Today we’d like to introduce you to Renee Frye.
Hi Renee, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
My journey into this work began through my own lived experience with addiction and trauma. That healing path gave me a deep understanding of how hard recovery can be, especially when pain affects the mind, body, spirit, and relationships. As I worked through my own healing, I came to see that lasting recovery often takes more than symptom management. It requires safety, connection, support, self-awareness, and care that honors the whole person.
That lived experience became the foundation for everything I do today. Over the years, I built on it through professional training, behavioral health work, trauma-informed practice, and integrative healing approaches. That is what led me to found Sacred Sol Healing Institute and develop the Deconstructing Trauma™ Program—creating practical, trauma-informed healing resources for both public self-help and professional use. What began as my own healing journey has grown into a broader mission of helping others find resilience, restoration, and hope through whole-person healing.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
No, it has not been a smooth road. This work came out of my own lived experience with addiction, trauma, and fighting hard for my own healing. It took a lot to rebuild my life, and it has also taken a lot to build something meaningful from that journey. There were struggles personally and professionally, and there were many times I was carrying a big vision with very little support.
I had to push through lack of funding, limited resources, misunderstanding, and the reality of building something important while carrying much of the weight myself. Another challenge has been bringing forward trauma-informed, holistic, and traditional healing approaches in systems that do not always recognize their value right away. But every challenge shaped this work. Sacred Sol Healing Institute and the Deconstructing Trauma Program were built from lived experience, deep healing, and a commitment to helping others find hope, resilience, and real support.

How do you think about luck?
I would not describe my journey as luck-driven. What brought me here was lived experience, hard lessons, healing, and persistence. If anything, what some might call “bad luck” shaped me the most. The challenges I faced in my own life—addiction, trauma, rebuilding—became the very foundation for the work I do today. Those experiences were painful, but they also gave me clarity, empathy, and direction.
If there has been good luck, it has been in the people who crossed my path at the right time—mentors, colleagues, and community members who believed in the work or offered support when it mattered. But more than luck, this journey has been about commitment. Sacred Sol Healing Institute and the Deconstructing Trauma™ Program were built through resilience, intention, and a decision to turn struggle into purpose.
