271: A Vulnerable Conversation About Trauma


Listen Later

What if a vulnerable conversation could be enough to foster the comfort needed to relieve panic and anxiety? Many of us have history's littered with painful and traumatic moments that impact our everyday lives. On difficult days, sometimes a loving presence and caring questions are just enough to free us from our funk, while bringing repair to parts of our past.

In this episode Justin sits down with a grumpy gal named Abi, who isn't in the mood to do a podcast. Through thoughtful questions, Justin navigates Abi's swirl of emotions until they're able to shine a light on moments of trauma needing love and attention. Through a vulnerable recap of her history, Abi slowly softens until tender tears can be expressed. In this vulnerable and live healing experience, Justin and Abi discuss the impact of trauma on a person's life and model the simple, yet profound ways we can support someone we love in the midst of their messiness.

If you've ever wanted to see a practical example of loving someone in a painful moment, without having to fix them, this episode is an informative roadmap filled with truth, transparency, and tenderness. Watch it now, your loved ones will thank you later.
