Celebrating the Small Wins: An Interview with Lauren Broderick


Listen Later

Lauren Broderick began her trauma-informed journey with Sanghoon and Michelle in 2019 when she worked for Hope Women's Center, a Phoenix-based, multi-site crisis center for women. Now she's the Executive Director of CASA of Floyd County, Indiana, where she's applying the trauma-informed lens as an advocate for foster children. 

When applying the trauma-informed lens in a service setting for childen rather than women, what's different? Lauren answers this question, but more intriguing is her observations of what is the same when applying the trauma-informed lens in different contexts. 1. Understand how trauma has affected you personally. 2. Be prepared for long-term ministry with those you serve. 3. Look for the small wins along the way, and make the time to celebrate them.

As a bonus, Lauren shares her own self-care strategies as a busy mom and executive director. For those who have a tendency to over-function when stressed, you're going to want to give this episode a listen!
