“For complex PTSD, you have to establish a relationship. And only after trust has been established can you do the trauma-focused work.” This week, Thomas sits down with Dr. Judith Lewis Herman, an author and senior lecturer in psychiatry and Harvard Medical School, to explore her groundbreaking work on the psychology and social and cultural aspects of Complex PTSD, or CPTSD. Unlike the better-known diagnosis of PTSD, CPTSD arises from prolonged, repeated trauma that erodes one's sense of self and ability to trust. So, how should we approach healing and therapy for this uniquely challenging diagnosis? Dr. Herman believes there is hope, and it comes from the healing power of relationships…a tough pill to swallow for those whose trauma arose from abusive or coercively controlling relationships. But therein lies the key to healing—a therapeutic bond where the patient's experience is validated, their safety is paramount, and trust is carefully built up through mutuality. But it's not just therapy where healing can occur. Thomas and Dr. Herman discuss the importance of acknowledgment for people who've experienced ongoing trauma and how lifting shame from victims and survivors and transferring it to the perpetrators is an essential shift with powerful healing potential. They also explore social movements, like the women's and civil rights movements, that can lead to helpful reforms and the development of new support systems for trauma survivors.   ✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

In this inspiring episode, we're exploring the powerful intersection of music and accessibility with three incredible guests: Dr. Bradley Black, a world-renowned pediatric ophthalmologist and founder of the Vision Through Music program, Makayla, a passionate young musician and student in the program, and Maykaya's mother Joann.  Dr. Bradley Black (he/him) practiced pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He is past president of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AAPOS) and the Louisiana Academy of Eye Physicians and Surgeons (LAEPS). He has served on the boards of directors of AAPOS, the Children's Eye Foundation, the Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute, and LAEPS. He received the Honor Award, Senior Honor Award, and the Lifetime Achievement Award from AAPOS and the Achievement Award, Secretariat Award, and the Outstanding Advocate Award from the American Academy of Ophthalmology. He was elected to the American Ophthalmological Society. In 2024, he received the Parks Silver Medal, the highest honor awarded by AAPOS and CEF-AAPOS. Dr. Black is active in international ophthalmology. He served on the Orbis International Cybersight Medical Advisory Board and has performed and taught pediatric eye surgery in more than thirty countries.  One of his greatest professional achievements to date is founding the Vision Through Music program of the Children's Eye Foundation, which seeks to increase the number of music teachers who work with blind and partially sighted children nationwide. He and his wife, Cindy, have two children and two grandchildren. In his leisure time, you can often find Dr. Black sailing the Gulf of Mexico on his thirty-five-foot sloop.   Makayla Alger (she/her) is a passionate student of the Children's Eye Foundation's Vision Through Music Program (VTM). From an early age, she found joy in singing and playing on her sister's keyboard. She is currently learning violin and will soon begin voice lessons through the VTM program. Makayla lives with a mutation to the TUBB4B gene, which has led to degenerative vision and bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. Over time, she has lost night vision, experienced a decrease in peripheral vision, and developed nystagmus. Her mother, Joann, vividly remembers taking Makayla to a pediatric ophthalmologist, who determined she would need glasses for life. Initially overwhelmed and unsure whether her young daughter would keep them on, Joann recalls when Makayla looked up at her parents and with a soft voice appreciatively said, “thank you.” From that moment, she never took her glasses off. Joann says the family has gotten creative to make things more accessible at home. Beyond her love of music, Makayla is also the author of “The Way I See It”, a story following Elena, a visually and hearing-impaired red fox who navigates Vermont's scenic trails using her heightened senses. Along her journey, Elena meets many woodland creatures and teaches them important lessons about awareness, kindness, and understanding. Makayla and her mom Joann hope to raise awareness about TUBB4B genetic testing, as well as encourage more research into its progression and ultimately a cure. Whether you're a parent, educator, healthcare provider, or music lover, this conversation will show you just how transformative inclusive programming can be.

'Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to be a life sentence. Not only can trauma be healed, but with appropriate guidance and support, it can be transformative'This insight comes from one of the world's foremost experts on trauma, and a true pioneer in the field: Dr. Peter Levine.He is the developer of Somatic Experiencing®, a groundbreaking, neurobiological approach to trauma healing that he's spent over 50 years developing. With doctorates in both Biophysics and Psychology, Peter has helped redefine how we understand trauma in the world not as a disorder of the mind, but as a deeply embedded, hyperaroused stress response in the body that calls for a body-oriented approach to healing.His best-known work, Waking the Tiger, has become a classic in the field of trauma and has been published in over 29 languages. He's also the author of 'Healing Trauma', 'In an Unspoken Voice', 'Trauma and Memory', and his most recent book, An 'Autobiography of Trauma: A Healing Journey' which is a deeply personal look into his life and his journey of overcoming trauma.Dr. Levine's work has now been taught to over 30,000 therapists in more than 42 countries, he's been recognized with multiple Lifetime Achievement Awards, and he continues to teach and consult internationally.In my interview with Dr. Levine, we explore his core understandings of trauma, debunking the myth that it's a brain disorder or a psychological weakness. Instead, he frames trauma as the body's natural response to overwhelming experiences that were never fully processed or completed.We discuss:The relationship between trauma and the body, and why true healing doesn't happen solely through cognitive insight, but through deep bodily integrationA powerful story from his book 'In an Unspoken Voice', sharing his experience of being hit by a car 20 years ago. He walks us through how he processed and released the stress response in his body, which helped him mitigate the onset of PTSD and served as a real-time application of his life's work.The process of writing his most recent book and the deeper intention behind sharing his personal journey.How men, especially those conditioned to view the world through a lens of threat or mistrust can begin to return back to safety, openness, and intimacy in relationship.Dr. Peter Levine's work has been absolutely foundational in my own life, helping me understand trauma and how to work through my own personal experiences with chronic anxiety and depression.I see this episode as an important one for any man who's seeking a deeper understanding of what trauma is, and how to begin orientating back to the body and learning to work with it.It was an absolute honor to speak with someone I consider a true legend in the field. I deeply commend Dr. Levine's resilience, dedication, courage and his unwavering commitment to bringing these revolutionary insights to the world at a time when few people even understood what trauma was.—Connect with Dr. Peter A.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2017 conversation with Jimmy Webb. ABOUT JIMMY WEBBJimmy Webb emerged as a superstar songwriter and arranger in 1967 when two of his songs – The 5th Dimension's “Up, Up and Away” and Glen Campbell's “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” - were among the five nominees for the Grammy's Song of the Year award. He went on to write a string of major hits for Campbell, including “Wichita Lineman,” “Galveston,” "Where's the Playground Susie,” “Honey Come Back,” and many others. Additionally, he penned “MacArthur Park,” which was a hit for a diverse range of artists, including Richard Harris, Waylon Jennings, Tony Bennett, Andy Williams, and Donna Summer; “The Worst That Could Happen,” which was a Top 5 hit for The Brooklyn Bridge; “Didn't We,” which was recorded by Thelma Houston, Frank Sinatra, Diana Ross, and Barbra Streisand; “All I Know,” which became a Top 10 hit for Art Garfunkel; “The Moon's a Harsh Mistress,” which has been recorded by Joe Cocker, Judy Collins, Linda Ronstadt, and Josh Groban; and “If These Walls Could Speak,” which was recorded by Glen Campbell, Amy Grant, Nanci Griffith, and Shawn Colvin. Others who've covered material from the Jimmy Webb songbook include Diana Ross, Dusty Springfield, Nina Simone, The Four Tops, Roberta Flack, The Temptations, The Association, Tom Jones, Dionne Warwick, Cass Elliot, Harry Nilsson, Nancy Wilson, Cher, Bob Dylan, The Everly Brothers, Nick Cave, John Denver, Kenny Rogers, Sheena Easton, David Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Michael Feinstein, R.E.M., Aimee Mann, America, Aretha Franklin, Isaac Hayes, Peggy Lee, Bette Midler, James Taylor, Carrie Underwood, Dwight Yoakam, and The Highwaymen (consisting of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson), who took Jimmy's song “Highwayman” to #1, earning him a Grammy for Country Song of the Year. As an artist, he has released more than a dozen albums. One of the most celebrated songwriters on the planet, Jimmy is the only individual to win Grammy awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Great American Songbook Hall of Fame. Additionally, he has received ASCAP's Lifetime Achievement Award, the Influential Songwriter Award from the National Music Publishers Association, and the Academy of Country Music's prestigious Poets Award. In 2015 he was named among Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time. Jimmy's memoir, The Cake and the Rain, details his formative years and early career through 1973. It's available now from St. Martin's Press.

