What is a "Trauma Reaction"

Welcome to the first ever full episode of the Growth from Darkness podcast! This week the hosts Hrisanthi Dokos and Amanda Blackwood dig into what a trauma reaction is. But to fully understand a trauma reaction, it’s important to understand what ‘trauma’ is and where it comes from. Listen in as they talk about personal experiences with trauma reactions, the different forms of trauma, and everything in between. There’s even an unexpected visit from a possible ice cream man? 

One’s in Australia,
One’s in America,
From near and far, coast to coast, they’re out to change the world.
