Race and Trauma with Dr. Nathalie Edmond

In this episode of Going Inside: Healing Trauma From The Inside Out, I sit down with Dr. Nathalie Edmond to explore the intersection of race and trauma. We discuss how understanding racial dynamics can help us navigate difficult conversations and promote healing. Dr. Edmond also shares insights from her new book Mindful Race Talk on approaching race-related topics with curiosity and compassion.

Key Takeaways:

1. Curiosity Over Defensiveness
   Approaching conversations about race with curiosity helps reduce defensiveness and fosters meaningful dialogue.
2. Building Capacity for Discomfort
   Learning to sit with discomfort is essential for addressing difficult topics like race and trauma.
3. The Role of Repair in Relationships
   Repairing ruptures in relationships, especially around race, is crucial for healthy, ongoing connection.
