23. Somatics and Trauma-Trained vs. Trauma-Informed: A Convo with Taylor Cope


Listen Later

In this thoughtful coffee chat, Jess sits down with trauma-trained somatic facilitator Taylor Cope to unpack the difference between trauma-informed and trauma-trained work — and why that distinction matters so much in the coaching space. They explore what somatics actually is, how it differs from traditional talk therapy, and how embodied practices can support healing in ways conversation alone sometimes can’t. Taylor also shares her personal journey of reconnecting with her emotions, offering an honest, compassionate look at what it means to feel again. This episode is grounding, educational, and empowering for anyone curious about trauma-aware approaches to growth and self-understanding.
