Ep. 19: Breaking the Trauma Cycle - Dr Nat Green on Post-traumatic Growth & Holistic Healing
In this powerful and raw conversation, Nichi welcomes back Dr. Nat Green — trauma breakthrough coach, bestselling author, podcast host of Growing Tall Poppies, and creator of the ABS Method and the Seven Archetypes of Transformation. With over 30 years in the trauma space and lived experience of complex trauma and invisible illness, Dr. Nat shares her deeply personal story of hitting rock bottom after serious health complications, burnout, and medical gaslighting — and how she used her own breakthrough strategies to rebuild her life and nervous system from the inside out. Whether you're a health professional, trauma survivor, or someone navigating invisible illness, this episode is a beacon of validation, hope, and holistic insight. Healing is possible — and it can become the foundation for a meaningful, thriving life.
Key Takeaways:
- You Can Rise After Trauma: Healing doesn’t have to take years. Accelerated trauma strategies create profound shifts, even when traditional methods fall short.
- Trauma Lives in the Nervous System: Emotional residue from our own experiences and the stories we witness in others (vicarious trauma) accumulate in our nervous systems. Left unprocessed, it contributes to burnout, chronic pain, emotional dysregulation, and health crashes.
- Medical Gaslighting is Real: Dismissal and invalidation in the health system can compound trauma. Trusting your inner knowing and advocating for yourself is vital.
- Invisible Illness Deserves Visibility: Invisible conditions often get overlooked. Validation and holistic support can change outcomes.
- Burnout Isn’t a Buzzword: Especially for health professionals and helpers, burnout is often a symptom of deeper unresolved trauma and nervous system overload — not just poor self-care.
- Healing is Holistic: True recovery includes the head, heart, and gut — our three brains. Reintegrating all parts of ourselves is key to sustainable wellbeing.
- Know Your Trauma Archetype: Dr. Nat’s 7 archetypes help people understand their unique healing blueprint.
