Episode 2: Episode 2: What is Trauma?

Episode 2 - What is Trauma? In this foundational episode, we explore the question: What is trauma? Moving beyond buzzwords and clinical definitions, we unpack the many layers of trauma—how it lives in the body, how it shapes the nervous system, and how it influences our beliefs, relationships, and identity. Whether you’re a therapist, a healing professional, or someone on a personal journey of recovery, this episode offers insight into the different types of trauma (shock trauma, developmental trauma, intergenerational trauma), how trauma shows up in everyday life, and why understanding it is essential for true healing and transformation. Join us as we lay the groundwork for the transformative work that happens at retreats, in therapy, and within ourselves.
