What if everything you believe about who you are — your name, your past, your emotions, even your thoughts — is not actually you?

In this powerful episode, Lisa A. Romano guides you beyond surface-level healing and into the core illusion that keeps so many of us trapped: the false self. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and spiritual wisdom, Lisa reveals how trauma wires the brain to associate authenticity with danger, keeping us neurologically stuck in survival mode long after the threat is gone.

When safety is wired to people-pleasing, fawning, or emotional shutdown, the real you gets buried beneath layers of programming. But through conscious awakening, and by breaking through veil after veil of illusion, you can remember who you truly are.

In this episode, you'll discover:

✨ Why your brain resists emotional truth even when your soul craves freedom
🧠 How survival patterns become neurological defaults
🚪 The moment you realize "That's not me" and shatter ego-identification
🔥 Why authenticity feels unsafe (and how to rewire it as safety)
🌟 The radical power of witnessing yourself as consciousness instead of conditioning

This episode is for you if:

✔️ You feel stuck in the same emotional cycles
✔️ You've done inner work but still don't feel fully free
✔️ You've questioned your identity, purpose, or sense of self
✔️ You're ready to step into higher consciousness

Saying NO is the turning point in recovery from codependency, narcissistic abuse, and childhood trauma. But for adult children of alcoholics and trauma survivors, it can feel terrifying—like you're choosing rejection or abandonment.

In this episode, we'll explore why the first boundary is always the hardest, and why it's also the most powerful step toward freedom.

You'll discover:

• Why your brain links "no" with danger and rejection

• How childhood programming makes boundaries feel unsafe

• Why toxic people push back when you finally walk away

• How saying no rewires your brain for self-love and peace

If guilt, fear, or self-doubt rise up when you try to protect your peace, this episode will remind you: you're not broken—your brain is coded to expect pain. And with awareness, you can rewrite that code.
