Trauma, the Body, and Motherhood with Lindsey Ford

In this week’s episode, I’m joined by Lindsey Ford, trauma coach and founder of Chiron Mind Body, for an open and compassionate conversation about how trauma can show up in motherhood - sometimes in ways we don’t even realise.We unpack what trauma really is, how it can live in the body, and why it isn’t always about one big event like a difficult birth. Lindsey shares both her professional insights and personal experiences of becoming a mum, and we explore how identity shifts, stress, and even old wounds from the past can resurface during pregnancy and the postnatal period.Whether you’re a new mum, expecting, or supporting others through this season of life, this conversation is a reminder that your experiences matter, and that healing is always possible.In this episode, we explore:What trauma really means (and what it isn’t)How trauma can manifest as physical symptoms or anxietyWhy the perinatal period can bring old emotions or experiences to the surfaceThe mind-body link in trauma healingHow techniques such as EFT and BLAST can support recoveryConnect with Lindsey: www.chiron-mind-body.co.ukwww.facebook.com/chironholistichealingwww.instagram.com/chironholistichealing
