Finding/freeing The Child Within the process
Flower Child the Podcast was created to serve adult children of addicts and dysfunctional families who are navigating the often unseen impact of childhood trauma in adulthood.
Many survivors grow up believing their coping mechanisms are simply “who they are,” unaware that people-pleasing, emotional shutdown, hyper-independence, and fear of abandonment are survival responses formed in childhood. Flower Child exists to gently bring awareness to these patterns—without judgment—and offer pathways toward healing.
Hosted by trauma-informed advocate Ke’Onda Washington, the podcast blends lived experience, spiritually-based insight, and nervous-system-safe practices to help listeners reconnect with their authentic selves. Each episode is designed to feel grounding, validating, and accessible, honoring the truth that healing does not happen through force—but through safety.
At its heart, Flower Child the Podcast believes this:
Healing doesn’t require reliving the past—only acknowledging it with compassion.
This is a space for reflection, restoration, and growth.
A place to bloom after years of wiliting.

Peace Flower Child 🌻
My name is KeOnda (ke-awn-duh); welcome to {your} safe space to >>BLOOM<<
Because flowers don’t bloom by force.
They bloom when the environment is safe, nourished, and patient.
And adult children of addicts deserve that same environment.
What I Do
I am a Co-creator of healing spaces! Who has learned to turn chaos into regulated systems for myself and others.
My focus is to help individuals through holistic, strength-based practices as they learn to understand, process, and heal from the emotional and psychological impact of childhood trauma—particularly trauma shaped by growing up with a parent struggling with addiction. 🌻
I do this by creating safe, intentional spaces that center awareness, compassion, and nervous-system regulation. I address experiences commonly rooted in childhood trauma, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and struggles with self-esteem and identity.
I do this work because I know what it’s like to survive childhood and carry it silently into adulthood—believing survival patterns are personality traits, and pain is something to manage rather than heal. I’ve witnessed how unaddressed trauma continues to shape our choices, relationships, and sense of self long after the chaos ends. I believe no one should have to navigate that awakening alone.
Through this work, I empower individuals to reconnect with their inner strength, regain a sense of control over their lives, and build healthier relationships—with themselves and others. By addressing childhood trauma, we can break generational cycles, loosen the grip of survival-based behaviors, and cultivate a deeper sense of self-worth, safety, and wholeness.
Healing the past isn’t about blame—it’s about freedom.
