About this listen
In this short explainer episode we'll go over what we cover on the show, how the content is presented and why. TL;DR: If you want to just jump into the episodes that interest you, you'll find useful information, but the best way to use this podcast is to listen to the episodes in order.
We've organized the show into four core areas that are crucial for complex trauma recovery:
Pillar 1: Somatic Work – Building your Regulated Base
Developing the foundation of physiological safety you need to tackle everything else.
Pillar 2: Self-Relational Work – Making Friends with the Inner Chaos
Working with shame and the inner critic to build a better relationship with yourself.
Pillar 3: Cognitive Processing – Making Meaning Out of the Mess
A combination of psychoeducation and narrative re-framing that sets the stage for processing your past.
Pillar 4: Relational Skills – Rejoining the Human Race (Gently)
Learning how to fill in your relational skill gaps and trust others - and yourself - in relationships.
Each month, we present an episode from each pillar, one every week - because the healing process is non-linear - so you get skills you can use across all areas. We also build on previous episodes each month - because the process of recovery also needs to be progressive - delivering "walk before you run" skills and concepts.
