A Trauma-Informed Future
As AI, workplace stress, and moral injury reshape our lives, we need a cohesive solution that will restore trust.
Trauma-informed care can't just live in theory or trainings anymore. It needs to be practical, actionable, and woven into everything we do—at work, at home, in our communities.
This podcast is for people who value trust and safety, who lead with humanity, and who want real strategies they can use in everyday life.
We're not here for more theory. We're here for real tools, honest conversations, and the kind of shifts that actually change how we show up.
When we show up, when we practice caring as the powerful skill it is, we don't just change individual interactions. We shift culture. We build the sustainable, equitable, and humane future we all deserve.
Because a trauma-informed future isn't just possible—it's already being built by people like you.

A Trauma-Informed Future
Who Cares?
Welcome back to a new season of A Trauma-Informed Future! After a restorative pause, Katie is offering transparent updates about the behind-the-scenes shifts that have unfolded since the last episode. Acknowledging the deep distrust shaping our world-from politics to community safety to information itself-Katie reminds us that trust is built slowly, at the pace of the nervous system, through aligned intentions and actions. She reflects on the collective trauma of the current moment, the exhaustion and hopelessness that doom-scrolling can amplify, and the grounded hope that trauma-informed practice continues to offer as people make daily choices toward humanity, safety, and care. Katie shares the evolution of her work, including the emergence of TRUST™ (Trauma-Informed Relational Upskilling and Systems Transformation) as the aligned home for her methodology, the beta launch of TRUST Works, and the growing community of trusted partners. Centering the power of caring as courageous rather than “soft,” Katie calls listeners into mindful action, inviting them to reflect on where their care lives, how they can use their power within their spheres of influence, and how choosing trauma-informed care in small everyday moments contributes to a broader trust swell.
