Real talk. Let's address the elephant in the room to the growing "sickness" in our society, address root issues and provide sustainable solutions. We hope by addressing the intersectionality and connect the dots like a web of many of society’s challenges, we can help others understand the trauma infection that impacts all areas of life – addiction, domestic violence, racism, homelessness, sexual abuse, chronic health issues, cancer, environmental issues, climate change and more. In this NEW collaborative program, we hope by highlighting these infected areas and what they share in common, a new perspective of solutions, healing, and resolutions can be birthed. Each episode addresses a certain trigger while offering the spiritual medicine with at least 3 tips or actionable steps our listeners can take and implement. Vision: To break the unrecognized endemic of unresolved unhealed trauma & create sustainable systems for recovery, healing & empowerment. Mission: To help others rediscover the power that lies within and to find that treasure buried in the depths of the shadows. To help them become their own superhero.

    WE: We The People

    What does it mean to recognize our shared humanity in a world increasingly divided? Join me in conversation with my mentor, friend, and teacher, Frank Arjava Petter, author of "WE, We the People", as we explore belonging vs. conformity, self trust, compassion, personal responsibility, and the divisions impacting our world, including within spiritual and healing communities. Together, we explore how to acknowledge harm without losing compassion, establish boundaries without abandoning connection, and sow good seeds even when we cannot control the outcome. This is a conversation about looking inward, taking ethical action, and remembering that meaningful change begins with each of us. 🎧 Find Triggers and Spiritual Medicine on most streaming platforms, YouTube, and Substack.

    For a Loving Future & Truth-Telling as Medicine

    Triggers and Spiritual Medicine In this episode, Laura sits down with Sayra Pinto, founder of A Loving Future and creator of Poetic Futurism, for a raw, wide-ranging conversation about truth-telling as medicine. They start with the triggers: the emotional weight of recent headlines, the ways race gets weaponized in political discourse, and the isolation that comes from speaking hard truths in activist and healing spaces. From there, we move into the medicine Sayra's framework of Poetic Futurism, which calls us to own our reality, tell the truth, and tend to the consequences of our actions in order to build something sustainable. Together they explore the deep threads connecting domestic violence, colonialism, and generational trauma; the harm that can happen even within healing and social justice communities; and what authentic solidarity looks like when it's not performative. Sayra shares how cross-partisan friendships and unlikely alliances have deepened her faith in people, even amid painful ruptures and professional loss. This is a conversation about staying rooted when the world pulls you in every direction and choosing connection over division, every time. 💛 If this episode moved you, please follow or subscribe so you never miss what's next, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

    A Conversation Nobody's Having About Lindsay Clancy

    Lindsay Clancy's trial is unfolding in a Massachusetts courtroom right now, and most of the public conversation is stuck on guilt or innocence. This episode goes underneath that question, into the conversation nobody's having: what happens when a woman's postpartum hormonal crisis gets treated as a psychiatric illness instead of a physical one, and what "she had support" actually means in a culture that dismantled real community care for mothers generations ago. With Saturn newly retrograde in Aries, we're being asked to look honestly at where women's authority over their own bodies has been handed to systems that were never built to understand them. In this episode: • Why this isn't an analysis of the trial, and why the story underneath it matters regardless of the verdict • The physical, hormonal reality of postpartum that gets relabeled as mental illness • The throughline from witch trials to hysteria diagnoses to modern overmedication • What "she had support" gets wrong, and what real community care for new mothers used to look like • How Saturn retrograde in Aries is asking us to audit where we've outsourced women's autonomy • What moving forward, collectively, actually requires of each of us ✅ Like this episode if it moved something in you ✅ Subscribe so you don't miss what's coming next ✅ Follow the show ✅ Share it with a mother, or anyone, who needs to hear this ✅ Comment and let me know what resonated and what didn't, your engagement directly shapes the episodes I'm currently working on.

    The In-Between Space: Transitions, Discernment & Energy Update

    This episode of "Triggers and Spiritual Medicine" featured Laura Bonetzky-Gaffney discussing the current collective transition and energy update for mid-year.  Laura Bonetzky-Gaffney addressed feelings of exhaustion, uncertainty, and nervous system fatigue many people are experiencing, describing a sense of being "suspended between old identities and emergence of new self." She emphasized that the discomfort of transition often feels messy rather than mystical due to attempts to control outcomes and lack of community support systems.  Laura Bonetzky-Gaffney shared insights about the importance of discernment, slowing down, and sitting with uncertainty rather than rushing to find answers. She outlined key themes for June and July, including endings, elder transitions, and the need for authentic community and genuine connection.  The episode concluded with practical tools for self-care and reflection questions to help listeners navigate the current transitional period. https://youtu.be/OMhpCHmAdYA?si=_XwS7quAcjnt4U-W https://triggersandspiritualmedicine.buzzsprout.com/ ✔️ Subscribe  ✔️ Share  ✔️ Engage ✔️ Support ABOUT TRIGGERS & SPIRITUAL MEDICINE PODCAST: Real talk.

