Podcasts about healing from trauma

When Vesuvius Rumbled in her deep, Pompeii's Blue skies were a lie. Sometimes our gut warns us to leave, but we stay. Other times, it calls us to act, but fear keeps us frozen. And in both moments, the mind often steps in—trying to quiet what the body already knows. This week on The Poet (delayed), we explore what happens when we ignore that deep inner rumble. Why we override our intuition. Why we stay when we should go. Why we hide when we're being called to step forward. And what it might look like to finally trust the wisdom of the gut over the noise of the mind. I'd love to hear what you have to say about the episode including thoughts on the poetry and the topics that were discussed. You can email me at poetdelayed@gmail.com.

God speaks to each of us as he makes us, then walks with us silently out of the night. These are the words we dimly hear: You, sent out beyond your recall, go to the limits of your longing. Embody me. Flare up like a flame and make big shadows I can move in. Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final. Don't let yourself lose me. Nearby is the country they call life. You will know it by its seriousness. Give me your hand. I was joined this episode by Chris and Elise Jones and Ali Talbot. We gathered in the warm, book-lined library at Chris and Elise Jones' home and just talked. We read Rainer Maria Rilke's poem Go to the Limits of Your Longing, and from there we let the conversation unfold naturally. We talked about suffering — not in a heavy, hopeless way, but in the way you talk when you know that pain and beauty are woven into the same thread. We explored what it means to surrender to life's difficulties instead of resisting them. We laughed about childhood memories, tofu meatloaf, and the glory of Saturday morning cartoons. We got real about trauma, caretaking, creating from heartbreak, and what it means to show up for each other when life breaks us open. This episode is about sitting with what's hard, about finding connection through vulnerability, and about how creativity — whether it's poetry, baking, music, or just making something out of pain — can save us in quiet, powerful ways. It's also about joy. Tangents. Belly laughs. Tears. Root beer ice cream sandwiches. Give it a listen. It's not polished, but it's real. And sometimes that's exactly what we need most. I'd love to hear what you have to say about the episode including thoughts on the poetry and the topics that were discussed. You can email me at poetdelayed@gmail.com.

    Army Chaplain Major Paul Belcher joins us to share his groundbreaking insights into the intersection of trauma and spirituality within military contexts. Through his unique journey and experiences, Major Belcher developed the Traumatic Impact Spiritual Assessment Tool, a much-needed approach to help service members navigate the spiritual repercussions of trauma. His tool aims to bridge the gaps left by existing methods and emphasizes the significance of spirituality beyond organized religion, offering a fresh perspective on maintaining combat readiness and preventing further harm.      We explore the metaphorical rebar and heartwood as symbols of the spiritual and emotional strength that service members need to endure life's challenges. Chaplain Belcher sheds light on the critical role of spiritual foundations, especially for those from disadvantaged backgrounds, and how they contribute to personal and unit resilience. He shares practical advice for military commanders and medical professionals on preparing themselves and their units for the uncertainties of military life. Through personal stories and experiences, we uncover how maintaining one's core beliefs and unique identity can fortify resilience amid adversity.      Our conversation also addresses the profound impact of personal values like compassion, particularly in medical crises where chaplains play an essential role. Chaplain Belcher illustrates the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, integrating spiritual care with medical intervention, to offer holistic support to those in need. His firsthand experiences highlight the invaluable role chaplains play, from supporting families in high-stress situations to helping individuals rediscover hope and purpose.

