In this deeply insightful conversation, licensed clinical social worker Joel Pieper breaks down the different types of trauma—beyond the obvious and into the subtle, often overlooked patterns that shape our lives. We explore:

• The difference between Big T and little t trauma
• How trauma shows up in your body, relationships, and behavior
• Why unresolved trauma often appears as anxiety, overthinking, emotional shutdown, or people-pleasing
• The critical role of nervous system regulation in sustainable healing
• Holistic, compassionate approaches to trauma recovery you can begin today

Whether you’re new to this conversation or have been walking your healing path for a while, Joel offers clarity, language, and actionable tools that help you reconnect to your body, your story, and your power.
