As you may tell by the name of this episode, the nature of content in this episode can be highly triggering. Please do not proceed if topics of childhood trauma, sexual abuse or PTSD are triggering for you.
We talk about:
- Childhood sexual abuse and how to begin healing
- Repressed memories: what are they and how do you know you have them?
- Avoiding repeating trauma patterns in future relationships + with your own children
- And so much more
While Jess and I did our best to remain transparent, open and calm throughout this episode, it was incredibly challenging for the two of us.
We felt called to talk about these taboo issues, to reduce shame around them.
