Transformative Journeys - to Growth and Resilience
Welcome to Transformative Journeys – the channel where growth meets grit, healing gets honest (sometimes the “I can’t believe she said that” kind), and resilience means practice-makes-progress.
If you’ve ever hit a breaking point, questioned everything, or felt like the old “you” doesn’t quite anymore-you’re not alone.
Hosted by Johanna, a resilience rebel with a wicked sense of humor and a heart for healing, this channel explores emotional wellness, self-compassion, and what it really means to bounce back (even if you're held together with duct tape and caffeine).
Here you’ll find:
Podcast episodes every other Monday
Shorts with bite-sized insights and tough-love pep talks
Tools rooted in neuroscience, story-telling, and lived experience.
No perfection. No toxic positivity. Just grounded support for navigating the messy middle of healing and growth.
Because transformation isn’t about “getting over it.”
It’s about growing through it.

Choosing Yourself Without Guilt: Why Your Healing Isn’t Selfish
Have you ever felt guilty for resting, saying “no,” or simply putting your own healing first?
Yup. Same here.
In this episode of Transformative Journeys, we’re unpacking the guilt so many of us feel when we finally try to choose ourselves - and why that guilt isn’t a sign that you’re selfish… it’s a sign that you’ve been conditioned to ignore your own needs.
You’ll learn:
- Why choosing yourself isn’t selfish - it’s neurologically necessary
- The brain science behind guilt, stress, and people-pleasing
- What compassion fatigue looks like (and why it’s not “just being tired”)
- Practical tools to help you prioritize your healing without the shame-spiral
💜 If your inner guilt gremlin gets loud any time you try to slow down, rest, or take up space - this one’s for you.
