Hi, I’m Heidi Carlson, a Trauma-Informed Generational Trauma & Mother Wound Coach.

I help women understand why their patterns, survival behaviors, and emotional wounds exist… so they can heal what’s holding them back and live empowered in every area of their lives.

I know what it’s like to carry patterns that don’t make sense and not understand parts of yourself.

For years, even though I looked confident and successful on the outside, I lived with thoughts and patterns that were deeply confusing. I knew they weren’t mine, but I also didn’t know how to escape them.

It was frustrating, emotionally draining and painful.

Some of my patterns included:

  • pleasing everyone but myself

  • keeping myself small (in certain settings)

  • I didn’t know how to set boundaries

  • perfectionism

  • overachieving

  • never feeling I’ve done enough

  • struggling to express my emotions

  • difficulty navigating conflict

  • suppressing parts of myself to keep the peace

Over time, I started uncovering the root cause, generational trauma and the Mother Wound… and I healed.

Now, using trauma-informed practices, nervous system regulation practices, and 30+ years of personal growth and training, I help women heal their generational trauma, attachment wounds, and the Mother Wound so they can live with clarity, peace, and emotional freedom.

If you’re ready, I look forward to walking this path with you.

Heidi, Xo
