Become A Trauma Informed Coach
Are you a coach who's afraid to use the "T" word (Trauma) on your calls? Or you that trauma is a thing, that it happens, but not much more (because you’re not sure if you want to know more)? If any of this resonates (or you just want to know more about how, as coaches, we can support clients carrying trauma), this podcast is for you. Bringing our lack of understanding into the light is necessary to support ourselves—and clients—during calls. Now coach, I am NOT HERE to induce fear or paralysis in your coaching—bleh. I am here to help you 1) see what you’re potentially not seeing, 2) reaffirm 10000% that you absolutely can do something about it, and 3) reinforce the notion that we all start somewhere (it’s ok to be where you’re at right now)! There is SO MUCH you can do to support clients carrying trauma—as well as understanding the limitations we have as coaches—so that they can receive the care they are in search of. I believe that being Trauma-Informed is an Essential Standard of Care for every coach in the coaching industry. I have a vision of every coach being Trauma-Informed.

How Trauma-Informed Work Saved My Marriage, Career, and Sense of Self
What if the life you’re living right now isn’t the one you’re meant to stay in?
In this deeply personal episode, I share my story of becoming trauma-informed and how it changed everything—my marriage, my parenting, my relationship with myself, and even the continent I live on.
This past decade has been the most transformative of my life. I open up about:
- My breaking points
- Why learning about trauma, anxiety, and depression was the catalyst for healing.
- The choices that catapulted me into an entirely different life (including moving to France!).
- What I’ve learned about re-parenting myself, setting boundaries, and finding freedom in my body.
- Why trauma-informed work is essential in our homes, workplaces, and communities.
This isn’t a polished “10 steps to healing” conversation. It’s raw, emotional, and honest. My hope is that as you listen, you’ll see reflections of your own journey and feel inspired to take the next brave step and learn what I did (and more) in my upcoming "LAST LIVE" Trauma-Informed Coach Certifications!
