I'm back with my good friend Dr. Mark McNear to chat about recovering from trauma. I know this can be such heavy stuff, but stick with me - there's hope! In this encouraging convo, Mark shares vulnerable stories and practical advice for trauma survivors and loved ones supporting them. We talk openly about the healing journey, faith perspectives, being patient with ourselves and others, and more. Mark stresses that trauma recovery takes time. I know that 10 years sounds daunting, but we have an eternally patient God guiding the process. Lean into community support and give yourself tons of grace. This is a marathon, not a sprint! If you're in need of trauma-informed care or just want to better understand this critical issue, don't miss this compassionate discussion. Mark leaves us with wisdom and inspiration. Reach out anytime if we can help further!
