In this episode of Delusional Optimism, Dr. B and Seth Creekmore talk about how we view and train trauma. They discuss how people are triggered and the differentiation between that with uncomfortable feelings. They also share what to do and what not to do when dealing with trauma.

“My generation is about ‘we’re creating safe spaces.’ Ok, yes. We also need to create brave spaces at the same time in the same space.” - Seth Creekmore [10:12]
