About "Why Am I Like This?"

Healing from trauma and shifting from oppression to empowerment is an incredibly textured and non-linear journey. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach. It is not a process to complete but a way of life to choose and return to, again and again. In "Why Am I Like This" Natalia shares her perspectives and experiences of a deeply traumatized child, a mentally ill young woman, a sexual abuse survivor, and a woman who became incredibly sick and incapacitated. "Why Am I Like This?" Draws on Natalia's own epic quest to heal, thrive and put the pieces of her shattered body and broken heart back together again, and create a life full of peace and power. Lastly, it includes her professional experience as a therapist, clinic director and educator, working with thousands of trauma survivors to ignite their own paths to healing and embodiment.

If you're ready to look through a kaleidoscope and see yourself and the world like never before, 'Why Am I Like This?' is a must-read!

"The way Natalia Rachel speaks and writes about trauma, healing and embodiment cuts through the mental clutter and touches the heart. She meets us where we are human. Her vision for healing ourselves to co-create a better world inspires us all to dig deeper."

- Dr. Tanvi Gautam, President Asia Professional Speakers, MD Leadershift Inc. HR influencer.
