DIANA'S STORY
DIANA'S STORY
What do you do when your 12-year old son suffers a traumatic bullying incident, becomes unstable and begins to spiral dangerously into what no-one-knows? We were completely lost.
Now twelve years later – twelve grueling years that were filled with uncertainty and pain – he is now in college, living independently, achieving academic success, and doing better than we could have ever dreamed. I have learned so much about him, about trauma and, especially about myself and the role that traumatic and untenable experiences have also played in my life.
TRAUMA TALK PODCAST SERIES
THE TOLL OF TRAUMA AND THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A NEW BEGINNING
THE TOLL OF TRAUMA AND THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A NEW BEGINNING
Understanding how traumatic events can result in suffering, from mild to severe, and how one event could so drastically alter the human brain, body and mind – and how a new balance and life can eventually emerge. All this has been the object of my dedication to finding strategies that became solutions during those twelve years. Our conversations are filled with real people sharing real stories about the lessons they learned from their traumatic experiences and experts talking about evidenced-based training programs and the array of national resources available to all of us. These are the subjects of our Trauma Talk Podcast Series.

MAKING MEANING OUT OF TRAUMA
CONVERSATIONS:
MAKING MEANING OUT OF TRAUMA
We can have a meaningful life, we can be the hero of our own story. We can learn to steer through those sometimes-turbulent waters and face our own trials and challenges amid the stress of our daily lives.
And yes, for many of us, we have experienced and had to deal with real trauma, those stressors that have left their marks on our souls that we often struggle to acknowledge, and feel uncertain as to how to find ways to integrate these experiences in order to make them a meaningful part of our story.
Our podcast conversations will help you to make meaning out of your traumatic experiences.

"It tells the story of my son and his journey from deep despair during years of being bullied to thriving beyond anything we could have imagined.
It conveys the heartache, and sacrifices that were made to save his life, and the determination, fearlessness, and love we needed to summon to create a space for his healing."
