Nina Garcia is a DRAMA THERAPIST! That's a thing and I am so glad Nina is doing this powerful work. 
Drama therapy offers a framework, a safe container to explore and express all of our emotions and traumas. 
We had a fascinating conversation about being powered vs empowered. These ideas will challenge you (hooray for learning and unlearning!) Hint: We want more empowered responses:) 
Nina and I talk trauma, PTSD, safety, identity, intimacy, mental health, stigma, and neurodiversity. She shares a personal story and why identity is particularly important for her to work and play with. 
Nina asks "can we play with that?" when she wants people to engage in and lean in to conversation, especially difficult ones. Trauma wants us to avoid conversation that feels unsafe, so we need people like Nina more than ever.  
The faster we work through our trauma, the less likely we are to experience PTSD and unnecessary suffering. We can take back our power and own our story. 
I believe Nina is a brilliant and creative healer. This episode will open your heart, mind, and possibilities in the best of ways.
