Speaking of Trauma episodes

  • Complex PTSD (cPTSD)

    In the very first episode of Speaking of Trauma, Chad and Heather dive deep into Complex PTSD (C-PTSD) — what it is, how it’s different from PTSD, and how it shows up in their lives. This is a raw, real conversation about the impact of long-term trauma, emotional dysregulation, and the day-to-day struggles people with complex trauma often face.

    They break down:
    ✅ The difference between PTSD and C-PTSD
    ✅ Common symptoms like flashbacks, avoidance, and trust issues
    ✅ How childhood trauma and ongoing abuse shape the nervous system
    ✅ Their personal experiences living with complex PTSD
    ✅ Why validation and self-awareness are critical parts of healing

    Whether you're living with C-PTSD, love someone who is, or just want to better understand trauma, this episode offers insight, compassion, and some laughs along the way.
