Send us a textIn this reflective solo episode kicking off season two of When Bearing Witness, Maria Bryan shares valuable insights gained from a transformative year of conversations about trauma-informed storytelling. Join us as we reflect on lessons from the past year and tackle big questions: How do we move beyond surface-level discussions to foster deeper action? What role does empathy play in overcoming resistance to new approaches? How can we navigate the guilt that accompanies unlearning harmful practices? Whether you're new to trauma-informed storytelling or a seasoned practitioner, this episode provides both validation and actionable insights for moving forward imperfectly but intentionally in this important work.About Host Maria Bryan Maria Bryan is a trauma-informed storytelling trainer.