"Comedy writers learn early on that we have a high degree of anonymity," writes podcast guest Alan Zweibel in his memoir Laugh Lines: My Life Helping Funny People Be Funnier. "Our words are spoken publicly by others who often have famous faces. Or by unknown people on their way to having famous faces." As one of the founding writers on Saturday Night Live, Alan's words were given voice by a cast of virtual unknowns, all on their way to becoming famous faces, eventually earning worldwide acclaim as some of the most iconic comic performers of their generation. Over the course of his 50-year career, he has penned jokes for dozens of Borscht Belt comedians and written for some of SNL's most memorable characters (such as Gilda Radner's "Roseanne Rosannadanna," John Belushi's "Samurai," and Garrett Morris's "Chico Escuela"), and helped to craft SNL producer Lorne Michaels's now-legendary appeal to invite the Beatles to appear on the show for the standard artist fee of $3,000.  Alan is the recipient of five Emmy Awards for his work in television, which in addition to SNL also includes "It's Garry Shandling's Show" (which he co-created and produced), "The Late Show with David Letterman," and "Curb Your Enthusiasm." He is the author of 11 books, including the 2006 Thurber Prize-winning novel The Other Shulman, and Bunny Bunny: Gilda Radner—A Sort of Romantic Comedy, and six off-Broadway plays. He also collaborated with Billy Crystal on the Tony Award-winning play "700 Sundays," and with Martin Short on his Broadway hit "Fame Becomes Me," and co-wrote the screenplays for the films "Dragnet," "North," "The Story of Us," and "Here Today." He joins us on the podcast to reflect on a singular career as one of our leading comedy writers and humorists—and a wickedly funny body of work that has earned him an honorary Ph.D. from the State University of New York, and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Writers Guild of America, East.  Learn more about Alan Zweibel: Website Facebook Instagram Bluesky Please support the sponsors who support our show: John Kasich's Heaven Help Us (now available for pre-order) Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Heaven Help Us by John Kasich Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount

For in the kaleidoscope of human experience, where the boundaries of reality blur and the mysteries of the cosmos beckon, there exists a phenomenon that challenges the very fabric of our understanding—the emergence of walk-ins, starseeds, and hybrids.   Through detailed explanations and hypnotic regressions, this groundbreaking book confronts profound questions about the nature of reality, consciousness, and our place in the cosmos.  Sheila is a soul-exchange walk-in who entered the body of a thirty-eight-year-old mother with three children, and experienced instantaneous healing from documented illnesses. She emerged with new spiritual gifts and memories, transforming her life completely. Sheila is the founder of the Conscious Awakening Network and SpiritWay Wellness. She is an author, an international speaker, event coordinator, multidimensional life coach, holographic alchemist, light language linguist, regression therapist, shamanic practitioner, and spiritual teacher. 
Baraba is an author, a licensed psychotherapist (recently retired) and a current hypnotherapist and regression therapist. She is the co-author of Cosmic Convergence: Journeys of Walk-Ins, Starseeds, and Hybrids and considered one of the world's leading authorities in the field of UFOlogy and extraterrestrial contact. Barbara has been a featured lecturer at dozens of conferences throughout the US and abroad. She has given hundreds of interviews for television programs, including Ancient Aliens among many others. She has received five Lifetime Achievement Awards from five major conferences for her work in giving help and support to experiencers of ET contact and furthering the field of UFOlogy. www.barbaralambregression.com www.sheilaseppi.com www.walk-ins.org www.spiritwaywellness.com www.the galactic alliance.org www.consciousawakeningnetwork.org
