Survived childhood trauma? Ready to thrive, find love, and build a life you’re proud of?

What does it actually mean to heal your inner child—and why do so many people get it wrong?

In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, Michael Unbroken sits down with healer and author Jen Peters to break down the practical side of inner child healing—without the fluff.

They dive into abandonment wounds, self-sabotage, destructive relationship patterns, dissociation, urgency-based decisions, and the unconscious behaviors that quietly run our lives. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep repeating the same patterns in love, work, or life—even while “doing the work”—this episode is for you.

Jen shares her personal story of adoption, trauma, abuse, addiction, and survival—and how healing her inner child transformed her life.

Today, you’ll learn:

What healing your inner child really means
How abandonment wounds shape adult relationships
Why urgency often signals unresolved trauma
The difference between honoring your inner child and letting it run your life
How self-abandonment shows up in overgiving, chaos, and people-pleasing
Practical steps to reparent yourself and build emotional stability
Why routine and self-discipline are part of healing—not punishment

This episode challenges the popular narratives around healing and gives you grounded, actionable tools to create lasting change.

If you’re ready to stop self-sabotaging, break destructive cycles, and build emotional safety within yourself—this conversation will meet you where you are.
