Season 2 Episode 5 of the Trauma-Informed Church Kid podcast

This is our first How of Hurt episode of the season! In this episode, we seek to understand trauma better. We will define trauma, find out what separates it from unpleasant or difficult events, learn about the signs and symptoms of trauma, examine the feedback loops and neuroplasticity that either reinforce or repair trauma, and discover the multiple types of trauma -- including all kinds of church hurt.

I hope you will join me on this journey to find resurrection on the other side of deconstruction!
