EPISODE 8: Why the COPE PROJECT Was Formed Featuring: Shannon Rogers Simpson, Halifax County VT Cooperative Extension Project Coordinator 1. What exactly is COPE, and why did VT choose their Cooperative Extension arm to run it?Shannon Rogers Simpson (Halifax Co. VT CE):“COPE” stands for Community Outreach and Prevention Education. It was created to support community well‑being through resilience-building, mental health awareness, and educational support. Shannon explains that VT chose the trusted Extension framework because it already has an established presence within local communities—like Halifax County—where residents know and rely on Extension agents for credible, non‑clinical guidance on health, safety, agriculture, youth services, and more. Leveraging that existing trust helps COPE reach deeper and faster. 2. What is the mission of COPE?Shannon outlines the mission:Strengthen community resilience through education, awareness, and proactive prevention.Support mental health and well-being in rural areas where services may be limited.Build local capacity by training volunteers and partnering with schools, faith groups, and county agencies.Facilitate equitable access to resources, ensuring everyone has the support they need to thrive. 3. What programs does COPE offer?Shannon highlighted several key initiatives underway in Halifax County and beyond:Peer Support Training: Equipping local volunteers, teachers, and community members with active listening skills and techniques for crisis de-escalation.Youth Resilience Workshops: School-based sessions covering stress management, healthy habits, and self-care.Community Resilience Events: Pop-up clinics and “COPE Fairs” that bring together mental health professionals, community organizations, and educational outreach in one space.Resource Hubs & Toolkits: Online directories curated by VT Extension offering toolkits, videos, and materials on topics like substance misuse, suicide prevention, stress relief, and parenting.Local Support Circles: Drop-in sessions hosted monthly—whether at the library, community center, or Extension office—designed to foster connection and reduce isolation. Shawn's Perspective:“As a community leader and advocate, I'm seeing COPE rapidly build a culture of openness around mental health—breaking stigmas by integrating prevention work into everyday spacesShawn credits Shannon Rogers Simpson for personally guiding him through the COPE Project's wide range of resources. Her one-on-one training in evidence-based models like Botvin LifeSkills, ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) education, and parenting interventions has equipped him to be extremely effective in community and institutional settings.Because of that training, Shawn is now successfully implementing COPE-based programs inside correctional institutions, building trusted relationships, and collecting evidence-based data that is helping reshape how we support returning citizens. This effort is not only changing the narrative around incarceration and reentry—it's expanding the COPE Project's reach in powerful, measurable ways.

It's not just for schools—these are life skills we all need to navigate trauma, conflict, grief, addiction, and daily challenges. That's why Virginia Tech, through its Cooperative Extension arm, is prioritizing SEL in places like Halifax County—where the opioid crisis has deeply impacted families.

Additionally, as a Peer Recovery Specialist, a Certified Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) professional, and Certified in ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences), I bring a comprehensive approach to training that considers the whole person. My experience and certifications have allowed me to understand not only the technical skills required for success but also the emotional and psychological factors that can impact an individual's performance and well-being.Being certified in ACEs has given me a deep understanding of how early childhood experiences can affect behavior and decision-making in adulthood. This knowledge has allowed me to approach training with greater empathy, ensuring that all team members feel supported and empowered, regardless of their background or challenges.My DEI certification and ACEs training, combined with my background in peer recovery, inform my holistic approach to developing talent and fostering a workplace culture that is inclusive, supportive, and growth-focused.In this 22-minute session, we'll explore key aspects of effective training that can make a real difference:Self-care and Safety in the Workplace – How taking care of yourself and maintaining a safe environment can increase productivity.Practical, Expansion-Oriented Teamwork – Building a collaborative culture that drives both growth and innovation.Distinguishing Between a Customer and a Client – Understanding the difference to better tailor your approach and foster stronger relationships.When and How to Upsell – Mastering the art of upselling without compromising customer trust.By integrating principles from my ACEs training, I was able to create an environment where team members could open up, engage fully, and learn in a supportive atmosphere. This not only enhances skills but also promotes a culture of mutual respect, understanding, and continuous improvement.Our country thrives on the hard work and dedication of individuals in every industry.

