“Unless we talk about it, we won't get the care we need and deserve.”

Trauma extends so far beyond what people are willing to talk about. People with adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are far more likely to develop substance abuse problems and attempt suicide; not to mention increased susceptibility to heart disease, diabetes, and sleep issues. The problem? Trauma isn’t talked about and far too often, women dismiss their trauma and aren’t heard by their healthcare professionals.

Thankfully, Coleen LaCosta sits down with Meghan Rabbitt, editor at Maria Shriver’s The Sunday Paper, longtime women’s health journalist, and author of The New Rules of Women’s Health. Meghan shares all that her journey, experience, and research has taught her about trauma, its effect on women's health, and the importance of talking about our stories—no matter how much we think it doesn’t need to be talked about.

Plus, we discuss nutrition, diet, and sleep, as well as how women can be more heard and get better answers to their health related questions, especially in a world of information. Tune in, because you won’t want to miss this one.

“If people didn’t leave the military, PTSD wouldn’t be half the problem it is.”

PTSD doesn’t happen overnight. It creeps up on you silently, and once it strikes, it isn’t always evident. But it can be prevented and healed, and not just with medication or therapy. Dr. Charlie Powell, a triple-boarded physician and combat veteran suffered from PTSD, but nothing could heal him; none of the approaches doctors tried would help. He couldn’t sleep, he was numb, and he wasn’t truly living.

Dr. Charlie at last found healing, but not through traditional pathways. The PTSD healing he found was through non-traditional treatments like Ibogaine and the Stellate Ganglion Block. And that’s available to you, too.

Since, Dr. Charlie has dedicated his life to helping others heal from PTSD. Today, Coleen LaCosta and Dr. Charlie discuss the importance of community, sleep, and purpose when healing from PTSD. Tune in to hear that valuable conversation.
