In this episode, we delve into the complexities of the cumulative stress model and its impact on mental health. Join us as we explore how childhood trauma shapes our lives, the intergenerational transmission of trauma, and the concept of eternity in healing and resilience. Through expert insights and personal stories, we uncover the pathways to understanding and overcoming deep-seated emotional wounds. Tune in to learn how we can navigate these challenges and find enduring peace and strength. Quote of the week: ...There is a place in you where you have never been wounded, where there's still a sureness in you, where there's a seamlessness in you, and where there is a confidence and tranquility in you. And I think the intention of prayer and spirituality and love is now and again to visit that inner kind of sanctuary.
