3. Ghosts of the Past and the Wounded Hero

In this new podcast episode, we'll dive deep into childhood traumas and their impact on adult life. We'll explore the classification proposed by Jungian analyst James Hollis, which consists of two types of trauma — overwhelming trauma and deficiency trauma — that can leave an indelible mark on our psyche.Each of these traumas can trigger specific psychological defense mechanisms. By understanding these reactions through analyzing adult behavior, we can identify the root cause and potentially address it — or choose not to. That's what we'll discuss in this episode.
