Understanding Trauma – What it is & Why it Matters

Understanding Trauma – What it is & Why it Matters

Everybody seems to be talking about trauma and triggers, but what does “being traumatized” or “experiencing a trigger” really mean? Having a bad day, feeling upset or uncomfortable is not trauma. Experiencing something that renders you unable to function the way you previously functioned is.

Trauma is not linear or logical and is stored in the body and brain subconsciously as well as consciously. Working with a coach, counselor, therapist, or member of the clergy who is trained in, and understands trauma is essential if you want to heal! Why? Because even the most loving, kind, talented and caring individual can inadvertently cause harm if they don’t understand trauma.

YES! Both Lora, and today’s guest, Trey Malicoat, are trained in trauma.

About Lora

Attorney, speaker and Burnout & Betrayal Recovery Coach, Lora Cheadle believes that betrayal uncovers the truth of what’s possible when we stop focusing on what was done to us and start showing up unapologetically for ourselves. She helps women rebuild their identity and self-worth after infidelity so they can reclaim (or find for the very first time) their confidence, clarity, and connection to source and create their own kind of happily ever after.

About Trey Malicoat, MS

In the aftermath of emotional devastation, Trey Malicoat is a beacon of unwavering hope. For 26 years, he has been leading individuals and communities from the darkness of trauma toward the liberating embrace of joy, peace, and purpose. Therapist, crisis responder, nonprofit director, healthcare executive, professor, author, and motivational speaker, Trey’s mission is to empower human hearts to rewrite their stories of pain into narratives of resilience.

Trey has witnessed the impact of trauma firsthand, from national tragedies like Columbine, 9/11, and the Pulse nightclub shooting where he provided trauma response and site-directed care, to leading nonprofits serving youth and families scarred by violence and grief, amassing an intimate understanding of trauma.

This fueled the creation of the Restoration Model for Emotional Healing and the Restoration Academy– a transformative process for liberating limiting subconscious beliefs, and personal suffering, and creating lives of profound peace. Many describe the intensive experiences of the Restoration Model as "rebirths," allowing them to finally thrive, unbound from the shackles of past wounds.
