Exploring Trauma: Understanding, Managing, and Recovering with Rosie Yeung

Send us a Text Message.Welcome to a journey of understanding trauma and its many manifestations with our esteemed guest, Rosie Yeung, a certified trauma recovery coach. We explore the concept that trauma isn't solely a result of bad experiences, but also stems from the absence of good things that didn't happen. Picture the burnout from a job you're passionate about or the unequal treatment from a system you're part of, these can trigger trauma and take a toll on your mental health. Rosie opens up about her journey, detailing her experiences in the corporate world where she endured systemic inequity and discrimination for two decades. Together, we unpack the cognitive dissonance that ensues when there's a clash between our beliefs and the realities of our environments. With candid conversation, we shed light on the signs of trauma, from feelings of guilt and shame, to perfectionism and hyper-vigilance. We also delve into the connections between trauma and mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. On the path to recovery, we navigate strategies to manage trauma and stress. Learn about the immense courage required to uncover your personal triggers and seek help. Discover the importance of supportive communities, and how self-awareness can be a powerful tool in identifying mental health issues. Encourage yourself to take a step forward, to ask for help, to provide support to others. This conversation aims to empower you to tackle trauma, not just for yourself, but also to help those around you.
