Many of us Trauma Survivors struggle to stay in a place of being happy. Why? Because we do not feel like we deserve it, but we so do!!! My guest and I talk about happiness. What is it really? How do we get it? How do we KEEP IT!!! Being happy has to be a conscious practice for trauma survivor because it is so easy and comfortable and familiar to be unhappy, sad, depressed, anxious! Oh, we do that so well! You need to listen...

Also check out @boom_dat-nigga1x song "Lately" and my interview with him coming soon!
