OM DENNE EPISODE
Samantha and Melissa open their second-to-last episode reflecting on the sadness of ending the podcast, noting behind-the-scenes pressure, shifting plans for the brand, and Melissa feeling spread too thin after a major expo didn’t go as hoped.
They pivot to April awareness for functional neurological disorders (FND) and psychogenic non-epileptic seizures, discussing how patients—even children—can be diagnosed yet dismissed by providers, left without care, and facing alarming suicide risk.
Samantha explains her view of FND as a protective “safety loop,” why “trauma” is controversial and subjective, and how Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) uses a hypnosis-like relaxed state to access the subconscious, uncover formative scenes, and reprogram habits via a 21-day recording protocol.
They share bits about the RTT session Melissa had which focused on childhood guilt.
In the end Samantha hits how impactful RTT is for those diagnosed with FND and refers to the success one client recently experienced. There's mention of research and outreach that is in progress with a ring of neuroscientists. and last but not least, Samantha announces a free Zoom FND support event on April 8 at 2:00pm EST. Show your support with #FNDaware.
