The Trauma Tapes episodes
- 39 min
- No Shame in Your Number
This week our letter writer is struggling with being shamed by a partner. We talk about "body count" and why we should free ourselves from any shame in this discussion!
33 min - Shame Must Heel/Heal
This week, we are with my friend Paul Chamberlain of Smart Funny Tortured. We talk about his story, and the unique take on shame that he's developed. Get ready for a radical reframe, as we consider shame as the shitty little henchmen of trauma, and think through what it would mean to make them heel.
1 hr 18 min - Snooping Shame
Our letter writer this week is struggling with some shame related to snooping. Do we all snoop? Is it something to be ashamed about? Shoule we do something about it?
39 min - Cheating ShameOur letter writer is grappling with guilt for cheating (and getting away with it). We talk about how to release this shame and whether she should come clean.38 min
- Shame Containers
Our letter writer has just had the unfortunate experience of being diagnosed with an STI. She is steeped in societal shame about sex, and we try and chip some of that away. Bonus rant about shame containers and social media.
36 min - We're back! And We're Talking About Shame
And we're back for Season 2 of The Trauma Tapes! The topic this season is shame. What is it? How does it relate to trauma? In what ways does it get in the way of healing? What do we do about it? We have been gathering letters, but before we jump into those, we wanted to dust off our microphones and record an intro episode.
39 min - Track 44 - A Year in ReviewIt's 2022, and we've been podcasting for an entire year! We take this episode to do a year in review - looking back on themes that appeared over the letters, and specific letters that we still find ourselves thinking about. We're out of letters for the moment, so we're going to take a little break. If you have a follow-up story, a new story, an idea or a question, email us at [email protected]. Thanks for listening!36 min
- Track #43 - The Thing About WorryThis week we talk about worry burnout - what it is, how to recognize it, and what you can do about it. Worry tricks us into thinking that it is productive, but it's corrosive.47 min
- Track 42 - Finding Light in the DarkThis week we talk about the darkness of this season, and what we can do to manage it! We give a mini-toolbox of what works (and of course we talk a bit about what doesn't).41 min
