode:
How it’s possible to completely heal from CPTSD.
Why it’s important to know how to navigate relationships within your trauma ecosystem.
The role of communication.
How friends and family may react to your healing journey.
What it looks like as you progress further in your recovery.
Why safety is an internal experience for adults and an external demand for children.
What you need to know regarding extended family, friends, and your partner.
Four trauma sets that influence partnerships.
Separating energetically but remaining close emotionally.
Quotes:
“CPTSD, [a] complex trauma, is a specific relational injury that impacts almost every aspect of your life, internally and externally. And yet, it can be healed. It can be resolved. You can complete active recovery of CPTSD.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [01:50]
“The disconnections, the no contact, the estrangements; all of those, as I understand it now, are human attempts to demand external safety when in truth, safety is an internal experience.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [06:00]
“Continue to unburden your own system and radiate compassion, forgiveness, and love, and keep showing up in those frequencies and see what happens over time.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [11:43]
“Just repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat. It’s the same basic things again and again and again that create a successful CPTSD recovery journey.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [34:56]
Longer Quotes:
“You can’t really have a real, authentic, intimate relationship with somebody [who’s] running [on] survival instinct. You can appreciate them, you can hold space for them, you can be around them, you can laugh with them, you can even have fun with them, but that deep, reciprocal, authentic, genuine intimacy is not possible.” — Dr. Tanner Wallace [09:54]

This episode of the CPTSD Medicine Podcast dives into a complicated, yet necessary topic: sex. Context and history are important here because sex, sexuality, sexual satisfaction, sexual connection, and intimacy during CPTSD recovery can be so wildly nuanced. Join Tanner as she delves into why sex should be something you and your partner talk about (often) and invites you to become truly curious. She unpacks several instances that indicate a conversation is necessary, highlights a critical foundational principle to fuel mutual sexual satisfaction, and shares several pieces of homework for you and your partner to consider, work through, and implement as you continue on your journey toward improved sexual connection in your relationship. Tanner brings it all together by emphasizing the importance of radical responsibility and offers some practical tips to get you started on this beautiful and profound journey!
Key Points From This Episode:
Reasons that sex should not be taken off the table as a topic of conversation.
Why sex (and all it encompasses) is a basic, core, human need.
An invitation to be curious with your partner about sex.
Different indications that conversations about sex need to be had.
A disclaimer to pause the podcast to go and have a conversation.

Quotes:
“Sex, sexuality, sexual satisfaction, sexual connection, and intimacy are so wildly nuanced.” — Tanner Wallace [0:02:39]
“Our sexuality, sexual connection, [and] sexual expression in the context of a long-term partnership is non-negotiable. Sexual satisfaction, sexual expression, sexual fulfillment is a basic core human need.” — Tanner Wallace [0:06:45]
“Anything but neutral curiosity is an indication that there’s some work to be done here.” — Tanner Wallace [0:09:05]
“Waiting until you are healed to deal with your sexuality [and] sexual issues is avoiding a beautiful, sacred, profound training ground that is only possible in a partnership. There is no other space where this particular thing can be held.” — Tanner Wallace [0:30:44]
Longer Quotes:
“Our sexuality is not just practical. It’s not just transactional. It’s truly about life force activation. It’s about primal, deep, body energy. It’s about creativity, it’s about expression, it’s about release, it’s about satisfaction. It’s about flow states and transcending our human experience. It is truly about — [unlocking] experiences beyond what our human brain can comprehend.” — Tanner Wallace [0:15:17]
