Traumagility

Parenting is hard. It's even harder with trauma when your inner wounds come up in the form of your younger self and you find yourself acting like your children. In this episode I take you through a guided meditation to help you decipher what it is your trauma is saying, so that you may reset and integrate that part into your life to find emotional regulation, safety, and peace. This is important to understand to separate your emotional reactions from your kids' emotional reactions when they trigger you. I also discuss having parenting "time outs" and what these look like.

Too often people stay silent in their struggles due to fear: fear of feeling like a failure, fear of rejection, fear of being judged, or fear of the unknown.Jerome's story is all too familiar to approx. 72% of males in the United States who don't seek mental health treatment, with the percentages higher for African American males. In this episode Jerome discusses what it was like for him dealing with work stress, toxic relationships, impulsive life decisions, military life, unsupportive environment, stigmas, anxiety, and depression all while attempting to solve issues on his own, and where it led. Jerome describes hitting rock bottom with a mental break that almost cost him everything. He reached out to a friend who could connect him with help and since then he has thrived. He shares with us the fear of seeking help, the most effective skills and tools he learned, and how his life is now all from making 1 phone call.

Dr. Denis Marier, ND, MA is a registered Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine with a practice focus in mind-body medicine, ecopsychology, trauma and inherited tramua, naturopathic oncology and naturopathic palliative care. Denis is committed to educating and empowering individuals on their wellness journey. Much of his healing has happened through sharing his story in Sacred Circles, group and individual therapy.

Denis also hosts a podcast entitled "Groomed". Established in late 2020, he leads his listeners on a journey of his own personal experience of being groomed by a sexual predator in conversation with his oldest friend, John Conlon. These series of episodes demonstrate how pre- mediated the grooming process is with Marier’s authentic recall of the seemingly innocuous circumstances in the beginning. By sharing, we can alert young kids, parents, teachers and other vested allies in the hopes of preventing this type of thing from happening again. Opening up the dialogue in this forum makes the topic less taboo and provides a safe place to access resources.

In this episode we dive into:

1. 1 in 6 males are sexually abused in their lifetime

2. De-stigmatizing male sexual abuse

3. Denis' story of how he was groomed by a highschool teacher and the outcome

4. Spreading awareness and healing for this population
