Hello Everyone & Welcome Back to the RealPositiveGirl Podcast!
Thank you so much for joining me again!
Happy Thursday!
This week's theme for the podcast is: Trauma
This week we are going to speak about trauma. I thought it would be helpful to go over how it can manifest in our lives, what can cause traumatic events to affect us so badly & what we should do to recover properly.
Here are some notes from today's episode:
- Today’s episode is going to be pretty simple. I just want to chat with you about some comforting reminders for those of us that have gone through trauma or possibly something you could say to someone you know is suffering from past or current traumas.
- The first thing I want to remind you of is that your trauma matters. No matter if you know someone else that has gone through something you consider worse, yours still matters and it is very important. Even if no one knows about your trauma, it still matters & you deserve a space to talk about it, if you choose to. Don’t let anyone tell you different.
- You are allowed to struggle. You do not have to measure up to anyone else’s or even your own high expectations. No matter how long ago your trauma was.
- You’re not alone. There are other people out here struggling & going through difficult times, so you don’t have to be awkward about your own struggles.
- What happened was not your fault or what you deserved.
- You don’t need permission to exist.
- It’s ok to have bad days, weeks or months. Healing isn’t linear.
- There shouldn’t be any shame in asking for help.
- You have the right to acknowledge your feelings without having to justify those feelings.
- You’re allowed to opt-out of overwhelming environments.
Please share this podcast with anyone that may need this encouragement!
