My guest on this episode is Katie Maloney author of the book Cake Pops and Coffee: A New Conversation About Trauma; How to Laugh, Cry, and Love Your Whole Story. 

 I have to admit that I’ve looked through podcast episodes before for something to listen to, and when I’ve seen an episode that is going to cover any aspect of abuse, particularly sexual abuse, I’ve thought No way am I going to go there - I don’t need anything heavy or depressing or yucky, and I choose something else. So while you are of course always welcome to choose to listen or not listen, I invite you to try the first 15 minutes of this episode before making your choice, because the way Katie talks about trauma is different. Katie concentrates on the fact that you can move forward from trauma and learn to live a beautiful life. She shares what she has learned about identity awareness, setting standards for yourself, and learning how to receive. Katie is an author, speaker, and trauma survivor coach, and her goal is to remove some of the heaviness around conversations about trauma and to start new conversations that feel the way I felt when reading her book - like I was in conversation with a cherished friend. I did not experience abuse myself but wow have I learned and grown from the tools Katie shares in her book. Katie is changing the way we talk about sexual assault, dispelling the stigmas, and bringing to light the powerful joys of healing your story. This conversation may be triggering for some of you, which I completely understand -  I send you love around your own trauma experience. If you need help, I deeply encourage you to find someone to talk to whether it be a friend, a therapist, or a coach.