It is crucial that we begin to discuss the often taboo topic of trauma in our Spiritual communities if we are to support every individual's right to a grand rising. Very few, if any, people are immune from trauma, including individual experiences of abuse, ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences), poverty, medical trauma, or collective experiences of war, displacement, terrorist attacks, mass shootings, and natural disasters, to name just a few. Science of Mind and Spirit provides a strong foundation of principles to support and facilitate healing, and yet we must go beyond knowing Truth in Spiritual Mind Treatment to applying a kind of “Trauma Informed” Science of Mind and Spirit which acts in ways that promote a truly holistic healing, wholeness, and compassion in our communities.

The entire spectrum of emotions always serves us. One of our challenges, I feel, is that we hold on to them, and of course, they become dense, sit in our tissues, and create illness of one sort or another. So, mindfulness has allowed me to understand the role of emotions and that they're all quite sacred.   Thoughts On Breathing Breathwork is an incredible tool, and if that's all one has, it does incredible things for our bodies—not only emotionally but physiologically. If you hold the right nostril down and just breathe in and release through the mouth, the parasympathetic system is responsive to that.   It can help calm, bring things down, and lower anxiety. So whether we're outside or we're in a room, if we're able to use our breathing, it does wonders for us, from mindfulness, for the presence of mind and body Bullying Story I was a school liaison officer in Scarborough and worked with my partner. We had a ball. We handled all the elementary schools in 42 division, which was over 70 schools that we split between each other. We worked as a team in the high schools and elementary schools, and we were dedicated to creating human-to-human relationships. The kids would see us and call us by our first names and recognize that the stigma doesn't define the institution.

We talk about ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) at school. We take bullying head on. But there's one especially treacherous ACE that afflicts as many as 1 in 3 teens from which we shy almost completely - teen dating violence and sexual abuse. Abuse survivor-turned-activist and national touring expert Ashley Bendiksen has made it her mission to bring these widespread and uncomfortable issues out of the darkness in order to shine her light on a welcome alternative - teaching kids how to establish and maintain healthy relationships. The relevance for public education is immense because, as Bendiksen points out, traumatized kids have a much harder time learning. It's next to impossible to focus on completing assignments or taking tests when students face abuse in their home or key relationships. But few teachers and administrators have been trained how to address such sensitive topics.This is where Bendiksen comes in with her clarion call. She travels the country sharing her own powerful story of survival, and the expertise she has since developed around domestic and sexual violence, adolescent mental health, resilience and healing after abuse. Further, she points out the profound influence educators can have on young lives when they transcend the academic and begin to venture into the social and emotional minefields many of their students are forced to navigate.Some of the solutions Bendiksen outlines as a response to this complex and traumatic state of affairs sound surprisingly simple - simple enough that you may wonder why all educators aren't provided with these tools from the outset of their careers.You can find out more about Ashley Bendiksen, her library of resources and her speaking engagements at ashleybendiksen.com. "Outliers in Education" is a project of CEE, The Center for Educational Effectiveness.

