Trauma isn't just about the big, obvious events. It's not only about war vets, abusive relationships, or catastrophic loss. Trauma is the stuff our bodies never fully processed — the shock, fear, or helplessness that got stuck in our nervous systems. And here's the kicker: it doesn't live in the past. It lives in your biology, right now. We're joined by Dr. Aimie Apigian, double board-certified physician, addiction and preventative medicine expert, and author of The Biology of Trauma. With her background in biochemistry, public health, somatic experiencing, and trauma therapy, Dr. Aimie is uniquely qualified to help us understand how trauma gets stored in the body — and why we can't just think our way out of it. This is the kind of conversation that flips the script on “pushing through” and gives you permission to see that maybe your body isn't betraying you — maybe it's protecting you. And maybe the exhaustion, migraines, or that sense of stuckness aren't a mindset problem at all. They're trauma patterns. Understanding this is not just science, it's liberation.

Matt and Eric dive into the not-wholly-terrible-but-also-utterly-useless JAWS 2 - a hit sequel that taught Hollywood the wrong lesson.
What if the real story of your trauma isn't the one you keep telling yourself in your head — but the one your body has been holding all along? In this solo episode, G shares how trauma patterns show up in our daily lives (especially as mothers, makers, and women holding it all), and why breaking cycles requires more than mindset work. Drawing on focalizing training and the wisdom of teacher Nick Werber, she will reveal how our most obvious trauma response is often how we treat our own bodies — ignoring signals, pushing past limits, or abandoning ourselves when life feels full. This conversation weaves together personal stories (including her own rocky “back-to-school transition”), trauma-informed practices, and reminders that your body is not a machine — it's more like a garden that needs tending. When we stop abandoning ourselves and start listening to the body's wisdom, we begin to re-pattern, restore, and rise. Listen to this episode to discover: Why the most obvious trauma response is how you treat your body The difference between the story in your head and the story your body is telling How generational cycles and trauma show up in motherhood What I learned from crashing hard during my “back-to-school” transition (and how I found rhythm again) The ballerina-on-pointe metaphor: why balance is hundreds of tiny adjustments, not one rigid plan Why your nervous system needs seasons of rest, rhythm, and renewal — just like nature Practical ways to “resource as you go” so you don't abandon yourself JOIN US: Join G in Charleston to tune into your womanly wisdom, inner knowing, and soulful sisterhood: https://www.gervasekolmos.com/chs-retreat Mamas- it's time to reset, resource and rise together: Mothers Rising 6 week circle begins October 15th: https://www.gervasekolmos.com/mothers-rising Mentioned in this episode: Connect with Nick Werber - nicknwerber.comNick Werber | Integrative Coach | Instagram: @nickwerber_ Previous episode with Nick Werber (here) Follow me on Instagram: @gervasekolmos Sign up for my newsletter: gervasekolmos.com Quotes to Share: “The most obvious trauma response is how we treat our bodies.” – Nick Werber “Your body is not a machine.

Als er talloze generaties aan traumatische herinneringen in ons vastzitten, dan zit er zeker ook een meervoud van generaties aan troost in ons lichaam. Kunnen we van trauma naar troost bewegen? En als dat kan: hoe doen we dat? In 'Zo zingt de pijn' onderzoekt schrijver Aya Sabi of intergenerationeel trauma om te zetten is in intergenerationele troost. Een poëtische, helende zoektocht, uit het hoofd en in het lijf, naar een gevoel van veiligheid in het hier en nu.

