In this episode I speak with Trauma Recovery Coach and Spiritual Mentor Sam Garcia. We share deeply our own trauma that has led to challenges in our lives, especially in relationships. We share many of our tips and strategies on how to recovery from trauma so you can stop living in the past and experience more emotional freedom. We unpack the 4 protection mechanisms that we use to adapt to our trauma as children and how these "protection mechanisms" are no longer serving us because they are preventing us from connecting with others in authentic ways. We share ways to start to unlearn these mechanisms so you can begin to live more of your authentic self.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
