In this special and heartfelt episode of Courage & Purpose, recorded on what would've been Juan’s birthday, Diana Ordonez sits down with her therapist, Sarah DelVecchio, LCSW—trauma and integrative health specialist—to discuss the transformative power of processing emotions and rewiring subconscious beliefs. Together, they explore how unresolved trauma and self-sabotaging patterns keep us stuck in survival mode and how healing can unlock the clarity, confidence, and emotional balance needed to thrive in every area of life.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
🔑 Breaking Free from Survival Mode: How unresolved emotions keep you reactive, overworking, or stuck in fear—and how addressing these emotions allows you to step into a thriving state where creativity and purpose flourish.
💬 “We develop coping mechanisms like perfectionism or overworking to feel in control, but they ultimately block us from growth. Slowing down is essential for creating the safety to process emotions and move forward.” – Sarah DelVecchio
🔑 Emotional Intelligence for Better Leadership: Why processing emotions enhances self-awareness, enabling you to respond instead of react in high-pressure situations and lead with clarity and purpose.
💬 “When we regulate our nervous system and tune in to our emotions, we show up more grounded and present—for our teams, our families, and ourselves.” – Diana Ordonez
🔑 Healing for Improved Relationships: How unprocessed trauma affects how you relate to others, and how releasing emotional wounds helps you build deeper connections with loved ones and colleagues.
💬 “When we heal, we see others with more compassion, and our relationships shift from being reactive to intentional and loving.” – Sarah DelVecchio
🔑 Optimizing Performance Through Emotional Safety: Understanding how a dysregulated nervous system impairs focus, productivity, and decision-making—and how creating safety in your body leads to peak performance.
💬 “Emotions that aren’t processed can physically weigh us down, affecting energy and performance. When we clear them, we unlock a new level of energy and clarity.” – Diana Ordonez
🔑 Creating Space for Purpose and Leadership: How rewiring subconscious beliefs creates space for innovation, bold decision-making, and leading with authenticity.
💬 “The nervous system drives everything we do. When we feel safe, we’re not just surviving—we’re thriving. That’s when leadership, creativity, and true impact become possible.” – Sarah DelVecchio
