In this episode of The Art of BEing Unstoppable, Vicki McDougall sits down with Anjana Nambissan, Board Certified Integrative NeuroSomatic Practitioner and Emotional Wellness Expert, for a powerful conversation about childhood trauma, self-love, and the profound connection between the mind, body, and unconscious beliefs.

Anjana shares how our earliest experiences shape the way we think, feel, and respond to the world around us—often without us even realizing it. Together, Vicki and Anjana explore how unresolved childhood experiences, limiting beliefs, and stored emotions can influence our relationships, confidence, decision-making, and overall well-being throughout adulthood.

The conversation dives into the role of the unconscious mind and the body, revealing how emotional patterns are often held beneath the surface and continue to impact our daily lives until they are acknowledged and healed. Anjana explains how the beliefs we develop early in life can quietly shape our reality, and how learning to work with both the mind and body can create lasting transformation.

Vicki and Anjana also discuss the journey of self-love, learning to reconnect with yourself, and why true transformation begins by understanding the stories you've carried for so long. Rather than simply coping with the past, Anjana shares how healing allows us to release emotional baggage, rewrite limiting beliefs, and create a future rooted in awareness, compassion, and empowerment.

Whether you're working through childhood wounds, struggling with limiting beliefs, or simply looking to deepen your relationship with yourself, this episode offers hope, practical insight, and the reminder that healing is always possible.
