In the latest episode of our podcast, we delve into a topic that resonates with many but is often overlooked: high functioning trauma and PTSD. Briannne Davis-Gantt, our host, opens up about the hidden struggles faced by individuals who appear to have it all together on the surface. They may be successful in their careers and maintain an active social life, but beneath that exterior lies a complex web of unresolved trauma that can lead to burnout and emotional distress.

High functioning PTSD is characterized by individuals who have experienced significant trauma but choose to suppress it rather than confront it. This suppression can lead to a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, and difficulties in relationships. Brannne shares her personal experiences, revealing how childhood neglect has manifested in her adult life, and emphasizes that trauma doesn’t just disappear; it remains trapped in our bodies, waiting to be addressed.
