#184 Why Therapy Isn’t Helping: Social Worker to Trauma Coaching & Awareness with Lisa Kuzman, BA, LISW
“The more you do healing around and understanding your trauma and you know when your triggers present and what they look like for you; then, you can manage them without as much disruption.”
In this week’s episode of the Less Stressed Life Podcast, our guest Lisa Kuzman, BA, LISW, Leadership Coach shares about the common but not so talked about experience of trauma. As a women’s leadership coach, Lisa is on a mission to make learning about trauma “fun” and inviting while still respecting the complexity and reverence it deserves. She’ll help bring awareness to what trauma exactly is, what’s happening in our brains when being triggered by our past, naming and claiming our experiences + more! If you’re a healthcare professional, you won’t want to miss this one as Lisa also dives into how trauma can present itself in working with clients. Learn to not trigger your clients but instead be a safe and empowering resource.
Lisa shared some helpful tips on:
- What happens in our brain with a trauma response
- Fear vs anxiety
- Red flags: 70% people have experienced trauma and every person experiences the event differently
- Moving out of generalized social work into life coaching then leadership coaching
