Deep Within with Marina Triner, The Compassionate Somatic Coach

There’s so much content out there about healing childhood trauma. And I’m here to tell you, from my heart to yours — it’s a bitch. It’s messy. It’s long. It’s layered. And even those of us who teach this work still cry, still get triggered, and still move through it in real time.
In this episode, I share the four stages of healing that I teach my clients — and how they directly mirror what secure attachment in childhood was supposed to provide. Because the truth is, most of us didn’t get what we needed. And now we get to learn how to offer that to ourselves.
We explore reconnecting to sensations when you’ve been dissociated for years, what nervous system regulation actually means (and why so much of what’s said online misses the point), how to feel emotions safely instead of suppressing them, how to recognize and meet your needs without shame, and why desire is often the most terrifying and liberating layer of all.
This is not a quick fix episode. This is an honest one. Healing is not about becoming calm and never feeling anything again. It’s about building the capacity to feel deeply and stay safe while you do.
If you’ve ever wondered why this work feels so hard, why expressing yourself feels dangerous, or why asking for what you want feels like risking abandonment — this episode will help you understand the layers.

“There’s a lot of content out there on healing childhood trauma, and I’m here to tell you that it’s a bitch.”

“The most incredible healing experience is when you can have authenticity and connection at the same time.”
“You never were given the instructions that you were supposed to get — and now you get to become that parent for yourself.”

In this heartfelt episode, I open up about two painful breakups and the unexpected healing that came from allowing myself to be witnessed in my most vulnerable moments. I explore the idea of disconfirming experiences — moments where the body learns safety in ways it never has before — and why they are so essential for healing childhood wounds, especially when it comes to emotions, expression, and receiving care.
Through personal stories and client examples, I unpack how our nervous systems hold onto the past, how somatic work can gently begin to shift those deep patterns, and why going slow, honoring resistance, and cultivating safe relationships is the key to emotional freedom.
If you've ever wanted to cry but felt like you couldn’t, or longed to be seen but feared it was too much — this episode will help you understand why and what to do next.

Top Episode Quotes:
"It took me a long time to get to the point where I actually allowed people to witness me crying."
"Your body is not sabotaging you — it's protecting you based on what it learned in childhood."
"Disconfirming experiences teach the nervous system something new — not through theory, but through real, safe, felt experience."
"The first step is not to push the protector away, but to honor it. That part of you kept you alive."

In this episode, I sit down with Kate Turner—a powerhouse coach with 15 years of experience in Sales and Technology. We explore her journey through the highs and lows of working in fast-paced tech environments, fundraising rounds, executive roles, and the personal transformation that came from burning out while "doing everything right."
Kate shares how she rebuilt her life and career from a place of deeper alignment, integrating nervous system awareness, boundaries, and intentional choices that serve her body and her values. If you’ve ever found yourself chasing success while losing yourself in the process, this conversation is a must-listen.
We dive into the difference between achievement and fulfillment, why the stories we tell ourselves about productivity are often rooted in fear, and how to begin untangling your identity from your career. This episode will help you pause, reflect, and ask: what does success really mean to me?

In this deeply personal episode, I share the story of how my lifelong drive to be “the good girl” ruled my relationships, my nervous system, and even my sense of self. For most of my life, I played by the rules—always saying the right thing, doing the right thing, living up to everyone else’s expectations. But it wasn’t until I unexpectedly fell in love with someone society might label as "the wrong person" that everything cracked open. What followed was the most transformative, heart-opening journey of my life—one that taught me how to reclaim my truth, my voice, and the courage to live by my own rules. This story isn’t just about love—it’s about breaking generational patterns, healing the abandonment wound, and learning how to finally feel safe being your full, complex, imperfect self.
If you’ve ever felt like you couldn’t mess up, couldn’t ask for what you need, or couldn’t be too much, this episode is for you.

Top Episode Quotes:
“Perfectionism doesn’t always look like a tidy house—it can look like never upsetting anyone.”

In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the exhausting pattern of constantly scanning for safety—checking for signs of rejection, withdrawal, or disconnection—in our relationships, work, and daily life.
I share the story of how I internalized this hypervigilance from a loving but emotionally inconsistent parent, and how it shaped my nervous system and sense of safety. This episode is not about blaming—it’s about naming the root and finding the path home.
If you’ve ever found yourself waiting for the other shoe to drop, reading too deeply into someone’s silence, or feeling numb when life is actually going well... you’re not alone. This is survival mode—and there is another way.
You’ll hear how I’ve begun softening this pattern through nervous system work, how it shows up in business and relationships, and what it actually means to stop living from the outside in.
This is your reminder: you’re not too sensitive or broken. You’ve adapted. And now you get to choose something new.
