The Faith and Trauma Center Podcast is a series of conversations between two best friends that explore the intersections of faith/spirituality, trauma, and mental health! We visit a new theme each month, often talking about issues of social justice and advocacy, and then explore that topic over the course of 4 conversations, 1) From a faith/clergy perspective, 2) From a mental health perspective, 3) From a lived experience perspective, and 4) A story or conversation with a guest!
