Are We Addicted to Our Trauma? with Scientist/Actor Dr. Micah Johnson KBLAAM-19600

from First Things First With Dominique DiPrima · host KBLA Talk 1580

On this pod we talk trauma. What is it? Where does it show up? Are we defined by it? What are the "perks" of such harm? How do we break the cycles? Dr. Micah E. Johnson is an associate professor in the Department of Family Medicine at the UCLA Geffen School of Medicine. He specializes in trauma, behavioral health, and community-driven research. He is an award-winning scientist and activist who has trained over 20,000 individuals worldwide on topics related to trauma, mental health, social justice, and peacebuilding. He is also a SAG actor/producer and comic who uses his art to educate people on mental health. https://www.instagram.com/doctormicahjohnson/ https://www.companyofangels.org/redharlem https://www.instagram.com/diprimaradio/
