Meaning Making and Intergenerational Trauma - Keith Kurlander & Will Van Derveer - HPP 117

What exactly is trauma? How many people actually carry trauma in their bodies? How do we know the actual source of our trauma's when it's not a specific event that happened? What if the source of one's trauma is intergenerational—passed down from previous generations?
