Can healing yourself really help heal the world?This week, Thomas sits down with Amandine Roche, a human rights and women’s empowerment expert with more than 20 years of experience with the United Nations and European Union.

She and Thomas explore the need for collective spaces and new skills to digest world events and prevent the repetition of painful social and political patterns.It’s an empowering conversation that highlights the absolute necessity of self-alignment and inner healing in humanitarian work and any type of effort toward peace and harmony in a world in crisis.✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/TiD4qCktYCYVideo episodes are typically posted at 8am PT/ 11am ET✨ Available Now: Love, Trauma, and Healing, a self-paced online course from Thomas and couples therapy expert Terry Real. ✨Learn the practices to heal past wounds and more deeply connect with yourself, your partner, and the world at large.Experience how Thomas and Terry combine methods from psychotherapy and spiritual practices to bring your relationships to the next level.Learn more and access the course here:👉 https://www.lovetraumahealing.com/podcast✨ Sign up for updates by visiting our website: 👉 https://pointofrelationpodcast.com ✨ Amandine Roche is a Human Rights and women’s empowerment expert with 20 years of experience in conflict contexts across Asia, Africa, Europe, and South America.

What happens when we see our individual struggles reflected in humanity’s collective crises? How does our individual healing create collective healing?This week, Thomas shares why we need to unearth the trauma that’s deeply entrenched in our societies and cultures so that it can be processed, integrated, and transformed into growth. We may be familiar with this process in our own healing journey—now it’s time to do the work as a collective.Thomas explores a technique that he calls “systemic sensing,” a way of feeling through archaeological and ancestral layers to bring regulation to the collective nervous system as we reckon with global challenges.This episode is an invitation to be a part of a global detox—a difficult but essential process that can generate post-traumatic learning, development, and even flourishing.✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/PRGd0R6yKCoVideo episodes are typically posted at 8am PT/ 11am ET✨ Sign up for updates by visiting our website:👉 https://pointofrelationpodcast.com Thomas Hübl, PhD, is a renowned teacher, author, and international facilitator who works within the complexity of systems and cultural change, integrating the core insights of the great wisdom traditions and mysticism with the discoveries of science.

“For complex PTSD, you have to establish a relationship. And only after trust has been established can you do the trauma-focused work.”This week, Thomas sits down with Dr. Judith Lewis Herman, an author and senior lecturer in psychiatry and Harvard Medical School, to explore her groundbreaking work on the psychology and social and cultural aspects of Complex PTSD, or CPTSD. Unlike the better-known diagnosis of PTSD, CPTSD arises from prolonged, repeated trauma that erodes one’s sense of self and ability to trust.So, how should we approach healing and therapy for this uniquely challenging diagnosis?Dr. Herman believes there is hope, and it comes from the healing power of relationships…a tough pill to swallow for those whose trauma arose from abusive or coercively controlling relationships. But therein lies the key to healing—a therapeutic bond where the patient’s experience is validated, their safety is paramount, and trust is carefully built up through mutuality.But it’s not just therapy where healing can occur. Thomas and Dr. Herman discuss the importance of acknowledgment for people who’ve experienced ongoing trauma and how lifting shame from victims and survivors and transferring it to the perpetrators is an essential shift with powerful healing potential. They also explore social movements, like the women's and civil rights movements, that can lead to helpful reforms and the development of new support systems for trauma survivors.✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/HcTmrzBQ2GUVideo episodes are typically posted at 8am PT/ 11am ET✨ Sign up for updates by visiting our website: 👉 https://pointofrelationpodcast.com ✨ Judith Lewis Herman, M.D., is a Senior Lecturer in Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and was Director of Training at the Victims of Violence Program at Cambridge Hospital.