    Because You’re a Man, This Is Your Moment: Actionable Steps You Can Take Today

    In this episode of Triggers and Spiritual Medicine, host Laura Bonetzky-Gaffney and guest Ukumbwa Sauti come together for a grounded and honest conversation about rape culture, accountability, and the role men can play in creating real change. This episode invites listeners into a deeper understanding of how harm shows up in everyday life not just in extreme cases, but in language, silence, dismissal, and the normalization of harm toward women and girls. Rather than staying at the level of awareness alone, Laura and Ukumbwa focus on what comes next: ACTION. Together they explore practical, real-world steps men, parents, and women can take today such as believing survivors, interrupting harmful behavior in the moment, supporting organizations that serve survivors, engaging with policy and legislation, and actively unlearning patterns rooted in patriarchy. The conversation also highlights the importance of raising the next generation differently.  That means teaching consent EARLY, modeling emotional responsibility, and challenging harmful ideas about masculinity in homes, schools, and communities. At its core, this episode is a call to responsibility without shame, and action without delay.

    Accessing the Inner Wise Woman

    In this episode of Triggers in Spiritual Medicine, host Laura Bonetzky-Gaffney explores the powerful theme of Remembering the Inner Wise Woman. Across generations, the intuitive wisdom and leadership of women has often been silenced, persecuted, or erased through systems of control and historical trauma. From the persecution of healers during the European witch hunts, to institutions like the Magdalene Laundries in Ireland, to the suppression of Indigenous spiritual traditions through European colonization of the Americas, the echoes of these events still live in our collective and ancestral memory. In this deeply reflective episode, Laura invites listeners to explore how these histories have shaped the way many women relate to their intuition, voice, and spiritual authority today. Through guided questions and storytelling, she encourages listeners to reconnect with the ancient wisdom carried within their bodies, lineage, and lived experiences. Listeners are invited to explore three ways to reconnect with the Inner Wise Woman: • Listening to the wisdom of the body • Reconnecting with ancestral knowledge and lineage • Creating space for silence, stillness, and deep inner listening The episode also includes a guided drum meditation designed to help listeners quiet the thinking mind and connect with the deeper voice of the Inner Wise Woman within. Laura concludes with an invitation for those who feel called to continue this exploration in community. She will be presenting further on this topic at the Inspired Life! Women’s Weekend of Love, Light & Laughter in Quincy on April 11–12, where participants will have an opportunity to go deeper into the work of reclaiming feminine wisdom, spiritual sovereignty, and ancestral remembering. This episode is an invitation to reflect on a powerful question: What if the wisdom you have been searching for has been within you—and within your ancestral line—all along?

    Making Your Life A Living Prayer

    What does it mean to make your life a living prayer? In this deeply layered conversation, Laura welcomes Rosanne Romiglio-Ashley, author, artist, and spiritual teacher who writes under the ancestral name of her great great grandmother, Marie Dion. Together they explore what it means to walk between worlds with integrity, to bridge the seen and unseen, and to reclaim the wisdom of lineage without appropriation. Rosanne shares her journey of reconnecting with her Indigenous heritage, being called by her ancestors, and honoring her family’s survival story. She speaks openly about ancestral guidance, the responsibility that comes with spiritual gifts, and the ripple effect of healing across generations. The conversation weaves through prayer as gratitude rather than petition, cultural conditioning around spirituality, and the courage required to live in alignment with spirit. Rosanne recounts the ten year journey of returning a sacred pipe to its rightful home in the Black Hills, an experience that became the foundation of her book What’s Sacred. Laura and Rosanne also discuss alternative healing paths, overcoming trauma, navigating triggers, and the importance of reconnecting with one’s own cultural roots rather than appropriating another’s traditions. They explore the concept of life review, personal accountability, and how everyday choices shape both personal and collective healing. This episode is a call back to simplicity. Journaling by hand. Practicing gratitude. Listening for ancestral whispers. Living with integrity. Because meaningful spiritual growth does not come from grand gestures. It comes from consistent, courageous presence. Rosanne will be sharing more of her teachings at Healing with Spirit Studio in Hingham on March 28th, including insights from What’s Sacred and Make Your Life a Living Prayer. This is a conversation about remembrance. About responsibility. About reconciliation. About love. And about making your life the prayer itself. ABOUT TRIGGERS & SPIRITUAL MEDICINE PODCAST: Real talk.