A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. Growing up in the South Side of Chicago is no easy path, and for Samia Young, the early chapters of her life were filled with violence, instability, and heartbreak. Born into a family plagued by substance abuse and domestic violence, she witnessed things no child ever should. Samia is the guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. “I had what many would describe as a tumultuous, abusive, and traumatic childhood,” Samia recalls. “There were days I truly didn't know if I'd make it out alive.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Her neighborhood was one of many that frequently made the news, as Chicago's South Side has long carried a reputation for crime, poverty, and struggle. For Samia, the dysfunction inside her home only magnified the challenges outside of it. “I would be lying if I told you that I always knew that I would make it out. That I never felt like throwing in the towel,” she admits. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Life on the South Side To understand Samia's story, it helps to know the environment she grew up in. The South Side of Chicago is one of the city's three major sections and is geographically the largest. Rich with cultural history, diverse neighborhoods, and deep community ties, it is also an area marked by stark contrasts, where middle-class and affluent families live only blocks away from neighborhoods struggling with poverty and crime. Areas like Hyde Park, home to the University of Chicago, and Kenwood or Beverly are often considered desirable places to live. But other parts of the South Side, such as Englewood and Grand Crossing, have been hit hard by systemic issues, unemployment, and gang violence. These were the realities shaping Samia's childhood. A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. “Growing up there, you learn to survive more than you learn to live,” she reflects. Hearing the Gospel for the First Time Amidst the turmoil, a flicker of light appeared when Samia was 14 years old. During one of the darkest seasons of her youth, she first heard the message of Jesus Christ. “The Gospel offered me a glimpse of hope,” she shares. “It was something that felt so far removed from my life, yet it stirred something deep inside me.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. That spark, however, was not enough to erase the wounds of her childhood. As she transitioned into her teenage years and early adulthood, the pain she carried pulled her into cycles of instability. Poverty, brushes with the criminal justice system, and feelings of being lost became part of her reality. A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. “The wounds from my childhood made it difficult for me to truly know my identity and build the life I wanted,” Samia explains. A Turning Point at 24 Everything began to change at 24, when Samia had what she describes as a moment of clarity. Instead of letting her past dictate her future, she made a decision: to rebuild her life from the ground up. “It wasn't some overnight transformation,” she admits. “It was slow, painful, and full of setbacks. But it was also the most important decision I ever made.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Through perseverance, faith, and a relentless commitment to change, Samia began reshaping her path. She pursued education, steadied her personal life, and slowly replaced destructive habits with constructive ones. From Trauma to Triumph Today, Samia stands as a licensed attorney and business professional in Ohio. After moving from Chicago to Minnesota at 15, and eventually relocating to Cleveland in 2023, she has carved out a life that once seemed impossible. A Life of Meaning After a Bad Start in Chicago. Her transformation is not just about professional success, but about reclaiming her voice, her identity, and her future. Her story resonates across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and beyond. “I want people to know that your beginning does not have to define your ending,” she says. “Yes, I started in trauma. Yes, I lost myself for a time. But I also found my way back.” Samia's Story in Print Her powerful story is captured in her book, Samia, Come Forth!—available through her website samiayoung.com.

*Kathi* ist frisch gebackene Mama, Trauma-Expertin und systemkritische Pädagogin aus Wien. Mit ihrer *traumapädagogischen Brille* revolutioniert sie den Schulalltag und zeigt, wie ein reguliertes Nervensystem die Grundlage für erfolgreiches Lernen bildet. In dieser inspirierenden Folge teilt sie ihre Erfahrungen aus dem *Traumapädagogik-Master* und erklärt, warum traditionelle Smiley-Pläne bei traumatisierten Kindern versagen. Stattdessen setzt sie auf die *Haltung des guten Grundes* und fragt: *Was möchte uns das Kind mit seinem Verhalten sagen?* Erfahre, wie Kathi gemeinsam mit ihrer Kollegin das gesamte Schulsystem umkrempelte - weg von Frontalunterricht hin zu individuellen Lernplänen und einer entspannten Klassenatmosphäre, in der jedes Kind sein Potenzial entfalten kann.
Ein autoritärer Staat, revolutionäre Gruppen, ein entfremdeter Vater und eine Tochter auf der Flucht – One Battle After Another führt mitten hinein in ein erschreckend realistisches Zukunftsszenario der USA. Paul Thomas Anderson entwirft mit seinem neuen Film ein Polit-Drama, das sowohl als Generationenporträt als auch als Abrechnung mit faschistischen Strukturen funktioniert. Mit Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn und Regina Hall hochkarätig besetzt, zeigt der Film, wie persönliches Trauma und politischer Widerstand ineinandergreifen.
Old injuries don't just leave physical scars — they rewire your stress system, making everyday situations feel more threatening than they really are Stress hormones act like fuel that keeps fear and pain responses locked in place, which helps explain why anxiety and chronic pain often linger Trauma survivors who recover better use brain networks more efficiently, allowing them to separate safe cues from real danger and avoid living in constant high alert Simple steps like improving sleep, getting morning sunlight, and gradually retraining your brain with safe exposures help reset stress circuits and restore calm Nutrition and energy support, including healthy carbohydrates and creatine, strengthen your brain's resilience and give you a better foundation for healing after trauma

