ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On the Enchanted Earth Podcast, Maureen Calamia interviews author and certified life coach Rachael Wolff, who shares how nature helps her stay present and manage trauma-related spirals rooted in her past as a suicidal teen and her experiences with PTSD, OCD, and ADHD. Wolff recounts childhood connections to creeks and woods, raising her own children with camping and road trips, and a pivotal lesson from a banyan tree that wasn’t dropping aerial roots until she removed “dead weight,” mirroring her need to leave a toxic relationship. She also describes receiving comfort after a friend’s death through an unexpected giant sunflower, and how small moments—like a mockingbird’s song—can interrupt darkness. The conversation explores surrender, shifting out of fear/lack stories, practical grounding tools, and how approaches like EMDR and positive psychology can help rewire narratives beyond talk therapy.
