S4 Ep6: Navigating Change, Trauma & the Call to Help Others with Christine Ober

Waking Up The Witch · 2025-06-25

In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with Christine for a vulnerable and inspiring conversation about her life journey — from growing up in a complex family dynamic to navigating love, identity, and faith on her own terms.

Christine opens up about the experiences that shaped her, including the challenges of parenting on the move as a military spouse, returning to school to pursue social work, and the inner healing that led her to become a therapist. We talk about trauma, anxiety, and the healing power of EMDR therapy, as well as the spiritual threads that have always been present in her life.

She also shares about her podcast Unexplained Oregon, where she and her best friend dive into the creepy, mysterious, and unexplainable side of the Pacific Northwest — bringing in their own humor, curiosity, and love of the weird.

This one is for anyone on a path of self-discovery, healing, and learning to trust their own voice.
