We have gotten original episodes up through September 2023, include classic favorite episodes like Dante and the Unfawning episodes. Our book study in the community is back after taking a summer break, and we are continuing with Laura Brown's "Not the Price of Admission". We have finally made it to chapter 3! You can hear her share about the book and why she recommends a slow and paced reading of it in her guest episode from earlier this year. Our new book, Mapping Mirrors: Attachment, Deprivation, Complex Trauma, & Dissociation is the focus of a Seattle group's book study, so that has been fun! You can purchase that book on our website HERE. As always, one book is donated for every purchase.

Dr. E explains DID in the context of shame theory. The name Dr. E is a reference to what she is called at work because of her PhD; she is not a medical doctor or giving any therapeutic advice. She explains her understanding of dissociation in the context of Patricia DeYoung’s shame theory, and explains why most “acting out” is really misattunement, and how healing comes through connection (attunement) with others. She references the “Still Face Experiment” which can be searched and found on YouTube. Some clarification between abuse and neglect is explained, but no graphic or personal examples are given.
