Overcoming Unresolved Traumas (Feat. Allison Sweet Grant)

Trauma has a way of shaping our lives, often in ways we don’t fully realize. Allison Sweet Grant, a psychiatric nurse practitioner and accomplished writer, joined us this week to discuss her debut novel, I Am The Cage, a deeply personal story inspired by her own medical trauma as a child. Through fiction, she explores resilience, self-discovery, and the power of rewriting our own narratives.

In this episode, Allison shares how her personal journey led to a deeper understanding of healing and self-acceptance. Whether you’ve experienced trauma firsthand or simply want to learn how storytelling can be a transformative tool, her insights will inspire you to embrace your journey and turn past struggles into strength.

Listen to this episode to learn: how unresolved trauma can impact our lives, why storytelling is a powerful tool for healing, and how self-acceptance plays a key role in personal and professional growth.