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we are joined by educator, neuroscientist, and former Professor of Evolutionary Biology and Psychology at Harvard, Dr. Marc Hauser. Dr. Marc Hauser has a new book out called Vulnerable Minds: The harm of childhood trauma in the hope of resilience. You should also know this is a very adult conversation, as it deals with tough topics like childhood abuse. If you are not comfortable with such topics, you have been advised. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Dr. Marc Hauser on Trauma and Compassion Fatigue in Working with Children Dr. Marc Hauser, who works extensively with trauma victims, discusses the challenges of maintaining emotional well-being while dealing with the profound suffering of his clients. He acknowledges the risk of compassion fatigue and emphasizes the importance of self-care. Dr. Hauser reveals his coping mechanisms, including physical activity and the supportive environment of his home life. He also highlights the necessity of balancing empathy for his clients with maintaining professional boundaries to avoid becoming overwhelmed. Comparing his work to that of his veterinarian wife, he underscores the unique emotional demands of his profession, particularly when faced with physically aggressive clients. Despite the difficulties, Dr. Hauser emphasizes the importance of maintaining compassion and offering hope for a better tomorrow to those he serves. Dr. Marc Hauser on Childhood Trauma and its Impact on Mental and Physical Health Dr. Marc Hauser explains the significance of TRACEs (Trauma Response to Adverse Childhood Experiences) and RRACEs (Resilience Response to Adverse Childhood Experiences) alongside ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). He elaborates on how ACEs, identified through a questionnaire developed by Dr. Vincent Felitti, are linked to physical and mental health issues. Dr. Hauser highlights the transformative impact of understanding and addressing childhood trauma through TRACEs and RRACEs, emphasizing the importance of trauma-informed care and resilience-building strategies. It underscores the need for a holistic approach to supporting individuals affected by childhood trauma, considering both the adverse effects and potential pathways to resilience and healing. Misconception on the ACE score Dr. Hauser discusses the misconception surrounding ACE scores, emphasizing that they were never intended as individual predictors but as population measures. He explains how ACE scores were misinterpreted and integrated into policies like insurance coverage in California based on individual scores. Christopher questions the implications of ACE scores on insurance premiums and treatment eligibility. Dr. Hauser clarifies that ACE scores are not accurate predictors of individual health risks but rather reflect population trends. He compares ACE scores to heritability measures, highlighting that they indicate predispositions but not definitive outcomes for individuals. Dr. Hauser underscores the importance of understanding ACE scores as measures of experience rather than direct responses to adverse childhood experiences, introducing the concepts of TRACEs and RRACEs for a more nuanced understanding of trauma response.

Hey, Survivor! In today's show, I use an email communication breakdown to show you how you can identify and respond to red flags with healthy boundaries, after narcissistic abuse.  ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and other traumas in your life can contribute to ignoring red flags, not trusting your gut, and engaging with people who don't have your best interests at heart.   If you, or someone you know, needs to sharpen their discernment and develop strong boundaries, this episode is a must.  It validates your need to prioritize yourself and your wellbeing, as you navigate personal and professional relationships, and interact with strangers. Know who you're dealing with.  Know who you are.

Listen to our Final Episode for the Season!  Where do we first learn about relationships? Who and what teaches us about behaviors, love, hurt and all the things that we learn in and through human connection? In my opinion, it starts with our childhood.

In todays discussion, I sat down with Chris McNeil, Licensed QMHP and Mobile Therapist who's work spans from Adults to children, from mental health skill building to Community Stabilization program director. Chris is also a Certified Marriage Counselor is the founder of FamilyVersity, LLC and the lead consultant with TTP Consulting, LLC.  With everything that Chris has accomplished and is still creating, Chris shares his passion for better understanding the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences and the collective impact on the BIPOC community.

