EPISODE 11: CONTENT WARNING
This episode includes discussions about complex trauma. While we don’t get into specifics, we do explore how sustained, severe childhood abuse impacts the brain and what is being done to support survivors. Listener discretion advised. 

Every time I talk with Amy Bradley, I hear about some new program she’s developed or a new plan she’s created to help bring love and healing to people who’ve survived the unimaginable. She founded Hesed Place only a few years ago, and has already received national attention for her trauma-informed town-within-a-town model. She is a visionary leader whose passion for hurting people has resulted in training numerous community partners how to provide trauma-informed care. 

Although we start out talking about coffee, Carolina Pottery mugs, and Tanzanian art, our main conversation revolves around Amy’s decision to found a nonprofit organization and develop a unique model for helping survivors of complex trauma — one could be replicated nationwide. I can’t wait for you to meet Amy Bradley, the founder and executive Director of Hesed Place in New Bern, North Carolina.