I'm joined once again by Dr. Ken Yeager for an honest and insightful conversation about healing from trauma. And why it's so much more than just “moving on.” As a journalist and trauma survivor myself, I know firsthand how deeply these experiences can affect both our bodies and our minds.In this episode, Dr. Yeager and I dig into the science behind trauma and stress, exploring how unresolved pain and constant fight-or-flight responses can show up as physical symptoms—everything from gut issues to memory lapses. We talk about the myth of the “quick fix,” and the importance of understanding how nutrition, nervous system regulation, and holistic wellness all play a part in true healing.I open up about my own healing journey, including what it's taken for me to unravel old patterns, the obstacles I've faced, and the ways I've learned to ask for help. Dr. Yeager helps map out what recovery really looks like. Highlighting why it's a team effort, why vulnerability matters, and how patience and compassion are essential.If you or someone you care about is living with the aftermath of trauma, I hope our conversation offers guidance, encouragement, and real hope. You are not alone, and there is a path forward—one step, one day at a time.Some important takeaways I wanted to share:Healing is Holistic: Trauma has a real, measurable impact on physical health, including inflammation, chronic illness, and even memory loss. Addressing trauma requires looking at emotional, nutritional, physical, and environmental factors, not just quick fixes or medications.The Recovery Journey is Nonlinear—but Mapped: True healing isn't instant. Dr. Yeager shared a roadmap of about 18-24 months, with stages of crashing, building hope, setbacks, and ultimately acceptance and growth. Understanding this timeline can help set compassionate expectations for ourselves and others.Self-Awareness is the Foundation: Early warning signs of stress and trauma (jaw clenching, sleep disturbance, emotional numbing) are our body's way of communicating. Being honest with yourself and willing to ask for help opens the door to real, lasting change.Moments00:00 Stress, Inflammation, and Health Risks04:04 Visualizing Emotional Impact on Body09:12 "Balancing Holistic and Western Medicine"10:45 Balancing Health and Medication16:39 Aging, Trauma, and Cognitive Decline20:05 Neurotransmitter Activity in Hyper-vigilance22:45 Understanding Memory Gaps and Trauma24:51 Intentional Healing Through Determination27:31 "Challenges of Executive Dysfunction"31:45 Recovery Challenges: 120-180 Days36:57 Understanding Neurodivergence and Addiction Struggles40:05 Empowerment Through Understanding and SupportSpirit of EQ We hope you enjoy the podcast.

This week on Mums on Cloud Nine, we're getting honest about something that affects more women than we often realise: unhealed trauma and how it quietly shapes our relationships, careers, health, and sense of self. I'm joined by Adele-Marie Hartshorn, the coach, therapist, and somatic strategist who steps in when mindset work just doesn't cut it anymore. Adele explains how trauma isn't always about big, catastrophic events. Sometimes, it's simply the absence of the nurturing, presence, or stability we needed growing up. From people-pleasing to burnout, anxiety to chronic health issues, Adele breaks down how our nervous system responds to life's emotional load, and why we can't simply think our way out of it. We talk about what nervous system dysregulation actually looks like, how trauma can stay trapped in the body, and why traditional talking therapies might fall short for some. Adele also shares how somatic healing helps us process what's unresolved and gently move back into regulation. As someone who has worked with Adele personally, I can say her work is powerful, practical, and deeply transformative. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, self-doubt, or simply struggling to feel present in your own life, this conversation might be the nudge you've been waiting for. We also explore the subtle ways trauma can show up in motherhood, leadership, and relationships, and why learning to regulate your nervous system is a game-changer, not just for your wellbeing but for everyone around you. Mums on Cloud Nine is your go-to destination for inspiring content that empowers women to build a life and career they love.

Join me and Sherrie Love as we read her poem, Descension and then have a conversation about the slow, brave work of reclaiming ourselves—of getting to know who we are again after life has scattered the pieces. We talk about the struggle, the beauty, and the quiet joy of becoming whole. And we draw wisdom from the sun—how it simply shines, without apology, without hesitation, no matter who is beneath its light. What would it mean for us to live like that? Descension Something is shifting. It has felt heavy and loud in my soul for a while. It twists in my stomach And lurches upward Squeezing my heart Tighter and tighter until I can't breathe Then it weaves its slimy black sludge claws Into my mind And plants seeds of doubt, fear, hopelessness Until they bloom Oozing the thick tar of my descension What does it mean? Where does it come from? I thought I was through I thought I was in the clear Didn't I already learn this lesson? And I notice the giant black infection Of fear expanding, enveloping me In its unrelenting grip What am I afraid of? Fear, what are you trying to show me? I move toward it now I embrace it back Shining every shred of light I have left Toward it Begging it to tell me what it wants And I see Tiny pricks of light Piercing through the thick, black darkness I left my light, my energy, my joy, behind Somewhere on the trail Like a lost glove Being blown away by the wind Left to dance its way through the wilderness Is it even still mine? Did someone find it? Did they pick up And turn it over, curious who it belonged to Did they take it home and try it on? Did something about my essence affect them in some way? I miss it Why do I keep doing that? Giving away my light? When all I'm trying to do Is shine on those I love On those who need a light in their own darkness Because I know how deeply painful and dark it is To wander this world in the dark Alone Maybe I overwhelm and blind with my light because I feel so desperate to connect Yet somehow, my light is too bright, too glaring, too intense Even for those who, at first, thought they liked basking in the glory And I remember that even the Sun, who shines unapologetically, gets too hot sometimes And may unintentionally burn you But she keeps on shining And we love her for it And we welcome the clouds and the rain and night and the winter And when they come, we miss the Sun And long for her return For the pink spring sunrise For the glowing summer sunsets And bright autumn mornings I wonder if the Sun misses me too when the night comes I wonder if she feels lonely and scared too Maybe she sees me As much as I see her I'd love to hear what you have to say about the episode including thoughts on the poetry and the topics that were discussed.