Dr John Moos, MD discusses his transition from trauma surgeon to psychedelic healer- the unifying factor being proximity to trauma. He notes the trauma he initially treated with surgery most typically occurs within a container of many other traumas- social, political and economic violence, resource scarcity, fear, addiction, intergenerational traumas, ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and others. His (to-be) wife looked at him one day and said “I wonder if it's possible to heal it before it happens”, meaning, is there a way to pre-emptively address the container of trauma before the physical trauma results as the outward explosion of inner distress. Dr Moos was hooked. He completed personal experiences with plant medicine and trainings with the Psychedelic Research and Training Institute (PRATI), California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS), and the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) for their MDMA (3,4-Methyl enedioxy methamphetamine) protocol and now runs MoosMD.com to offer service to people with psychedelic medicine. In this episode, we start with a discussion about trauma. Trauma can even be created in as simple moment as a mis-attunement with a parent as a child in a critical moment and we all experience various levels of trauma throughout the lifespan. Psychedelics can be a tool (not a panacea) to understand the impact of our history on our current, daily moment. It's the alignment and integration of your three lenses of understanding: cognition (head), somatic (heart) and embodiment (intuition). Dr Moos recognizes that psychedelics give us a chance to step to the side of our default mode network which can also be described as a type of our identity of our consciousness. Our conversation ranges to the benefits of relationship to help us access our consciousness (this is the definition of Tantra) and these relationships can be our mind to ourselves, us to our container, or us to each other. Then, we dive into the current research and legal perspectives about the various psychedelics- ketamine, MDMA, psilocybin, LSD and other plant medicines for treatment resistant depression, anxiety, stress, PTSD and others. He reviews the importance of set and setting which recognizes that intentional and introspective work versus the external recreation of these medicines when they are used in a non-monitored ‘party' state. As therapy, this is to dissolve ego boundaries to better understand yourself. We also review the chemical nature and physiological impact of these medicines including the specific activities in the brain and the impacts on our neurobiology. Is anybody damaged beyond repair? Is any person too traumatized to heal? On being asked this question, Dr Moos offers a compassionate and insightful response about the power of our neuroplasticity as well as the tremendously oppressive conditions of social, political and economic injustice and the persistent squeeze of growing pollution and climate change. We close this show with a description about the Ketamine Assisted Therapy (KAP) process and what to look for in finding a safe and insightful session. What I love about this show is that while we talk about ketamine and other psychedelics as a medicinal tool, this show is really about the nature of healing and reality.

One of my favourite people to talk "TCK" with is Tanya - she is so knowledgeable and generous with her insights. In this conversation we are talking through observations arising from the recent research she conducted with Lauren Wells around TCKs and ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). ACE scores have so much to indicate around future physical and mental health outcomes for TCKs through their adult lives, so it's an important study for all of us who are TCKs or who are working with TCKs. And it was so good to connect over our mutual care for this wonderful community. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Do you know your ACE score? The topic of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) arose in a recent interview and I wanted to expand on the reason why knowing our ACE score can benefit us in our grief work. It goes beyond knowing your childhood had trauma, because seeing a thing that happened is only the first part of the process.

The Success Equation: What's Stopping You? You Are Far More Capable Than You Know | Dr. Rick Wallace Have you ever attempted to use a tool or instrument that is broken? Even if you can successfully complete your task, it usually takes much longer and comes with a great deal of frustration. It is the same way with unhealed trauma. When potential clients come to me to help them achieve their goals, unhealed trauma is one of the most common culprits. We all experience trauma at varying degrees at different points in our lives. Many of us can process it, heal, and move on. Unfortunately, many also become trapped in the vortex of unhealed trauma. People often conceal their wounds instead of taking the necessary steps to heal; however, a wound concealed is unhealed. Trauma comes in all shapes and forms. A traumatic event can be as simple as losing a loved one, watching your parent's marriage fall apart, or watching a parent struggle with addiction. These types of trauma would be classified as ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). Each occurrence is qualified as one ACE point. Once a child reaches three or more aces, the long-term health and performance implications can be catastrophic. For instance, a child with four ACEs is 12-times more likely to attempt suicide. Childhood trauma does stop with these common events; it can also manifest through abuse and neglect. Childhood sexual abuse is a source of massive trauma, and often the victim is made to be the villain while the perpetrator is protected. People also experience trauma later in their lives through different forms of loss and physical violence, such as assault and rape. Domestic violence and intimate partner violence can also leave an individual traumatized. Imagine being crippled or paralyzed by trauma while trying to navigate the labyrinthine corridors of life on a successful level. At the very least, it will be frustrating and painstaking. At the worst, it will prove to be virtually impossible. Concealing a trauma wound does not eliminate its existence. A common quote in my line of work says, "A concealed wound is an unhealed wound. Suppose you have experienced trauma at any point of your life that is still lingering and impacting you. I would love to work with you. My Healing from Trauma program is designed to walk you through the step-by-step healing process. On June 11, 2022, I will show you how to free yourself from being anchored to your past hurts.

Let's dive into the first five ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and begin the discussion on how trauma responses show up when early adversity is present. It is foundational understanding for how we may adopt certain strategies as solutions to hard experiences.

