How does a person heal from childhood trauma?

Listen to author Marie-Claire Amuah who explores the impact of unresolved childhood trauma in adult life in her debut book ‘One For Sorrow, Two For Joy’ on our ‘Connecting Communities’ Podcast.


When we first meet Stella, she’s an eight-year-old girl who lives with her mum, dad and older brother Sol.

Stella is a bright young girl, loved by her friends and teacher Ms Wilks. But at home she is considered insolent by her father and experiences physical and mental abuse at his hands. So does her mum but her brother does not. 

This book explores the journey from trauma, to healing through the power of friendships and self-love.

The music in this episode is made exclusively for AKADi Magazine by Kyekyeku and the Super Opong Stars and is called 'Life No Dey Easy'.
