This is a collection of past interviews I’ve done with everday people who’ve experienced trauma and trauma healing and who bravely share their personal stories. It’s here as a resource for you as you manage your own self healing journey.

Before becoming a trauma recovery coach, I interviewed lots of folx about their life stories, which inevitably brought up tales of trauma and trauma healing. (I’m a former technical writer and mass communications nerd!) Many of these interviews are timeless and can teach us important lessons at various points in our healing journeys. They also influenced my decision to become a trauma recovery coach so I can help others heal.

So, I’ve compiled the trauma-healing related interviews here for you to browse. I hope you find something that helps.