Essential Question: Are the number of ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) a person has a predictive factor for emotional, cognitive, and health impairments? The ACE Study is the most important public health study that most people have never heard of. This podcast's mission is to change that.

If you live in a human body, this show is for you.  And if you haven't heard about Trauma Informed Care, you should learn about it now as it will change the way healthcare is delivered to our patients.  Trauma is not a specific event.  It is an experience or the way someone experiences an event.  The experience of trauma or traumatic events become part of our biology. Therefore the Trauma-Informed approach to healing is to first give our bodies the tools to deal with the negative impact of trauma.In this episode, Preventive & Addiction Medicine Physician Aimie Apigian from Trauma Healing Accelerated & I discuss The Biology of Trauma including answers to the following questions:***************- Who should listen to this conversation?  (Answer: anyone in a human body)!- What is trauma?  - Is trauma limited to major catastrophic events or ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences)?- Why does Dr. Apigian consider trauma an experience and not just an event?- How and where is trauma stored in the body?- How do we modify the way trauma has affected the body?- What are the three states of the nervous system?- When and why can therapy be harmful? - Can therapy be valuable?- What is somatic body work and how is it done?- What is calm aliveness?- Why is it so impotant to ask about experience?- How do our experiences relate to health/wellness or illness/disease?- How do we incorporate trauma-informed care into our healthcare model?***************Dr. Aimie is a Board-Certified Preventive and Addiction Medicine Physician with a Double Masters in Biochemistry and Public Health. She specializes in trauma, attachment and identifying and reversing the effects of stored emotions in the body and on our health.Having personal experience in foster parenting, adopting and then her own chronic fatigue and autoimmune issues, she has discovered that negative life experiences become our biology, not just psychology. Compromising every system in our biology, these stored emotions cause inflammation, digestive issues and contributes to all disease and aging. Stored emotions become the biggest thief to our health, happiness and aliveness without us ever knowing.A 2-time Summit Host, she is the founder and director of Family Challenge Camps, a weekend intensive for families, and founder and CEO of Trauma Healing Accelerated where she provides education and courses for those wanting to hack their survival systemsand accelerate their healing journey from trauma to achieve their best mental and physical health. Her courses include experiential courses for the general public on shifting The Biology of Trauma and a certification coach for those in a healing profession to have more tools for understanding and addressing the Biology of Trauma.For more from Dr. Apigian check out:www.traumahealingaccelerated.com***************Thanks so much for listening!  If you enjoyed the show and want to hear more, please leave a review, subscribe and share!You can always find more information on my website:www.drlexlifestylemedicine.comand....If you love the music, you can find more at:www.therealmichaelvm.com/music*****************All my love & gratitude to:my guest: Dr.  Aimie Apigian,my inspiration: my patients,my idea guy & confidence booster: Edward,my intro crew: Izzy, Lance & Lucia,my tech & equipment guy: Pop,my angel: Susie,my music & sound guy: Mike VM,my mascot: Jules, my creative director & cheerleader: Emily,my love, Michael.

"I write to claim my feelings, allowing me to do with them what I need, to affirm and sit with myself in ways I couldn't otherwise, and to inspire others." - Lorna Rose The arts have the ability to understand ourselves in a deeper way and can lead us into authentic and truthful, honest living. Sometimes what we're thinking and feeling are dark and painful but the arts can help identify those things and help us move through those things. Oftentimes when you're dealing with trauma or going through a life-altering health challenge, you think you're completely alone and the only person who knows but most of the time you're not but it could just be that no one is talking about it. After writing her story, Lorna realized she wasn't the only one struggling and in turn, helped others who had gone or were going through the same thing. Lorna Rose is a Pacific Northwest writer and speaker. Her work has been recognized by PNWA and the Oregon Poetry Association and has appeared in several magazines and anthologies. She is a former president of Write On The River, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting writers in North Central Washington and beyond, as well as on the board of the Oregon Poetry Association. Lorna is also a certified ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) speaker and has spoken publicly on finding resilience through writing, overcoming adversity, motherhood and writing, and her experience in AmeriCorps.
