Held at Gunpoint: Jill McMahon on Childhood Trauma and Healing

from Mentally A Badass

When Jill McMahon was a kid, a man held her family at gunpoint—an experience that would change the course of her life. Now a trauma counselor, Jill shares what it’s like to live through something so terrifying and how trauma can stick with us for years. We talk about the long-term impact of that day, how trauma shows up in ways we don’t always expect, and what healing has looked like for her. This conversation is raw, real, and a reminder that our stories don’t define us, but they do shape us.Jill's Book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=jill+mcmahon+book&crid=1Y1P78RHAKVQJ&sprefix=Jill+McMahon%2Caps%2C162&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_3_12 Connect with Us: Follow us on Instagram: ⁠@MentallyABadass⁠Join our mental health community on Facebook: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1FvMkEuAT1/⁠Check out our clothing line: ⁠www.mentallyabadass.com⁠Call Us!  407-282-2346Join our newsletter! https://mentally-a-badass.kit.com/38b8c56fc7  We would love your support! https://buymeacoffee.com/mentallyabadass Subscribe & Review:Love this episode?
