Listener Questions: Trauma and Relationships

In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Dan Allender and Rachael
Clinton Chen continue to address themes and topics related to
listener questions. Today, Dan and Rachael take on the question:
How do I engage the relational debris of trauma? Whether you are
on a healing journey yourself or are supporting a spouse, family,
or friends, our hosts talk about how you can engage both the
beauty and brokenness of stories of harm when you are not sure
either how to receive or be a good support. Throughout their
conversation, you’ll also hear Rachael and Dan address the
obstacles to and cost of healing from trauma and how to love well
in the midst of trauma.
