Trauma is Political

Whether we like to admit it or not, trauma is inherently political. The policies and decisions made by governing bodies can significantly influence the prevalence and impact of trauma in different communities. In this episode of A Trauma-Informed Future, host, Katie Kurtz delves into the political nature of being human, especially in the context of an upcoming pivotal election in the United States. We discuss how the human experience, trauma, and wellness are intrinsically political, and how trauma-informed care calls for active participation, even in challenging domains such as politics. As a takeaway, listeners are encouraged to recognize the political roots of trauma and integrate this understanding into their trauma-informed practice for more intentional, mindful action.Check your voting details & make a plan here.Say ‘hello’ on Instagram or LinkedInCatch up on podcast episodesFREE Guide: Talking Through Turbulent TimesBook a 90 minute Strategy Session with Katie Get certified + create a sustainable practice with TRUST™ Works Interested in a keynote or consulting?
