Trauma Is Not Your Identity: How a Stroke at 28 and Abuse Memories at 50 Taught One Healer to Stop Living as a Survivor

Leanne Sheargold is an intuitive trauma healer and quantum healing practitioner who supports women and men recovering from childhood abuse, domestic violence, complex trauma, and life-shattering health events.

Her pathway into healing began with a personal health crisis and decades of life upheaval. She had a stroke at 28 while parenting three sons under five, and later, in her early 50s, began recovering repressed memories of childhood abuse while her marriage collapsed. Seeking intensive treatment overseas led to a period of focused recovery and community support that redirected her life toward running healing circles and offering energy work.

Today, Leanne uses her lived experience and spiritual healing work to help women reconnect with themselves, release old patterns, and move beyond trauma. She co-runs a healing shop in Australia, where she supports clients through quantum healing, energy work, spiritual practices, aromatherapy products, meditation, both in person and remotely. Her work often focuses on women dealing with trauma, chronic fatigue, emotional heaviness, family narratives, old belief systems, and the process of becoming what she calls a “chain breaker.”

On a practical level she combines intuitive and multidimensional practices with body-based awareness, ancestral healing, and energetic support to help clients clear trauma, inherited patterns, and energetic imprints.
