SMARTER THAN TRAUMA Podcast

Send us Fan Mail The universe truly does put you in the right place & right time [to help end symptoms of traumatic brain injury]. What's TBI? Perhaps, "trauma" & how to behave around it can be something the majority automatically understand & do the "best thing" automatically. Let's see. Support the show

Send us Fan Mail WRITE IT VERBATIM FIRST LETTER IS "B" & she became associated with "beat dOWn" & the only IEP meeting where there was only a dad present. Now, this is different! TAKE NOTE Support the show

Send us Fan Mail The question was, "what are you doing now?"  Advocacy.  "What's that?" ...blah blah blah... it was clear they weren't getting it. Than the INVITATION. "I'm getting with someone Thursday in front of the MCA. Do you want to to come with?" PRINT OFF A COUPLE PHOTOS & CONSTRUCTION WILL BE DIFFERENT THAN WHATEVER YOU'VE SEEN. Writin...

Send us Fan Mail Let's start with the picnic menu.  I literally cooked for people that I didn't know that well, but were connected through people living with disability & being quite independent. Driving cars. Consultants & tech experts. Etc. Etc. Etc. Support the show

Send us Fan Mail Finally, I reported suicide, but also WHY. Last word was THEN. A transitional word or phrase. Everything connected to what I taught seems to have a final goodbye (a nod or something. It's a process) Support the show

Send us Fan Mail That's to say, "stay here," before I could say it. Then, that evolved to "don't die." You realize, you're saying, "stay here & don't die." That was a very simple direction when you're hiding. You have no question of where you should be. This is a very important CONCEPT IN SURVIVAL. What to do. What to say. Support the show

Send us Fan Mail last word : SO Support the show

Send us Fan Mail There was swerving. It's true that I have forgotten all about that convo so check the notes. It will be more of the same [behaviors] which is quite rude. Kind of cruel even. Why can't you elaborate on an idea you presented to me? Ok. Go on. It's the same thing 16, 17, 18 times. That's how I lost my mind! Make it rhyme. A TBI strategy for sure. Support the show

Send us Fan Mail I know that picture is not of apples.  It's a storage capacity to validate TBI (the storage bit) Support the show

Send us Fan Mail I mistyped "it" & wrote "is" in the Episode Title space. A sign trauma is being broken up.  Excuse me? Dating your wife? That's the punchline, now roll back in time, unwind their mindfield, if inclined. If not, stop at this spot & move until you hear 10 pops. It's essentially a 2-minute dance break. This is that adrenaline again & again &a...

Send us Fan Mail I am so unaware of how suicide is wrapped into all of this I just said it, so YES. GET IT OUT, so ONE DAY you can hear yourself. It's just gone. No grandiose gesture to know it's over. A rock & roll ending at a live show. The word FIN at an artsy film. To know education is over. Like that non-consent. It simply feels like it will never end. Support the show

Send us Fan Mail Still stuck on the number 17? Now, I described why that's an issue---the behavior being more info to show me "unsafe" to share ideas or get info from. Uses intel to do harm & can just make it up. That simplifies all of this, right? Support the show

Send us Fan Mail 3rd Quarter!!!! Of course patience can be measured since results do occur, but how much effort can be done to make up for the lack of routine, consistency and is it worth it? After meeting these two family behind-the-scenes. I'd say. YES because the student connected with me. Mentioned the name of an author. Am planting the seed for reading. Support the show

Send us Fan Mail She said, "She cooks & it's how she shares love." So her love language is feeding people! That connected to my family, faith & practicing daily what consent it. What you put in our body more or less.  Then years later, she took it back. "Using her for her food & talents." YIKES.  That was an interesting period when a child does not talk to a re...

Send us Fan Mail It's math. A clever way to get me to listen to self & my voice & not hear that voice BEGGING TO LIVE, then BEGGING TO DIE. That's the compare/contrast, life/death, black/white, good/evil, temptation/certainty & other opposites that we are in limbo with. It's creating in-between time. A DEADline (a recognition of OFFENSE against suicide). By using a word?...

Send us Fan Mail           I agree, PTSD is finally done. PROMPTING EVENT | what created the acute biological sensory reaction? [known as triggers] What happened BEFORE or antecedent? "on THIS site?" Which site? (Facebook) "Thank you for sharing all the behaviors...[not] effective" & do the opposite.  Now, I'll be sharing that event HERE Support the show
