So, really [take] the time to be with that and not rush the process.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:18:06]“The depths of your suffering equate to the depths of aliveness you get to experience in life, and so, the deeper the suffering, when you heal that, the deeper the ecstasy of just breathing is.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:20:41]“Your learning was in and through [your] suffering, and now your learning is in your living.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:22:49] Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:Join the Waitlist for You Make SenseJoin the Waitlist for Navigating Your Nervous System

There comes a point in the healing journey where, once you have enough internal safety and regulation in your nervous system, it no longer becomes about just “doing the work.” You must also focus on your living. In this episode of You Make Sense, Sarah unpacks the other side of trauma and the relationships, purpose, and community that can be discovered during your post-traumatic growth period.
