In conversation with Leonie...

Mark Collin is a transformational coach with over 15 years’ experience helping people around the world reconnect with themselves and build meaningful, grounded lives. He brings deep empathy, extensive coaching expertise, and a passion for guiding others through inner healing and personal evolution.

Melanie Curtis brings her own lived journey of healing from early trauma to the heart of their work. Her insight into emotional regulation, somatic awareness, and authentic transformation shapes the Coming Home approach, making it both compassionate and powerful. Together, Mark and Melanie guide individuals through somatic and nervous-system-focused transformation toward greater wholeness and self-actualisation.

Key points of the episode:

• The work of Mark and Melanie, and the importance of working with the subconscious mind.
• The faults of the current system, and better and faster interventions available.
• The personal experience of Melanie, and the reason that she does the job she does.
• How years could be taken off healing time.
• How there is a place for the usual healing route (like counselling and CBT) but there are limits.
• A new vision for a somatic (body based) approach and the hope of having it in the NHS.
• The misunderstanding of "Just Get Over It"
• Mark's story and the work he does now.
• How we all do the best we can given the circumstances and knowledge we had at the time.
• How the body adapts, and how that could well have been necessary at the time.
• (In other words you are doing much better than you think)
• How we cannot punish ourselves to healing or shame ourselves out of shame!
• Mark's powerful life philosophy.
• How all emotions, feelings amd responses are appropriate, and how we need a safe container to express and alchemise it.
• The importance of trauma informed practise and the concept of "titration"

Key points of this episode:

• How so many people have likely been affected by the series on Netflix.
• How we seek "rewrites of a narrative", and why the victim of sexual violence needs to reexperience the situation, but with them being in control....
• ....and/or the need for the body and brain to feel safe again.
• How survival is so accuractly portrayed in the drama, albeit very triggering.
• How the main actor in the drama became confused sexually, which is understandable in the circumstances....
• ...how the brain procecces sexual violence and the confusing way it plays out for survivors.
• Showing the real and shattering pain of sexual violence.
• How we need to focus more on the offending behaviour than the victim (although this is very important)
