Can trauma you experienced as a kid still affect you now? What about the traumatic experiences of our parents and grandparents? Is there a way to undo what California Surgeon General Dr. Nadine Burke Harris calls the “toxic stress response”?  

In this conversation, Kate and Nadine discuss:
Why “picking yourself up by your bootstraps” is an incomplete (and unhelpful) story
A better way to define resilience
How your zip code might determine your health
How fostering nurturing relationships help heal our bodies 
What baby rats can teach us about learning to change 




Kate ends with a Blessing for if You had a Painful Childhood. And whew, will this episode crack you open and heal the tender parts of you you didn’t know needed it.
