The chapter opens with a striking observation: the life we experience, both when we are awake and asleep, is not purely our own creation but instead a dream—constantly shaped by our thoughts, perceptions, and the collective influences of society.

EPILOGUE: CHOICES TO BE MADE
EPILOGUE: CHOICES TO BE MADE We are on the verge of becoming a trauma-conscious society. Almost every day one of my colleagues publishes another report on how trauma disrupts the workings of mind, brain, and body. The ACE study showed how early abuse devastates health and social functioning, while James Heckman won a Nobel Prize for demonstrating the vast savings produced by early intervention in the lives of children from poor and troubled families: more high school graduations, less criminality,…-

This process of self-discovery is crucial in both professional and therapeutic theater, where acting becomes more than just a performance; it becomes a method of healing and…

My responsibilities involved preparing and monitoring study participants while analyzing their EEG, or electroencephalogram, readings. Subjects would come in, I’d attach electrodes to their scalps and around their eyes, and set up machines to record brain activity throughout the night, all while analyzing the…

Chapter 18: Filling in the Holes: Creating Structures. Addressing trauma is more than just remembering the past—it involves confronting the deep voids left by feelings of neglect, fear, and abandonment. Growing up without affection, in a world where your pain went unseen, often leaves a person struggling to feel loved or wanted. The emotional scars from such experiences can distort one's sense of self-worth and agency, creating a lifelong challenge in forming a healthy identity. Research by Judy Herman…

Chapter 17: Putting the Pieces Together: Self-Leadership. In life, we all experience moments where parts of ourselves seem to take over. For example, when confronted with trauma, we develop coping mechanisms that help us survive but may also fragment our sense of self. One of the key aspects of self-leadership is understanding and managing these internal parts, each with its own needs and responses. This process of integration is central to healing, especially for those who have faced significant trauma or…
