In Episode 33 of Trauma and Social Work: A Mother and Son Dialogue Podcast, the kitchen conversation continues as KJ explores whether veganism and vegetarianism are the right paths for everyone seeking health and healing. 🥦✨

Tonya Octave, LCSW, breaks down the importance of diet in psychotherapy, trauma recovery, and spiritual well-being. Together, she and KJ discuss the cultural, emotional, and physical impact of food, highlighting how what we eat can either fuel our healing or deepen our struggles with depression, anxiety, and trauma cycles.

They explore questions like:
🔹 Is veganism really healthy for most people?
🔹 Can a busy life support a nourishing, plant-based lifestyle?
🔹 How do our emotional histories impact what we eat?

This honest, intergenerational dialogue is rooted in love, lived experience, and clinical insight, making it a must-watch for anyone navigating food choices and mental health.

🎥 Grab a tea, pull up a chair, and join us in the kitchen.
