This is week 40, and I'm taking a self-care break this week, but please this week visit my website invisiblewoundshealingfromtrauma.com, my YouTube page for past episodes, news, and events!

In this episode, I talk with Sammie Bennett who is an author, writer, and creator and lives in Winter Garden, Florida with her two kids and husband. She loves chai lattes, PBS Masterpiece shows, and walks with her wild dog. She is also a survivor of childhood trauma and hopes her stories and poems speak to other survivors. Link to Sammie's beautiful book on Amazon!

In this episode, we talk about how brain injury can happen when we are in an abusive relationship.

In this episode, continuing to highlight October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we talk about the importance of safety planning when either staying in or planning to leave an abusive relationship.

In keeping with October's theme of Domestic Violence Awareness month, in this episode, we talk about self-compassion, self-forgiveness as survivors of abuse.

This episode begins a new chapter for me! October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and each weekly episode this month will be in both video and audio format. I felt that because the subject matter is so important and sensitive, I wanted it to feel like we were having a conversation with each other. So please hop on over to my YouTube channel Invisible Wounds: Healing from Trauma and watch the...
