Dr. Georgeann Dau introduces her guest Gaetane Martin, the author of the book 100 Pennies, and the two begin to discuss the content and inspiration behind the book. Gaetane explains her childhood, and how she lived with survival being the major focus of her day to day life. Georgeann explains how abandonment and rejection are big factors behind trauma that children have, and that children tend to put the blame of family issues onto themselves. Gaetane discusses how through her mother, and her mother’s family she was introduced to God and Jesus, and through Church she was able to start her journey through healing. Gaetane explains what dissociation is, and how throughout her childhood she was dissociating to deal with the trauma she was experiencing, and how important it was to realize that what she was doing was dissociation.

Gaetane explains when she first felt God’s presence in her life, and how she always felt an energy throughout her life. She continues to explain her growing with God, and how her wounds she gained throughout her life became sacred wounds. Georgeann and Gaetane discuss how even though throughout her childhood Gaetane felt imprisoned by her father, she knew with the guidance of God that she was going to be able to leave one day.

Gaetane explains her relationship with the teachings of suffering with the church, and how for a large part of her life she disagreed with the church’s teachings of suffering as she had suffered so much already. But, she came to the realization through the guidance of God that this was how her life was supposed to be and she understood the meaning behind the teachings regarding suffering. Gaetane also explains her journey moving to the United States, and how she was able to continue her spiritual journey as well as her healing process. That through her spiritual and healing journey she was able to see the person she truly is without any restrictions.

Gaetane explains her journey that she and her daughter experienced, and how she was overprotected of her, as well as her son as well. During that time in her life she was trying to live as a person that she was not, and because of this her daughter suffered. Georgeann and Gaetane discuss dissociation, and how it is used as a defense against the trauma one experiences. Gaetane explains her process of facing her anger and rage that she had felt throughout her young life, and then grieving everything she has lossed in her life because of her abuse and trauma.
