    Fear of Not Getting it Right, Becoming the Compassionate "Other" & Shining a Light on Shame Ep. 005

    Fear of Not Getting it Right, Becoming the Compassionate "Other" & Shining a Light on Shame Ep. 005

    Welcome back to Little Tea Trauma Podcast!

    This week's little "t" trauma episode is all about releasing ourselves from perfectionism, shame, and cultivating a strong compassionate self. Laura discusses a little "t" trauma from her childhood, that illuminated for her all the ways she was afraid to not get things "right." We discuss the nature of being interelational and how instead of critical feedback, a healthy response is to model a different behavior or model the course correction within yourself first. Laura and Krista wrap on shining a light on shame, removing all elements of secrecy, silence, and judgment. Laura and Krista also address some listener questions!

    Honoring your needs, stories we tell ourselves, & cultivating vulnerability in safe spaces Ep. 001

    Welcome to the first episode of Little Tea Trauma Podcast!

    This week's little "t" trauma is centered around asking for what we want, not saying "no" to ourselves, finding safety in friendship and learning how to express our vulnerabilities with people who have the capacity to receive it. Laura and Krista discuss how trauma is so multi-faceted, the assumptions we make when we are feeling activated, and how our brain will generalize and distort our experience when we feel overwhelmed.