What if the popular narrative about trauma is incomplete? What if trauma isn't just a psychological phenomenon, but a fundamentally biological process that gets encoded in your cells, mitochondria, and nervous system? Dr. Aimie Apigian is a double board-certified physician in preventive and addiction medicine who's revolutionizing how we understand and treat trauma. Her groundbreaking new book, "The Biology of Trauma," reveals the hidden physiological mechanisms behind trauma responses. In this conversation, she explains where traditional talk therapy falls short, how trauma creates a feedback loop of oxidative stress and cellular shutdown, and her innovative approach to healing trauma from the inside out, starting with cellular safety before diving into the emotional work.

So many women in midlife are running on fumes—stretched thin, burned out, and downplaying what they've experienced just to make it through the day.

That's why in this episode, I'm sitting down with trauma and biology expert Dr. Aimie Apigian to uncover how unprocessed trauma can manifest in the form of physical symptoms.

IN THIS EPISODE How the body biologically absorbs experiences of trauma Recognizing adaptations and better managing reactions The importance of finding safety in the whole body How your lifestyle affects your emotions Why effective healing from trauma takes time and work Stress biology vs. trauma biology All about Dr. Aimie's new book: The Biology of Trauma QUOTES “Anything that overwhelms our capacity to respond becomes a trauma for our body. And those changes impact us down to the cellular level– the immune system level. They are what become our diseases often decades later.” “The greatest impact on their life was me teaching them a few simple somatic self-practices that could shift their inner state to one safe enough within seconds.” “It really shifted my perspective to know how much more alive I could be– I don't even know the possibilities because I've never lived that. I've never been that. I've never been that version of myself. And it keeps me in a place of curiosity, it keeps me in a place of learning.”RESOURCES MENTIONED

What if the symptoms you're battling aren't just about your thyroid, hormones, or even your genetics, but about unresolved trauma living in your body? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Aimie Apigian to explore the fascinating and often overlooked connection between trauma biology, nervous system regulation, and thyroid health. We break down how unresolved experiences (ones you may not even think of as trauma) can keep your body stuck in survival mode, fueling autoimmunity, hormone imbalances, and even chronic disease. Dr. Aimie explains the five steps of the trauma response, why traditional talk therapy often falls short, and what it really takes to rewire your nervous system for healing. You'll also hear us dive into how perfectionism, stress patterns, and unresolved childhood experiences can show up decades later as Hashimoto's, hormone chaos, or even cancer—and what to do if you're tired of chasing protocols that never seem to work. If you've ever wondered why your labs look fine but you still feel awful, this conversation will change the way you think about health, healing, and your own biology.

What if healing from trauma wasn't just about your nervous system, but also your immune system? What if science could show us that your body is capable of renewal—faster than you think? In this mini episode, Dr. Aimie Apigian is joined by Dr. Jeffrey Bland, founder of the Institute for Functional Medicine and one of the leading voices in integrative health. Together, they discuss why trauma isn't just psychological—it's biological, affecting the nervous, immune, and metabolic systems in ways that can keep people stuck in cycles of fatigue, pain, and emotional struggle. Dr. Bland shares groundbreaking research on immune rejuvenation, including how certain ancient foods like tart buckwheat can reverse signs of immune aging in as little as 90 days. Paired with Dr. Aimie's insights on trauma biology, this conversation offers hope that no matter your past, your biology is not a life sentence. In this episode you'll hear more about: Why trauma acts like a “dimmer switch” on joy and vitality The powerful crosstalk between the immune and nervous systems How trauma biology accelerates immune system aging—and how to reverse it Clinical trial results showing a 47% reduction in immune age in 90 days Why the immune system renews every 90–120 days and what that means for healing The three pillars of immune rejuvenation: polyphenols, microbiome integrity, and Omega-3s Why trauma healing is about applying the right tools at the right leverage points Trauma doesn't just live in your past—it can live in your cells. But the science shows us that your immune system and nervous system can both be renewed. This episode is a reminder that healing is possible, and your body knows the way forward.

