Natalia Rachel is the founder of Iluma Health and author of “Why am I Like This?” As a therapist, she believes that the root of healing the world begins with healing our own trauma.  



Natalia spills:

- The impact trauma has on our relationships and how we take in the world 

- Why trauma isn’t about what happened but rather how it’s left “unmetabolized” by our bodies

- Missed symptoms of having “less easy to spot” trauma

- Her unpopular opinion of why knowing your personality type can be a danger to your evolution

- The dangers of allowing a diagnosis to become your identity

- Trauma Bonding: what is it and how does it impact intimacy

- Why we often feel repulsed by people who are “good” for us but attracted to those who are “bad” for us

- Why we can’t rush embodiment and why “healing” for too long can be harmful

- How popular self-help advice can perpetuate shame and be more harmful than helpful 

- and more….
