Summary

In case you didn't know, we're still making episodes that are available exclusively on Nora's Substack! - In our third and final episode in our series on childhood trauma, we take a look at the bigger picture — as in, what the heck are we supposed to do with the knowledge that what happened to us as kids can affect our health in adulthood? How can we help heal our own childhood traumas? Buckle up, folks, because this train makes stops in Rantville, Can You Believe This Burg and OMGtown. This episode was produced in partnership with: Call to Mind, American Public Media's initiative to foster new conversations about mental health; St. David's Center for Child and Family Development, which is building relationships that nurture the development of every child and family; with support from the Sauer Family Foundation, which is committed to improving the lives of disadvantaged children and their families in Minnesota. Nora also writes sad & funny books! You can buy them here. You can catch up with TTFA on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook using @ttfapodcast. Nora's Instagram is @noraborealis.

0:36.2	Is Enough. We also dropped it in this feed so you might have heard this show and I beg
0:40.8	you already like it. There are new season features, conversations about the science of
0:45.0	things like meditation and self-compassion and stories about navigating grief, living

1:06.4	My name is Kate Boller and when I was 35, my life came apart unexpectedly. I was diagnosed
1:13.3	with stage 4 cancer. I was a new mom, a professor, and imagined I had finally gotten the life
1:19.7	I wanted. Since then, I've heard from thousands of people who want a better language and a

1:34.2	you get your podcasts.
1:39.2	I'm Nora McNeerney and this is Terrible Thanks for Asking.