After October 7, Rabbi Michael Holzman wasn't just mourning—he was mobilizing. A project he had already spent years developing. Discover how one rabbi is using ancient wisdom, civic rituals, and interfaith grit to heal our fractured democracy. In this episode, we sit down with Rabbi Michael Holzman, spiritual leader of the Northern Virginia Hebrew Congregation and founder of the Rebuilding Democracy Project. Together, we explore the fragile yet vital intersection of faith, politics, and civic life, tackling tough questions with grace, insight, and a touch of humor. From personal stories of family division over politics to deeply Jewish perspectives on democracy, Rabbi Holzman opens up about how religious communities can serve as training grounds for better civic engagement. He also shares how his own path—from a secular upbringing to becoming a reform rabbi—shaped his commitment to democratic values.
We've all had bad bosses.We might have even been one. At the very least, we've probably let people down who counted on us.We all carry burdens from our past that show up in how we lead. And we're all confronting systems that foster toxic workplace cultures where overwork and blurred boundaries are the norm, spaces that don't feel safe or generative, and where there is little to no accountability.The question we face is simple, but urgent: How do we want to lead?Our leadership can reinforce toxic systems and norms. Or we can learn to recognize our own burdens and do the work to become more aware, adaptable, and flexible. We can create spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued, even when systems feel unstable or unfair.Because leading is about deciding, in every moment, whether we respond from our burdens or from our values. And my guest today helps us reflect on those choices and decide how we want to lead through her own lived experiences with bad bosses.

In this episode of How Humans Heal, I have the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Aimie Apigian, the author of "The Biology of Trauma". This is such an important topic for everyone, and it's of great interest to me because I've been researching how trauma affects us as humans and how we can recover it for over 25 years. Sometimes in our attempt to heal, we end up just re-traumatizing ourselves. We find that there's been a reason why our body and our mind have wanted to keep everything stuffed down and to keep everything packed tightly away. There's a fear in the healing process of not even knowing if we want to look inside because of all the stuff we're afraid we're going to uncover. Dr. Apigian's intention is to help people not feel as scared about the healing process. She went through the process of healing from trauma herself, and now hopes to help people before they reach the breaking point she hit. We're here to help you!

Through raw and unfiltered discussions with experts, celebrities, thought leaders, and athletes, we uncover new perspectives on personal growth, recovery, and overcoming life's toughest challenges.My Story:What sets my journey apart is that there wasn't just one rock bottom—there were many. From being a successful luxury homebuilder to falling into addiction, homelessness, crime, and eventually 27 mugshots and prison, my life was in absolute chaos.Addiction was my temporary escape from childhood trauma, but it only led to destruction.It wasn't until I hit the lowest point imaginable that I finally found true freedom, redemption, and purpose. After an unexpected early release from prison in 2017, I walked 300 miles back to Dallas to turn myself in—only to be miraculously pardoned and told to “pay it forward.”And that's exactly what I've been doing ever since.My MissionI believe that rock bottom is not the end—it's a stepping stone to something greater.My goal is to redefine what "rock bottom" means by helping others rebuild their Spirit, Mind, and Body. On M2 The Rock, I speak openly about trauma, addiction, recovery, and the power of transformation. I don't shy away from topics like:✅ Trauma & Addiction – Understanding the root causes✅ Self-Sabotage & Mental Health – Breaking negative cycles✅ Codependency & Enabling – How relationships impact recovery✅ 12-Step Programs & Spiritual Healing – Finding true freedom✅ Religious Trauma & Personal Growth – Healing from past wounds"Everyone Is An Addict."Whether it's substances, work, validation, or negative thinking, we all have something we struggle with.But recovery is possible, and transformation is real.

Have you ever wondered why you or someone you know stayed so long in an abusive or toxic relationship? Well, there is actually a deeper, psychological reason for this rather than just 'putting up with it'. In this week's AMM Minutes, I sit down with Frankie from Frankie's Therapy to dive deep into the complex psychology of abusive relationships. We explore why people stay in harmful relationships, touching on the significant roles that childhood experiences and our nervous system play. We discuss trauma bonds, the gut-brain connection, and the physical reactions, such as IBS, that often accompany these relationships. Together, we underscore the importance of education and awareness as the first steps to breaking free from toxic relationships. We also talk about the need for a safe environment for healing, the crucial role of therapy in building self-worth, and the process of addressing childhood wounds. Join us as we unpack these intricate dynamics and offer valuable insights for those looking to reclaim their lives. What we will cover: 00:00 Understanding the Psychology of Abusive Relationships 00:10 The Role of Childhood and Nervous System in Trauma Bonds 00:44 The Illogical Nature of Staying in Abusive Relationships 02:39 Physical Reactions and the Brain-Body Connection 04:25 Creating a Safe Environment for Healing 05:29 Breaking the Cycle: Steps to Change Relationship Patterns 06:02 The Importance of Therapy and Secure Relationships 08:14 Addressing Triggers and Communication in Relationships 12:38 Steps to Rebuild Self-Worth After Trauma Bonds 13:19 Integrating the Shadow Self for Healing Key takeaways:

