The show is about the impact of trauma on individuals, families, and communities. Trauma is events or circumstances that have an adverse possibility of negatively happening to anyone worldwide. Anyone can be a potential person to experience some trauma because there are no boundaries such as age, gender, socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. Trauma can affect an individual in three ways: acute, chronic, or complex. A person who experiences a traumatic event will become a victim of trauma, leaving them to suffer psychologically and mentally.

Here at It's Real Talk, we want to reveal that the impact of trauma is a problem in communities and our listeners need to know.
