Innate Wisdom Podcast

Post Traumatic Stress and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder gets a lots of press. Yet Post Traumatic Growth is more common. What is Post Traumatic Growth? While it may be mistaken for resilience, they are not the same. Resiliency is one's ability to bounce back. Post Traumatic Growth occurs after experiencing a  traumatic event. There is an inventory associated with it - the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory of trauma. The inventory is useful in "assessing positive outcomes reported by persons who have experienced traumatic events". The inventory scales 21 item ranging from New Possibilities, Relating to Others, Personal Strength, Spiritual Change, and Appreciation of Life. 

"Women tend to report more benefits than do men, and persons who have experienced traumatic events report more positive change than do persons who have not experienced extraordinary events. The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory is modestly related to optimism and extraversion. The scale appears to have utility in determining how successful individuals, coping with the aftermath of trauma, are in reconstructing or strengthening their perceptions of self, others, and the meaning of events."  (J Trauma Stress. 1996 Jul;9(3):455-71. doi: 10.1007/BF02103658)

This week’s Innate Wisdom Podcast is an interview with Katy Roser, which I did last year.  I really enjoyed talking to Katy about her life, her work as a coach and her role as a Mum.  Katy is passionate about helping people of all ages naturally fall back into their own innate wisdom.  Katy has a real gift for connecting with her clients and being able to explain this approach clearly and directly.  

 To find out more about Katy, this is what she says in her own words on her Facebook page:

“I run a coaching business where I help people to reconnect with their natural resilience, wellbeing and confidence, so that they can experience more of what truly matters in their personal and/or business lives.

I work with people of all ages, including children, and recently created "Resilience for All", a practical, fun and empowering programme for upper primary school learners AND teachers.

I hope you enjoy the podcast, and – as ever – if you have any questions, please get in touch.
