Have past events tainted your present experience? Do you want a new perspective?
In Past Imperfect, Sam Seager and Jude Claybourne take an honest and personal look at recovery from trauma, addiction and narcissistic abuse from a refreshingly light perspective.
We’re two friends who love each other, have experienced trauma and have (ultimately) felt enriched by it.
We've found that moving the focus away from blame and towards taking responsibility for our own conscious growth can transform trauma from a crippling burden to a nourishing gift.

Series 2 Episode 1 Kinder Oracle
This is a reintroduction to the new series and we’re doing Kinder oracles! If you don’t know what that is, listen up - it’s an absolute joy! We talk a little bit about a pragmatic interpretation of divination as a whole.
We’ll be publishing a new episode every week, many of which we recorded back in February this year, covering topics from supporting friends in abusive relationships (and looking after yourself) to how narcissistic leaders are rife in spiritual communities. We’ll touch on Clare’s Law, 12-step programs, self-care and much more.
As always, there's a balance of seriousness and lightness and in this series, our intention is to balance our fascination with the effects of trauma with ways to generate your own recovery: the alchemy of transforming trauma.
No trigger warnings this week (unless you’re sensitive to the mention of chocolate nipples) but there’s quite a bit of packaging-related background noise.
Thanks to Tiu de Haan for the Kinder oracle suggestion. You can check her out on https://www.tiudehaan.com.
