Episode 1 Season 5: Harmful Statements Trauma-Uninformed People Say & What to Tell Yourself Instead
Manage episode 471832051 series 2969351
Description:
In this first episode of the season, we’re tackling the impact of words—how well-meaning but uninformed people and abusers use language to dismiss, shame, or control survivors. These statements can keep you stuck in self-doubt and isolation, making it harder to trust yourself and your healing process. We’ll break down common phrases that invalidate and gaslight, then reframe them with trauma-informed alternatives that affirm your experiences and support your growth. We break this down into two categories, phrases that well-meaning people who are not trauma-informed say and phrases that abusers use intentionally to cause harm. This episode is about recognizing the harm in these messages, rewriting the narrative, and choosing words that empower instead of diminish. Let’s start this season by standing in truth and reclaiming the language of healing so we can live the lives God intended for us.
