46. Emily Stroia: Healing from Trauma and Finding Meaningful Purpose
Emily Stroia is a life coach, spiritual counselor, military veteran, author and mom. She has mentored thousands of clients from all over the world on healing from loss, trauma, and finding purpose again. Currently Emily is working to obtain her master's degree in clinical psychology with a specialization in trauma at Antioch University Los Angeles. Knowing what you know now about her being a student, and a life coach, and a spiritual counselor, and most importantly a mom, you know that Emily doesn’t have much free time, so for her to agree to be a guest on this show was a huge honor and privilege for me! In what little free time Emily has, she loves to spend time with her son, and her friends, and when possible, she loves to travel, hike, try new restaurants, and write.
You would not likely guess, based on Emily’s current life, that she would have had a horrific, terrifying, and painful childhood. But as is the case in so many childhood sexual assault and physical abuse stories, it isn’t uncommon to find that some victims thrive in doing whatever they can to cover up their pain with successes and growth in other areas…such is the story with Emily. She was a model student, then went on to have a successful military stint. But after the service she provided to our country, Emily took a wild trip to New York, just to see what it was like. That didn’t go so well for Emily and she wound up in a VA hospital, trying to find herself. Eventually, it was on to therapy. But when you’re a victim of child abuse and sexual assault, facing the past can be an extremely scary and daunting prospect.
Emily found her way through the pain of working on her past…and continues to do so even now. It’s a success story…and it continues as she raises her son, goes to school, and works on her memoir; her plans are to release the memoir on healing from childhood sexual abuse and trauma in 2025. It’s something to look forward to! In the meantime, listen to this episode. And share it with everyone you know! Then rate and subscribe to the podcast, and leave a review, if you would please! I’d truly appreciate hearing from you!
And don’t forget to Start By Believing. Because we all know someone whose life has been affected by rape or sexual assault.
