Content Note / Trigger Warning:
This episode contains references to sexual abuse, trauma, and sensitive personal experiences.
In this fourth and final episode of the Healing Series on my Good Choices Podcast, I share parts of my personal story for the first time publicly. I want to be clear: I am not going into details.
There are aspects of my story I choose to keep private — to protect myself and my family. And at the same time, it feels important to name it. I am a survivor of sexual abuse. For a long time, I hesitated to speak about this publicly. I did not want to be seen in a victim role, nor did I feel the need to make my story the center of my work.
And yet, I have come to understand that personal stories can make things tangible in a way that abstract concepts cannot. In times like these — where more information is emerging around abuse, power, and systemic harm, and where more people are finding the courage to speak — I feel called to add my voice in a careful and conscious way.
In this episode, I speak about:
• the impact of early and later experiences of abuse
• the complexity of recognizing and naming trauma over time
• intergenerational patterns and healing processes
• the role of the body, movement, and touch in integration
• and how my work today is deeply connected to my own healing journey
The work I offer has always been shaped by these experiences — by the need for safety, for clarity, for boundaries, and for spaces where people can reconnect with themselves.
This is a vulnerable share.
I ask for your compassion in listening.

"Good Choices - A holistic conversation about dance, art & life with Sabine Parzer" is a podcast series in which we invite professionals of the dance and art world as well as related fields to speak about the choices that they make, artistically, personally, ecologically, politically and spiritually. How do these choices affect and inspire them in their work, their physical and mental health, their family lives, the communities that they live in? The questions we ask look toward the interrelation of life and art, how seemingly small (or big) choices may influence, enhance or even contradict the flow of life. Sabine Parzer is head and founder of the Holistic Dance Institute, an internationally well known teacher of Contemporary Dance, Contact improvisation and Authentic Movement. She has been professionally active as a dancer, choreographer, teacher, dance- and body therapist for more than 30 years in the USA, Europe, Russia, Brazil and Israel.
