We've all heard the sayings — "Time heals all wounds." "You just have to get over it." "You can't love someone until you love yourself." But what if these common beliefs about trauma and healing are doing more harm than good?

In this episode of Beyond Survival: A Pathway to Peace, trauma-informed life coach Naomi Stanchfield takes a gentle, informative deep dive into 14 of the most common myths about trauma and recovery. She explores where these ideas came from, why they persist, and what modern psychology and somatic science reveal instead.
