95: Episode 95 - The Way Trauma Changes Us

Trauma is a word that means different things to different people, but trauma as defined is, "a deeply distressing or disturbing experience." This means that we all have trauma to some extent or another, and our trauma changes us and how we see the world. Today on the pod, we discuss my cycling accident and the way it has manifested changes in me - both helpful and distressing - and the ways we all need to stay awake to our own trauma. Join us for an important conversation. XO n. PLEASE RATE AND REVIEW THE PODCAST HERE TO HELP OTHERS FIND IT!
