On this episode of Health Gig, Tricia and Doro have a fascinating conversation with author (and beekeeper!) Wendy Willis Baldwin. Baldwin has just released her debut novel, The Sisters We Were, which is inspired by her relationship with her sister (who lost over 300 pounds). They discuss the burden of secrets, how trauma can both divide and unite, and how her new novel is a story not of despair, but of redemption and healing.

MaryCatherine McDonald is a PhD researcher, coach, consultant, and author specializing in trauma, stress, and resilience. She talks to Doro about her new book, Unbroken: The Trauma Response is Never Wrong, and explains the science behind trauma in our lives. She discusses how shame relates to trauma, how people are adaptive, what a "relational home" is, and how it is never too late to heal from traumas – no matter when they happened.
