On this episode of Knowing Me, Knowing You, Trent is once again joined by Dr Faith Galliano Desai, a clinical psychologist and trauma-informed educator, to continue unpacking the relationship between our trauma, our nervous system and our healing. For this second part of the conversation, Trent and Dr Faith discuss:

What happens if we have unresolved trauma,
* The role of our nervous system in protecting us,
* How to tell the difference between being regulated and dysregulated,
* What “burn out” looks like and how we might experience it,
* Why it’s important to spend time with other people and by ourselves, as well as
* The role of self-compassion in healing.
