In this episode of Trauma Is Real, Sarah is answering some listener questions about trauma, worthiness, anxiety, parenting, and building relationships. The conversation highlights that healing is a journey that often requires support and connection with others. Questions answered in this episode:

​"I've been through a lot growing up, and sometimes I feel like I'm too 'damaged' to have a healthy relationship. How do you even begin to believe you're worthy of love when your past keeps trying to convince you otherwise?"

​"Anxiety is something I carry with me constantly — especially at work, where I feel like I have to be 'on' all the time. ​Do you have any tips for managing anxiety when you can’t just step away or shut down?"

I'm a parent trying to love my child through their own trauma, but I worry I'm not doing it right. ​How can we show up for kids who are hurting, especially when we're still healing ourselves?"

"Trusting people feels impossible sometimes, and I find myself pushing people away before they even get close. ​How can someone with a traumatic past start building real, meaningful relationships again?"
