Andrew Bennett

Abandonment, Misfortune, and a Vanishing Act for Trauma

At what moment do you admit, “yes, I have trauma?” It took decades for Andrew Bennett to identify and acknowledge he has experienced trauma. Yet, living through so many extreme traumatic challenges from a young age, like the loss of family both metaphorically and literally, not only shaped Bennett into the person he is today but molded his view on how to live and approach trauma. Listen in as Bennett shares the three-part phrase that has guided his personal and professional life and how his big and small traumas still impact him equally today at 60-years-old. A note of caution that content in this episode may be sensitive to some listeners.