Stress isn't just something to “manage” — it's a signal, a teacher, and often, an invitation to look deeper at our health, our choices, and our lives. In this solo episode, Darin reframes stress not as an enemy, but as a dashboard light pointing toward misalignments in our nervous system, environment, relationships, and purpose. Drawing on science, practical tools, and personal insight, Darin reveals how layered stress silently drains our vitality — and how to transform it into an ally for growth, healing, and deeper contentment. Whether it's hidden trauma, toxic environments, unresolved conflict, or the modern distractions constantly pulling at our attention, Darin lays out a roadmap to stop the leaks and reclaim the energy already within you.

In this episode, Kelly Chase sits down with Dana Kippel—author of A New Force: Plasma, Consciousness, and the New Human Potential—to dive into her vision of plasma as a multidimensional, living intelligence that carries both consciousness and information. Dana opens up about her path as an experiencer, the role of downloads and intuition in her work, and why embracing the feminine side of plasma is key to unlocking human potential. We talk about what it means to navigate reality through both science and spirit, how vulnerability can become a superpower, and why so many people are resonating with her message online. This conversation is raw, inspiring, and full of insights that reframe what it means to live in a participatory cosmos. Music for Cosmosis is by Michael Rubino.

Retired police Sgt. John Mattingly sits down to share the unfiltered truth about his decades in law enforcement. From working narcotics and violent crimes to running postage interdiction, Mattingly has seen it all — and some of those cases still haunt him to this day. In this powerful interview, he opens up about his early years as a police officer, the dangers of working narcotics cases, and the emotional weight of investigating violent crimes. He also talks about the unique world of postage interdiction and the major arrests it led to. But the case that changed everything was the Breonna Taylor raid, where Mattingly was shot and nearly killed. He discusses how that night ended his career, how the media shaped the public narrative, and what he says really happened during the raid. This is a raw, honest conversation about the realities of police work, the trauma that comes with it, the impact of media coverage, and what life is like after walking away from the badge. #JohnMattingly #BreonnaTaylorCase #LawEnforcementStories #PoliceInterview #TrueCrimePodcast #MediaTruth #NarcoticsUnit #LockedInPodcast Thank you to BLUECHEW for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://bluechew.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout to get your first month of BlueChew FREE & pay five bucks for shipping.

Pastors and ministry leaders are carrying more than ever—and too many are doing it in silence. Dr. Mark Mayfield (author of The Mental Health Handbook for Ministry, professor, clinician, and former pastor) joins Alan to demystify mental health in the church, unpack the real difference between coaching and counseling, and give you a practical playbook for when struggles walk into your office… or show up on your staff.

Trauma, screens, and why so many leaders are being mis-labeled Burnout's bottom layer: dissociation/avoidance—and how to interrupt the loop Boundary basics for pastors (why “I don't know—let me check” is leadership strength) How to build a staff culture of care (and discuss hard topics without guessing) Chapter Markers 00:00 — Why this conversation matters now 02:30 — Coaching vs. counseling: the simplest way to decide 05:25 — The danger of pop psychology & “quick fixes” 08:20 — Inside The Mental Health Handbook for Ministry (how to use it fast) 12:25 — High-performing families & hidden pressure 16:30 — Where churches are actually making progress 19:10 — Staff discussions you should be having (and how) 20:40 — Depression in leaders: signs & next steps 32:30 — ADHD or attention trained by trauma & screens? 36:00 — What sits under burnout—and how to respond 40:50 — A word to lonely leaders: you don't have to know it all Resources Mentioned Book: The Mental Health Handbook for Ministry — Dr. Mark Mayfield (Baker) Site: MentalHealthMadeSimple.life (discussion guides & tools) Mental Health Made Simple: For the churches Stay Forth: Coaching for healthy + high-impact leadership About Dr. Mark Mayfield Clinician, professor at Colorado Christian University, author, speaker, and former pastor.
