The word 'trauma' has crept into our everyday language, to the point where it's become ubiquitous in describing any kind of adversity or struggle.

In this episode, Kath&Mish restore trauma to its proper significance with long time trauma counsellor and yoga practitioner Maria Papadontas.

Maria is particularly interested in treating trauma expressed through the body (somatic) and discusses her challenges in maintaining her own sense of health and happiness as she helps those around her.

Raw, revealing, and essential listening.
