In today's encore presentation of the Speak Out Loud podcast, Stacee and Doug share an interview with friend and LPC Phoebe Barron on the impacts and pain of trauma, felt even many years after its original source and cause.

Trauma.... it sounds so extreme. And to those who experience trauma's pain and power, it can be just that daunting. Through this interview with LPC and trauma specialist Phoebe Barron, Stacee and Doug hope to start the conversation to begin the healing process. Getting help and finding hope are possible for the impacts of trauma in your life or the life of a loved one or friend!

Trauma can be experienced in an instant or be the result of long periods of hurt or neglect. It can be recent, or it can be buried in your past. Overcoming trauma's impact and influence almost always requires walking the recovery journey with someone else - to bring it into the light and remove its power from your life.

As you listen to today's episode, we believe you'll hear both information and resources on dealing with your or a loved one's trauma, and you'll be encouraged in knowing you are not walking this journey alone.
