Decontextualized Episode 6 - TEDX Trauma and Truth with Natalia Rachel

Natalia Rachel Season 1 Episode 6
“Trauma-work is how we heal. Each person who commits to their own trauma-work becomes more peaceful, empathetic and more compassionate.”


In this episode of Decontextualized, Natalia Rachel gives her keynote speech prepared for TEDX PurdueU. She addresses concepts on trauma, where we are today as a humanity, and what we need to do in order to heal and become more peaceful, empathetic and compassionate humans. Her big idea is that as humanity continues to move through cycles of distress, disease, mental health crisis, inequity, violence and oppression, we need to look at root cause in order to heal. When we do our own healing work, we become the humans that break the cycle and learn how  to live and relate in ways that support others to heal too.
