SERIES DESCRIPTION:
Healing Image Hi is a deeply personal and powerful podcast series hosted by Eva May, a survivor of childhood sexual abuse living with dissociative identity disorder (DID) and complex PTSD. Through her raw, honest storytelling and compelling interviews, Eva sheds light on trauma recovery, mental health advocacy, and the systemic failures within healthcare systems, particularly in the UK where dissociative disorders receive little recognition or proper treatment. After 33 years of searching for appropriate care, Eva shares her journey of finally finding specialized treatment while becoming one of only 50 people in the UK receiving government-funded care for DID.

The series tackles crucial contemporary issues from humanitarian crises and workplace mental health to social media addiction and menopause, all through the lens of trauma-informed perspectives. Eva's conversations with remarkable guests – including judges, humanitarian workers, entrepreneurs, and fellow survivors – create a tapestry of resilience, hope, and advocacy. Her transformation from someone who couldn't leave her home due to agoraphobia to a radio host helping others, aided by her therapy dog Piper, exemplifies the healing power of connection and purpose. This series offers invaluable insights for trauma survivors, mental health advocates, and anyone seeking to understand the complex journey of healing from childhood abuse.
