In this episode, we are joined by Alyssa and David Scolari as they share how they met in a career in social service and are now traversing their relationship while learning about and dealing with trauma. Alyssa suffers from PTSD and David is a happy-go-lucky kind of person, both understood that marriage is not about doing something for your partner because they did something for you. Alyssa reiterates the point by also sharing how they do not split 50-50 in the relationship all the time, especially when David had to work for 16 hours a day and switch the split when Alyssa is the one occupied. They also share how healing from trauma is never best done alone. Letting your partner into the healing process is helpful and also prepares them mentally and emotionally for the journey.
