This was a hard episode for me to record. I recently was officially diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). For me it has been incredibly hard to navigate through life with the invalidation that I have received from those who don't know that PTSD is a more common disorder than many might realize. PTSD affects more than just war veterans. In this podcast episode I share what that looks like. This summer I was recommended the book "The Body Keeps The Score". This book is written by: Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk a researcher and trauma expert who explains what exactly happens to the Brain, Mind, and Body in the healing of trauma.
