In case you missed it! You do not need to become a whole new person to heal. You're already wonderful just the way you are. So much of my work is about understanding why we respond the way we do - and finding small, doable ways to feel more connected to ourselves, to other people, and to the parts of life that still feel good. Even when things are hard. Especially then. That’s why I’m happy to share that I recorded an hour-long conversation for the Heal Your Trauma Summit, happening online October 19–25. It’s free to attend, with conversations from more than 60 speakers, including Richard Schwartz, Stephen Porges, Sharon Salzberg, and Terry Real. Topics include stress and the nervous system, relationships, self-compassion, boundaries, and different approaches to trauma recovery. And hey! You do not need to watch 60 hours of interviews and turn healing into another full-time job. Pick a conversation that speaks to you. Get curious. Take one useful thing with you. Small counts here, too. You can register through the link in my bio. - @mc.phd