In this raw and deeply personal episode, Tanya Tenica joins Ali Mehdaoui for an honest conversation about the lasting effects of sexual abuse, the journey to healing, and the intersections of mental health, spirituality, and cultural norms. Together, they unpack how trauma shapes relationships, how silence fuels generational pain, and how empathy and open dialogue can light the path to restoration.From confronting shame to navigating spiritual transference and setting boundaries, this episode sheds light on what survivors face — and how communities can rise to protect and support.

Some conversations only happen on the road—miles slipping by, the hum of tires, and the kind of quiet that invites reflection. In this episode, I drove with my friend Jason Wheatley to Sun Valley, Idaho, where he was delivering paintings for an upcoming art show. As we drove, we talked about his journey into art, the impulse to create, and the ways beauty can emerge from both solitude and connection. It's a meandering, thoughtful exchange—about art, life, and the things we're still trying to understand. After dropping off his work, we made a stop at Hemingway's grave and memorial, a silent moment that seemed to echo the themes of the trip: legacy, voice, and what we leave behind.

In this conversation, I talk with my friend Christian Jones—a local musician and songwriter who'll be performing at Torchlight on June 21. We explore the tension between daily responsibilities and the need to stay connected to our creativity. Christian opens up about how songwriting and playing guitar have helped him navigate life, stay emotionally grounded, and build meaningful connections with others. We reflect on how creativity not only heals us, but also creates ripples that reach those around us. The episode ends with Christian sharing his moving original song, A Little Less Blue I'd love to hear what you have to say about the episode including thoughts on the poetry and the topics that were discussed.

In this episode of The Poet (delayed), I sit down with my friend Chris Hales to unpack a journey that pushed him to the edge—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Chris took on the Grand Canyon rim to rim to rim, a grueling 50+ mile hike through one of the most unforgiving landscapes on earth. He spent months preparing, training his body and mind for the challenge ahead. But even with all the planning and readiness, nothing could fully prepare him for the brutal terrain, the heat, the exhaustion—and the moments of doubt that crept in along the way. What emerged from the struggle, though, was something far greater. Chris shares how the hardship brought him closer to the people he hiked with, including his wife, and how those shared miles—step after painful step—forged memories and connections that will last a lifetime. It's a story of endurance, humility, and discovering the strength that comes not just from finishing, but from walking the hard road with people you love.

Send us a textIn this episode, we get real about the counterfeit comforts we each reach for when life feels too heavy—whether that's emotional eating, perfectionism, scrolling, or even throwing ourselves into ministry. We open up about how our personal stories shaped these patterns. Heidi shares how growing up with alcoholic parents taught her to cope through control and performance, while Christina talks about how her mom's trauma from WWII in Germany created a legacy of anxiety and over-functioning in her own life. These habits may look harmless, but they often mask a deeper ache we're trying to numb.We also talk about how family history and cultural messages feed these false comforts and how even “good” things—like spiritual routines—can become a way to avoid real connection with God. But there's hope. Scripture invites us to bring our struggles into the light and let God meet us in the very places we tend to hide. Instead of running from discomfort, we're learning to pause and invite God in—right in the middle of our mess. Tune in and join us as we unpack the beginning of this healing journey.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org
