Hello everyone and welcome to Saturn Returns with me Kaggy Dunlop.

This is a podcast that aims to bring clarity during transitional times where there can be confusion and doubt.

So trauma is for everyone. People get so pissed off of me when I say that.

They're like, well, if trauma's for everyone,

then that means nothing, that means absolutely nothing.

And like, no, it doesn't, it just means

if you're human to some degree,

you're gonna have trauma.

So let's learn how it works,

because it's not like they have trauma, I don't it's like yeah you actually do

Today I am joined by the wonderful Brit Frank who was introduced to me by our mutual friend Mo Gouda and I wanted to have this conversation with Brit because when we go through our Saturn return or any transition in life

We are often faced with our own own coping strategies.

Perhaps our traumas are coming to the surface,

our own unhealthy mechanisms,

and that can start to create a lot of shame

because we feel we are the reason we are stuck

that there is something inherently wrong with us that we are broken in some way and

what I love about Brit's work is that she really unpacks that so that you can realize that actually you're not broken, you're functioning just as you're supposed to, but these parts of you are acting in a way that are trying to self-preserve to protect you.

It's just about understanding them and unpacking them and uprooting what's underneath

so that we can actually transition through and become the next

version of ourselves. Brit's work is around trauma. She is a psychotherapist

and trauma specialist and her work is particularly focused around understanding the language of our body as well as our mind in order to heal ourselves and work through our problems and past hurts.
