Unpacking Me
Unpacking Me: Unpacking the parts of Trauma no one talks about!
A raw and honest podcast where we dive deep into the experiences that shaped us—the pain, the healing, and everything in between.
Hosted by Nicky and Mernelle, we explore the unspoken struggles of trauma, mental health, and self-discovery, creating a space for real conversations that many shy away from.
We’re here to unpack the baggage we’ve carried, challenge the narratives we’ve been told, and break cycles that no longer serve us. Whether you’re on your own healing journey, seeking connection, or just need a space where vulnerability is welcomed—you belong here.
Join us as we share our personal stories, unpack the past, and navigate the messy yet beautiful process of growth. Let’s do the work, together.
