Episode 241 - Heal Trauma Now And The Tiny Habit That Could Change YOUR Life!

Today, Elena sits down with Dr. John A. King, founder of the Give Them a Voice Foundation and a passionate advocate for trauma recovery and anti-trafficking work. In this candid and deeply moving conversation, John opens up about his own journey—from surviving years of childhood abuse and discovering his true heritage, to nurturing relentless resilience and finding purpose in advocacy.John shares how a single, quiet moment among blooming daffodils unlocked a flood of childhood memories and ultimately led him to reshape his life from the inside out. Together, Elena and John explore what it truly means to heal, the importance of self-advocacy and supportive community, and why authentic conversations around trauma—especially male trauma—matter now more than ever.Plus, John offers practical advice for those starting their recovery journey, discusses the challenges of working in the fight against human trafficking, and reveals why the grace of a second chance is one of the most beautiful gifts we can give—to others and ourselves.Whether you're a survivor, an ally, or someone looking to better understand trauma's impact, this conversation will move, inform, and inspire you.Time stamps:00:00 Discovery of Aboriginal Heritage04:59 "Define or Refine: Your Choice"09:48 Childhood Trauma and Silence13:28 "Lust for Talent, Not Person"16:52 "Daily Routine for Mental Health"18:51 Blue Light Disrupts Sleep Habits23:51 "Documentary Journey to Book Lessons"24:36 "Phoenix Collective's Mind Fire Challenge"30:48 Offering Hope Through Personal Struggles34:29 Living a Beautiful, Impactful Life35:25 Grateful for Podcast OpportunityConnect with Dr. John on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjohnaking/Personal website: https://drjohnaking.com/Foundation website: https://drjohnaking.com/gtavf/Follow Elena: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elenaagaragimova/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elenaagaragimova/Website: https://elenaagar.com/Listen on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shift-with-elena-agar/id1530850914Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5UKh6dWcuQwJlmAOqD8wijIf you like this video, please like, subscribe, comment, and share!
