This is Pt 2 of my conversation with Crissy as we step back into the early days of PTSD diagnosis. Pt 1: on Apple Podcast or Here
Ever wondered how to navigate the complexities of PTSD and domestic violence? Join us in this special summer hiatus of the Wednesdays with Watson podcast as we revisit some of our most impactful episodes from the inaugural season. Over the next two months, I'll share my journey of healing, highlighting the immense role my church, community, counseling, and faith have played in my transformation over the past four and a half years. Additionally, Crissy, a returning guest, offers her heartfelt insights and challenges as a caregiver for someone with PTSD, providing a beacon of hope and understanding for others in similar situations.
Together, Crissy and I dive deep into the power of support systems, the critical importance of safe spaces, and the necessity of grace and forgiveness in the healing process. We confront the tough realities of dealing with trauma and PTSD, including the unintended side effects like dishonesty. Our candid discussions aim to illustrate that with judgment-free support and a strong community, individuals can rise above their past behaviors and realize their true potential. Crissy's bravery in sharing her story, despite being shy and introverted, serves as a testament to the transformative power of honest communication and mutual understanding.
As we navigate the intense feelings of shame and the challenges of sharing personal stories publicly, our reflections emphasize the importance of fighting against hopelessness with faith and the belief that healing is achievable. The episodes also explore the need for reframing questions to foster safe environments for trust and vulnerability. As we prepare for exciting new content and format changes in September, this hiatus is an invitation to revisit these pivotal episodes and witness the unwavering faithfulness that has guided our journey. Join us as we offer hope, validation, and a reminder that you are seen, known, heard, loved, and valued.
