Trauma is all around us, but we don't talk about it as much as we should. But if you're a human being, you've experienced trauma in some form or another, and it's important to have a place to share your experiences. On this episode, we're talking to Debra Barnes-Hamilton about why we need to normalize discussing trauma so those who experience it don’t feel so isolated, as well as tips for how to open up and talk about your personal trauma.

1. Why it’s important to talk about trauma more often
2. The importance of sharing your trauma with the right people
3. Tips on how to open up and begin discussing traumatic experiences.
