Trauma, Psychosis, and the Path to Purpose: The Unfiltered Story of Dr. Tanya Lea

What happens when a military veteran, sexual assault survivor, and corporate high-achiever reaches her breaking point — only to rise as a powerful transformational coach and energy healer?

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Dr. Tanya Lea, founder of Consciously Aware, to hear her deeply personal story of trauma, awakening, and healing. From waitressing to serving 11 years in the military, including deployments to Haiti and Cuba, to climbing the corporate ladder, Dr. Tanya seemed to have it all together. But beneath her strength was unprocessed trauma and emotional overload.

She bravely shares her journey of surviving military sexual assault and how, nearly three decades later, the suppressed trauma resurfaced — leading to hospitalization and a full psychotic break. Yet what could have broken her instead sparked her spiritual awakening and transformation.

🎙️ In this episode, we dive into:

• How trauma gets trapped in the body and often shows up as chronic illness (Dr. Tanya experienced 8 major surgeries)
• The thin line between spiritual awakening and a mental health crisis — and why systems often misinterpret both
• Why traditional therapy and medication weren’t enough — and how alternative methods like Psych-K®, bioenergetics, shadow work, and subconscious reprogramming helped her fully heal
• The science and soul behind NES Bioenergetics, microcirculation, chakra balancing, and energy healing
• How one client conceived after years of infertility using Tanya’s energy-based methods
• Tools for empaths and trauma survivors to regulate their nervous system and shift from survival mode to self-mastery

Dr. Tanya discusses the revolutionary idea that our emotional experiences are stored not only in our minds but in our cells — and how healing on an energetic level can unlock transformation that talk therapy often can’t reach.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in emotional cycles, battled anxiety, or questioned if true healing is possible, this episode is for you. Her story is a reminder that even in our darkest hours, we have the power to alchemize pain into purpose.
