Re-Release: Mary Firestone - "Trusting The Dawn: How to Choose Freedom and Joy After Trauma." Ep. 305

I'm Awake! Now What?

Thank you for listening! The podcast is on summer break and will return on September 15, 2024. We are revisiting some of our favorite interviews over the summer, we hope you enjoy these conversations!

Author and Psychologist Mary Firestone wrote "Trusting the Dawn: How to Choose Freedom and Joy After Trauma." This book is her personal account of post-traumatic growth, healing, self-love and self-discovery. Mary shares how although our inclination is to turn away from our trauma and pain, it still finds a way out; she gives the reader and listening audience the courage to face the hardness of our wounds, head on. She talks about staying integrated throughout the healing process and changing the internal narratives we tell ourselves about who we are when something bad happens to us. She leaves the audience with the healing tools of curiosity, compassion, self-trust, and deep self-love.
