Episode Synopsis

What if no one came? In this first episode of Unlearn the Trauma, I'm telling the story I've carried since I was five — the day I told my little sister to pack because I didn't think anyone was coming for us. It started with a dream about a missing child… and ended with a memory I hadn't put words around until now. I talk about hyper-independence, invisible wounds, and what it means to grow up before you're safe — including the moment I realized I wasn't being brave, I was just surviving. You'll also hear: – My reflections on Gabor Maté's insights into trauma – A sketch: The Lost and Found Department (for Children of Trauma) – A listener letter about blurry childhood memories and whether that means they're real If this episode speaks to something inside you, you're not alone.
