Episode notes
Trauma Can Lead To Growth
- Post-traumatic growth means life can become better after trauma because of the growth it produces.
- Trauma can catalyze dramatic positive changes when processed and integrated.
Move From Avoidance To Processing
- Avoidance is a short-term survival strategy but prolongs post-traumatic stress when maintained long-term.
- Seek professional guidance to re-experience and process trauma safely and move toward growth.
Meaning Transforms Suffering
- Survivors often transform meaning, gaining strength, empathy, and appreciation from suffering.
- Post-traumatic growth reframes trauma as a basis for psychological gains, not permanent illness.
