Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg
Our Purpose
Trauma Interrupted with Jan Broberg exists to change the way trauma is understood, discussed, and healed. It is the primary public-facing voice of the foundation and the main audience entry point into the JBF ecosystem. The show bridges lived experience, survivor testimony, education, systems critique, recovery tools, and cultural conversation into one platform.
Why It Matters?
Trauma narratives are often fragmented, sensationalized, or oversimplified. Survivors are either ignored or reduced to their worst moments. Trauma Interrupted reframes trauma as a human experience, not an identity, and recovery as a collective responsibility, not an individual burden.
The podcast is not just storytelling, it is movement-building media.

Today, Jan is again joined by Dr. Ute Liersch, a Chartered Counselling and Coaching Psychologist. In the second part of their conversation, Jan and Dr. Ute delve into the practicalities of healing. They discuss how to navigate major life decisions without the burden of hindsight, and Dr. Ute shares her powerful "Google Calendar" method for becoming your own witness. She reveals how volunteering in Sri Lanka after surviving cancer restored her smile and spirit. The dialogue emphasizes a body-first approach to trauma, explaining why we must listen to our body's language. They conclude by exploring how creative expression aids healing and the importance of "witnessing" over fixing, as Dr. Ute introduces her new book Minimalist Guide to Building Resilience.
