Point of Relation with Thomas Huebl Bonus Preview: Cheryl Strayed at the Collective Trauma Summit
Bestselling author Cheryl Strayed believes that writing your truth can set you free.
Today we’re sharing an excerpt from her conversation with Thomas at the upcoming Collective Trauma Summit. In it, she shares about a profound healing act that helped her process deep grief and trauma…writing. More specifically, the way that writing demands raw honesty and vulnerability, revealing our deepest truths about our human experiences.
It’s also an incredibly effective way to combat the isolation and loneliness that often accompany grief or trauma. In Cheryl’s case, sharing her truth in her book, Wild, inspired people to reach out to her with their own stories of loss and pain, creating unexpected, deeply authentic connections. And it’s through these connections that we can build much-needed shared spaces for healing individual and collective trauma.
