Anne and Alison talk with a transformational life coach, Christina Berkley, about her childhood as a latchkey kid, Canadian immigrant from Romania, her journey healing her own trauma, and how that lead her to work as a coach. Trance and plant medicine have been foundational to her healing and practice. Working with Christina as a coach in 2014, Alison was able to do some deep inner child healing work.

Have you ever wondered about the differences between coaching and therapy?? This episode is for you!

Christina Berkley was my first life coach in 2014 and changed the trajectory of my life for the better. She was the first healer who helped me access the felt sense of my childhood wounds.
