The damage from trauma in our lives can last generations. Sometimes we may not even recognize how it creeps in and takes over our families through our patterns and behaviors.
The inspiring Roma Norris, mother of two, parenting activist, facilitator and Hand in Hand Parenting consultant, talks to us on the Show today all about the subtle forms of trauma– known as ‘complex trauma’– that creep into our lives.
Roma helps us to understand and recognize complex trauma in our lives, and gives us practical ways to prevent our trauma patterns from entering our homes, and how to truly recover from past traumas.
This episode is about healing, so that we don’t cause more hurt to our families.
THREE TAKE-AWAYS:
- An understanding of complex trauma and how it might be cropping up in your life
- Ways our trauma patterns sabotage our parenting and how we can work with them
- Practical guidance on how to recover from the impact of trauma on your day to day life
