Your struggle is real — The importance of women talking about their trauma with Meghan Rabbitt
from Erase PTSD Now: The Podcast · host Coleen LaCosta
“Unless we talk about it, we won't get the care we need and deserve.”Trauma extends so far beyond what people are willing to talk about. People with adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are far more likely to develop substance abuse problems and attempt suicide; not to mention increased susceptibility to heart disease, diabetes, and sleep issues. The problem? Trauma isn’t talked about and far too often, women dismiss their trauma and aren’t heard by their healthcare professionals.Thankfully, Coleen LaCosta sits down with Meghan Rabbitt, editor at Maria Shriver’s The Sunday Paper, longtime women’s health journalist, and author of The New Rules of Women’s Health. Meghan shares all that her journey, experience, and research has taught her about trauma, its effect on women's health, and the importance of talking about our stories—no matter how much we think it doesn’t need to be talked about.Plus, we discuss nutrition, diet, and sleep, as well as how women can be more heard and get better answers to their health related questions, especially in a world of information. Tune in, because you won’t want to miss this one.Get In Touch:[email protected] On Social Media:Instagram: @_eraseptsdnowFacebook: Erase PTSD NowYouTube: @eraseptsdnowLinkedIn: @eraseptsdnowConnect With Meghan Rabbitt:Website: newrulesofwomenshealth.com Social Media: @meghanrabbitt#PTSD #TraumaHealing #TraumaInformedCare #MedicalGaslighting #ACEs #NervousSystemHealing #MentalHealthAwareness #TraumaRecovery #PTSDHealing #ChronicIllnessAwareness #HealthAdvocacy #ErasePTSDNow @eraseptsdnow #StellateGanglionBlock
