In this deeply personal opening to The Six Arcs: A Spiral Journey Into Trauma Recovery, Genoa Kay invites listeners into the first arc where it all begins: Reclaiming Innocence.

She explores what it means to reclaim innocence, not by ignoring what happened, but by telling the truth about it. At the very least, to yourself. Throughout this first arc, Genoa shares parts of her own story, the experiences that shaped her, and how reclaiming innocence has become a pivotal part of her healing journey.

This episode lays the foundation for the rest of the series, offering a gentle yet powerful message of hope: that even in the aftermath of pain, we can still reconnect with the parts of ourselves we thought were gone forever.
