Ep 59 - Trauma informed change with Louise Marra Beyond Consultation

    • Government

The hidden influence of collective trauma

Permacrisis has been named the 'word of the year for 2022' by Collins Dictionary.

Are your surprised? It's been a time of crisis after crisis, each one piling in after the last.

Floods. Mass shootings. Earthquakes. Political upheavals. Pandemics. Cost of living pressures.

These events show up in our lives and create pain - so-called 'collective trauma'.

If we're lucky, the pain is short-lived and we move on.

But often the trauma lives on in us. Unprocessed and unresolved. It continues to influence us as individuals and as a society long after the news cycle has moved on.

Introducing Louise Marra

On today’s podcast, we dive into the topic of collective trauma with guest Louise Marra.

If you're skeptical about the relevance of trauma to your work, that's normal.

But Louise encourages us to create space for healing our collective trauma no matter what work you're involved in. And she shares some simple tips for giving this a go in a way that won't make people run for the hills.

If deeper and more meaningful work through harnessing the hidden power of healing our collective trauma lights your fire, buckle in for this kōrero with Louise. The opportunities for healing are all around us.

Content warning - we talk about death in this episode

This episode includes a discussion about death. We put an optimistic and empowering lens on its role in our work lives. But if that's not something you feel like jumping into today, this might not be the episode for you.
