Hola Familia, welcome back to another transformative episode of Fire & Butterflies! 🦋✨ In this episode I’m joined by the incredible Melissa Brunetti, host of the Mind Your Own Karma: The Adoption Chronicles Podcast and a certified Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery® Practitioner. In this raw and real conversation, Melissa opens up about her journey as an adoptee and the deep pain that comes with having her identity stripped away from birth.

Now, through her advocacy work and private practice (Somatic Healing Journeys), Melissa helps adoptees and others uncover their own "healing combination" and address the trauma stored in their bodies, fostering deep, transformative healing. 🌿💫 In this episode, Melissa shares her powerful story of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment. Her Chisme for our listeners? Don’t wait for a hero—you are your own hero. 🦸‍♀️🔥 About Melissa Brunetti: Melissa Brunetti is a certified Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery® Practitioner, host of the Mind Your Own Karma: The Adoption Chronicles Podcast, and a published author featured in the groundbreaking book Adoption and Suicidality.
