Talking Points: Reconnecting with your kids in the aftermath of being in survival mode. Tackling chores as a household. Recognize that any “system” is only as good as the person managing it. (Consider giving that responsibility to someone who is capable of implementing, training and following up with the chores) Everything we face is either an opportunity to change or opportunity to let it defeat you. Having a victim mentality or a victory mentality. Creating boundaries that enable health and healing.  Healing isn’t linear, it has ups and downs.  Bio: Heather M.

Talking Points: Managing the anxiety that comes from PTSD.  Changing and growing on the emotional side of things. Understanding that everything (tasks, conversations, events) is much harder than it once was. Shifting my verbiage from negative self-talk into positive self-talk and carrying it with me throughout the day. Flooding-Be aware of how it affects you. Game changer-Celebrating small wins, or what might seem like an insignificant win. It takes constant energy and effort to give yourself grace as you heal. Stephanie Richards talks about the grief and loss associated with long-term traumas. The deep sense of loss, loss of self and how to move forward emotionally. Quotes: "I needed some guidance to change my perspective and help me grow on the emotional side.” "Don’t quit trying to heal" "We felt a sadness deeper than any sadness we’ve ever felt."  "I couldn’t explain the depth of sadness that I felt. And it seemed like I carried it with me for years."
