92. Dave Markel: A Shared Episode of The Jan Broberg Show! I am honored to be able to bring to you an episode from The Jan Broberg Show, in which Jan invited me to be a guest on her show. After it aired (June 18, 2024; ), I contacted Jan and asked her if I could air a copy of her episode right here, on my show. She graciously and generously said yes! And, here is a copy of the notes from that episode, so you’ll have all the good stuff! I especially want to give a shout out to Eric Osborn, Jan’s production tech, for all the work he did in getting this episode aired originally, and for his time in providing a copy of the episode for me. Thanks Jan and Eric! Here is a copy of the notes from my episode with Jan so you’ll have all the good stuff! “Today, Jan is joined by friend of the podcast Dave Markel, an expert in trauma-informed interviews and a survivor of childhood and adult sexual assault. They discuss Dave's background and expertise, his personal experiences, and the importance of trauma-informed approaches. They explore the impact of trauma on interpersonal relationships and the challenges faced in implementing trauma-informed practices. Dave explains the neuroscience behind memory and trauma and recommends resources for further understanding. The conversation highlights the need for education and training to improve the response to sexual assault and support survivors in their healing journey. In this conversation, Jan Broberg and Dave Markel discuss the importance of telling the aftermath stories of sexual assault survivors. They explore the idea of creating a television show that focuses on the long-lasting impact of sexual assault and the different forms of grooming. They emphasize the need to start by believing survivors and the detrimental effects of blaming and disbelieving them. They also touch on the healing power of telling one's story and seeking support. In conclusion, they discuss the dangers of online relationships and how important it is to be skeptical until given proof of who you’re communicating with.” If you or your business could use Dave's consulting services visit his website at: Be sure to check out Dave Markel's podcast Sexual Assault Survivor Stories, the SASS podcast: Mentioned Resources: The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk Trauma and Memory by Peter Levine Other important links:
