Summary

I’m joined by DFCN counselor, Sandy, as we take an on-air call from Christy from Alabama, who wonders if it’s possible for trauma NOT to impact someone’s life? Christy has been through significant trauma in her childhood, yet feels like it hasn’t really had a negative impact on her life. Is that even possible? We talk with Christy about this important subject and help her get to the bottom of whether or not it’s possible for trauma to leave you unscathed. If you’ve ever wondered about this, tune in to this important on-air session! Book a session with Sandy K. Wilda, M.A., LPC, today!

0:00.0	If somebody asked me, do you have a trauma history?
0:05.7	I think my gut would say no, because those were hard things that happened.
0:12.0	But I just don't feel like, like when you're saying it gets stuck in you, I just don't feel that.
0:24.1	Are you ready to talk to me?
0:26.3	My name is Deborah Felida and I'm a licensed professional counselor, national speaker, and author.
