Why Your Soul Chose This Life: A Trauma Healer's Guide to Breaking the Cycle with Petra Brzovic

In this episode I sit down with Petra Brzović, an internationally recognised therapist and healer with over 20 years of experience helping people heal trauma stored in the mind, body, and soul. Petra serves as Director of Education and sits on the board of the Michael Newton Institute for Life Between Lives Therapy, and she recently founded her own teaching academy to train the next generation of practitioners in her Sankara Method, a modality that blends hypnotherapy, regression therapy, and soul level healing with an actual medical and scientific foundation. We talk about the moment that changed everything for me personally, the retreat where Petra told me I chose my parents, and how that single sentence broke apart years of victim thinking. Petra opens up about her own near death experience during a traumatic birth, the collapse of her marriage and career that pushed her fully into this work, and why she believes every wound we carry, whether it comes from childhood, the womb, a past life, or our ancestors, is actually an invitation from the soul to learn something specific. We go deep into why hypnotherapy and regression therapy can access what years of talk therapy sometimes cannot, why the body keeps score even when the conscious mind has moved on, and what Petra actually does inside a session when someone arrives with something like a frozen shoulder, thyroid issues, or an autoimmune condition. She also shares how she works alongside doctors, including oncologists, to address the trauma underneath physical illness, and what her new book, out in October, is about. If you have ever felt like your body was trying to tell you something your mind could not explain, this conversation will stay with you.
