In today’s episode of Trich Talks, Barbara reads from her memoir, The Trichster Diaries. She reflects on a surprising moment of comfort—discovering that playing with her split ends could be a way to manage her urges for the first time. Barbara also revisits a painful memory: the sting of being called out, the rush of fleeing, heart pounding, shame pressing in. This episode is a raw and honest look at healing, hiding, and the complex space in between.Purchase a signed copy of The Trichster Diaries here or unsigned from Amazon— This episode is brought to you by HabitAware.
